How to Clean the Diesel Particulate Filter with Warm Up Additive

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Diesel particulate filter

In this video tutorial, you can see how to clean the diesel particulate filter with Warm Up additive: if your car has covered over 62,000 miles, the particulate filter warning light has come on continuously, and it struggles to turn off, it is time to perform a radical decarbonisation of the particulate filter. This Warm Up DPF regenerating additive, in a 1-litre bottle, is the ideal product for cleaning the DPF. To perform this cleaning operation, add the additive to warm engine oil, into the diesel fuel; then, you need to run the vehicle at 3,000 RPM for several minutes. This way, the particulate filter is decarbonised and returns to full efficiency.
