Expert Kia DPF cleaning

The diesel particulate filter on your Kia — fitted with the CRDi diesel engine — captures soot from the exhaust and burns it off during regeneration. Kia CRDi engines respond well to a full off-car DPF clean. When the filter blocks, you'll often see a warning light, lose power, use more fuel, or drop into limp mode.

Rather than replacing an expensive factory part, our off-car cleaning process removes the trapped soot and ash and restores your Kia DPF to near-original flow — for a fraction of the cost.

Common signs on your Kia

Kia's CRDi diesels, shared closely with Hyundai's engineering, respond very well to a proper off-car clean — we routinely restore flow to near-factory levels on Sorento and Carnival filters that looked completely blocked on arrival.

A blocked filter on this engine family can trigger fault codes such as P2002, P244B — both indicate the DPF needs attention rather than a new part.
