DPF Removal

[JakeWazza]

Ignoring the MOT failure etc I was wondering other than it can't fail what actual gains would you get from having the DPF removed?

I've read on the internet a possible 2-3mpg gain, and from 0-30 BHP gains depending on where you read it haha.

So I was wondering if anybody could give me a definitive answer on what would actually be gained from having it removed?

Thanks

And that's why we don't remove them.

Would guess that "Non-MOT" certified garages may well carry on
Not worth the risk for MOT garages
Just a matter of time before there will some form of emission test for DPFs being in situ i reckon

Not sure if it applies to all but you could tell the difference between them as the dpf removed DS3 was smoky whereas those fitted with them don't....

They r a load of sh*t just a way for manufactures to fleece you once again when they do go wrong.. and I am sure some times when they do go wrong they can set fire to your pride and joy...me personally I don't like them they are a wast of time again with anything it's personal choice... I would rather kill a tree than spend £1000 of my hard earned money on replacing it when it goes wrong

I think they're supposed to make the cars kinder to the environment hence the free road tax
