If you're driving a Citroen Dispatch from 2016 onwards, you might encounter issues with the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This essential component is designed to capture and store exhaust soot to reduce emissions from diesel engines. However, when it encounters a fault, it can affect the performance and efficiency of your vehicle. Let's delve into what a DPF fault in your Citroen Dispatch might entail, its possible causes, and the symptoms to look out for.
A DPF fault can arise due to several factors, prominently including the style of driving and the type of journeys typically undertaken in the van. For vehicles often driven on short trips at low speeds, the DPF may not reach the temperature required to burn off the accumulated soot—a process known as 'regeneration.' Other contributing factors can include a failure of the DPF sensors, issues with the fuel system, or general wear and tear over time.
The most common symptoms that might signal a DPF fault in your Citroen Dispatch include a noticeable decrease in engine performance, higher fuel consumption, and the DPF warning light illuminating on your dashboard. In some cases, the engine might enter a ‘limp’ mode to prevent damage, limiting the speed at which you can drive.
Addressing a DPF fault typically involves a professional diagnostic check to pinpoint the exact cause of the issue. Depending on the diagnosis, the repair process might range from a simple manual regeneration to more extensive repairs such as replacing the DPF or rectifying other affected components of the exhaust system.
While these repairs can restore your vehicle's functionality, they can sometimes be costly and time-consuming, depending on the severity of the fault.
