If you're driving a Nissan NV200 from between the years 2009 to 2021, you may encounter what is known as a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) fault. As a seasoned master tech mechanic with extensive experience, I aim to offer you a detailed yet understandable breakdown of this issue, its causes, symptoms, and repair processes.
The Diesel Particulate Filter is a crucial component designed to remove diesel particulate matter or soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine. However, the DPF in your Nissan NV200 can experience faults due to a variety of reasons which can impact performance and emissions.
The Nissan NV200 (2009 to 2021) DPF fault often arises from a few typical scenarios. These include frequent short journeys where the engine doesn't reach optimal operational temperatures, the use of incorrect oil type which can impede the regeneration process, or a failure in the DPF sensors. Noticing symptoms like poor engine performance, increased fuel consumption, or a noticeable increase in exhaust smoke can indicate a DPF issue.
Addressing a DPF fault typically includes inspection and possible replacement of the DPF itself, or resolving any underlying issues affecting its operation such as sensor malfunctions or exhaust system problems. Sometimes, a manual regeneration by a specialist might be required, which involves getting the filter up to a high temperature to burn off the soot particles effectively.
Dealing with a DPF fault can be both time-consuming and costly. If you've found yourself repeatedly heading to the garage for your Nissan NV200’s maintenance, have you thought about whether it might be easier to simply switch to a newer or different model?
