❓ Frequently Asked Questions

► Why do so many Baldock drivers end up with a blocked GPF?

Most journeys around Baldock are short town-centre trips or quick runs out to Letchworth, Royston and Hitchin. These low-speed, stop-start drives rarely let a petrol GDI engine hold the sustained high exhaust temperature needed to burn off trapped soot, so the gasoline particulate filter gradually clogs.

► What happens if my car fails its MOT in Baldock because of the GPF?

A blocked or faulty GPF causes an automatic MOT failure under current emissions rules. A professional mobile clean typically costs £150–£350, versus £800–£2,500+ for a full dealer replacement, so it's worth having it checked before you book your MOT retest.

► How long does a mobile GPF clean take when you visit Baldock?

Our technician runs an OBD diagnostic first to confirm the GPF is genuinely blocked, then carries out the clean on-site — usually 60–90 minutes in total. We finish with a follow-up scan to verify the filter is clear before we leave.
