❓ Frequently Asked Questions

► Why do Cheriton Folkestone drivers get blocked GPFs?

Most local driving around Cheriton Folkestone is short and low-speed — trips to Folkestone, the school run, or quick errands. These stop-start conditions prevent petrol GDI engines from reaching the sustained exhaust temperatures needed for the GPF to burn off trapped soot, so deposits build up over months until the filter restricts flow.

► Will a blocked GPF cause an MOT failure?

Yes. An illuminated GPF warning light or engine management light is an automatic MOT failure. A professional GPF clean is typically £150–£350 — far cheaper than replacement at £800–£2,500+.

► How long does a mobile GPF clean take in Cheriton Folkestone?

Most GPF cleans take 60–90 minutes on-site in Cheriton Folkestone. We carry out a full OBD diagnostic first, clean the filter, then verify the result before we leave.
