❓ Frequently Asked Questions

► Why do Faringdon cars so often develop blocked GPFs?

The A420 through Faringdon carries a lot of local traffic, but many journeys to Wantage, Shrivenham or the surrounding villages are relatively short and don't sustain the higher engine load needed for long enough. A petrol GDI engine requires 600°C+ exhaust temperature for the GPF to regenerate itself passively, so this driving pattern lets soot build up gradually.

► Will a blocked GPF cause my Faringdon car to fail its MOT?

Yes, a blocked or missing GPF is an automatic MOT failure. A professional clean typically costs £150 to £350, whereas leaving it too long can mean a replacement filter costing £800 to £2,500 or more.

► How long will a mobile visit to Faringdon take?

Most visits take 60 to 90 minutes. We run an OBD diagnostic first to confirm the GPF is at fault, carry out the clean, then verify the result afterwards with another diagnostic check before clearing any stored codes.
