❓ Frequently Asked Questions

► What causes GPF blockages in Hartley?

Short local journeys around Hartley, particularly towards Longfield and Fawkham, rarely give the engine enough sustained load to reach the temperatures needed for passive regeneration. Soot gradually accumulates in the filter until it starts to restrict exhaust 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 an on-site GPF clean take at a Hartley address?

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