❓ Frequently Asked Questions

► What causes GPF blockages in Shirley?

Most driving in and around Shirley is short local trips toward Southampton city centre and Freemantle, which rarely give the engine the sustained running needed to reach the temperatures required for the GPF to self-clean. Soot deposits build gradually until the filter restricts exhaust flow.

► Can a blocked GPF fail my MOT?

Yes — a lit GPF or engine management warning light is an automatic fail under current MOT rules. Cleaning typically costs £150–£350, considerably less than a replacement filter at £800–£2,500+.

► How long will my GPF clean take at my Shirley address?

Most cleans are completed in 60–90 minutes at your Shirley address. We start with a full OBD diagnostic, clean the filter, then confirm the fault has cleared before we finish.
