The £30 alternative to a £1000 bill

The AA is advising motorists on its website that if they are buying a new car and planning to use it primarily for town-based or stop start driving that they should avoid a car fitted with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) because of the possible hassle of incomplete ‘DPF regeneration’. Good advice because ignoring the warnings will lead to an increase in the soot loading – the net result being a new DPF costing around £1000 or more. All is not lost! Kalimex is offering a prevention and cure treatment which retails at around £30 and is available from your local stockist. The JLM Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner 
can be added to the fuel tank at every service interval as a preventative treatment. However it can also be added when the DPF filter light is illuminated to cure the blockage. Good news for motorists as the weather turns colder, the roads become icier and stop start driving is the norm during busy periods.
