JLM's DPF/GPF foam cleaner is a treatment for a diesel particulate filter or a petrol particulate filter that is clogging up with soot, carbon and other deposits. The foam goes into the exhaust system with the filter left in place, so it is a way to try clearing a struggling filter before paying for removal, off-car cleaning or a new one.

Good to know

• Is this the right fix for my DPF light? Read the fault codes first; if the code points to a pressure sensor, an injector, the EGR valve or a split pipe, cleaning the filter won't cure it, and the light will soon be back.
• How is it applied? Foam cleaners like this generally go into the exhaust ahead of the filter through a sensor opening, then the engine is run to clear the residue; follow the steps on the can exactly and work with the engine cool.
• What can't it do? It shifts soot and carbon, not the ash that builds up over high mileage, and it won't repair a cracked filter; a car used only for short trips will clog again unless it gets regular longer runs.

Which one?

If the problem is poor running from carbon on the valves rather than a blocked filter, the JLM Petrol/Diesel Direct Injection Valve Cleaner (J03190) treats the intake side instead.
