Land Rover Range Rover Diesel Particulate Filter DPF

A DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) is a core part of your Land Rover Range Rover's exhaust system, designed to trap soot and pollutants produced by the diesel engine. It plays a key role in cutting harmful emissions and meeting environmental standards. Every modern Rover model, from the Discovery Sport to the Velar, comes fitted with a DPF.

Blockage usually comes from frequent short trips, which prevent the filter from reaching the required temperature to burn off accumulated particles. This issue leads to forced regeneration, limp mode, and potentially costly repairs. If your Range Rover has been mostly used in urban settings, consider incorporating longer drives to prevent build-up.

There are two main regeneration processes:

Passive regeneration – occurs naturally during extended high-speed driving.

Active regeneration – triggered by your vehicle's ECU when buildup reaches a critical level.

If both fail, your DPF may require cleaning fluid, a mobile cleaning service, or complete replacement. Krosfou offers professional cleaner options and guidance from DPF specialists.

To extend your DPF lifespan and maintain optimal performance:

Drive at sustained speeds to support regeneration

Use the correct low-ash engine oil

Book a yearly inspection

Check warning lights and act early

Regular maintenance helps reduce fuel consumption, prevents performance loss, and protects overall safety.

Look out for:

The "Exhaust Filter Full" alert

Power drop or limp mode activation

Increased diesel usage

Excessive smoke during acceleration

Use a diagnostic tool to retrieve error codes and generate a DPF health report. Acting fast helps avoid additional damage.

Yes. A faulty DPF increases exhaust back pressure, raises oil temperature, and strains engine components. Ignoring it could lead to turbo failure, loss of power, or even engine damage. Don't delay—clean, regenerate, or replace it promptly.

A DPF compensation claim is a formal request for reimbursement if you've experienced issues due to a defective DPF. You may be eligible if:

Your DPF failed despite correct usage

You've leased or owned a model known to have recurring problems

You have invoices or inspection reports proving the issue

Krosfou helps drivers like you explore eligibility and manage claims efficiently.

Common Range Rovers with frequent DPF problems include:

Evoque 2.2 Diesel (L538)

Range Rover Sport 3.0 SDV6

Land Rover Discovery 4 3.0L TDV6

TDV8 3.6 (Euro 4)

Not necessarily. A simple OBD scanner lets you check codes, confirm regeneration cycles, and even reset alerts. For advanced users, our support team provides step-by-step guides to help you manage your DPF system correctly.

Expect to pay between €700–€1,500, depending on your model and filter type. Our direct-sale pricing cuts out the middleman, avoiding dealer fees and additional charges. Plus, we include clear instructions to help with installation or to hand over to your mechanic.

Yes—especially if you're city-bound. Cold starts, stop-and-go driving, and rarely reaching regeneration speed all contribute to accumulation. Schedule longer drives a few times per month to support DPF health.

We recommend a full inspection or cleaner application every 12 months or 20,000 km, depending on usage. Early diagnosis helps reduce future costs and protects against sudden failures.

Several sensors and components play key roles:

NOx sensors: control emission levels

Pressure sensors: measure flow resistance

Temperature sensors: track optimal burn conditions

A single faulty sensor can trigger forced regen, fluid waste, and system alerts. Replacing these parts ensures everything works in harmony.
