    You cannot split the intetnals of a DPF on the accord. Its a single unit. I can clean these and have had success in doing so.

    I cleaned my dpf myself using wynns off car dpf cleaner. Its not an impossible job. Restored lots of power. If youre handy with spanners and have a bit of determination, its something that can be tackled on a driveway at home.

    Poor air conditioning performance and engine running hot

    Sounds liek your car is trying to do a regen of the DPF. Worst thing you can do is turn the car off. You need to go on a long motorway drive, keep revs high for at least 30 mins. Gas in your ac is low. Get it refilled otherwise will put strain on the system

    The 8th Gen Diesel is a good car. When on the test drive, its the usual things you would check. Listen out for unusual knocks or bangs going over humps and potholes. Suspension is a weak point in my opinion on these cars due to the compliance bush. They normally collapse and knock out your...
