Hi, sorry if this has already been covered
I bought my 2.2 EXGT about 6 months ago, at the time i was doing 60miles a day round trip on the motorway and all was good.
Then in November I was unfortunately made redundant, I managed to get a new job in December which is now around a 30mile round trip in stop/start traffic and this has lead to the DPF check light on and limp mode. I never recieved any prior warning such as the DPF regen light which is annoying :huh:
Looking at all these issues, costs with DPF, etc. and also the type of driving im now doing I have decided to get rid of the DPF filter, remap and delete the DPF out of the ECU.
I have spoken to Celtic tuning and they will map and delete the DPF for £425 however I need to get the DPF gutted prior to them mapping.
So my question is this:
Can I take the DPF off and smash out the internal filters or do I need to cut it open to remove the filters and then weld it back up?
Many thanks for your help
