DPF Removal for Export Vehicle or Off Road Vehicles Only

We are able also to offer full removal and remapping of your DPF if the vehicle is for export outside of the UK or Europe.

This can also be applied to vehicles that are not used on UK roads and only on private areas whereby the low mileage causes DPF issues.
