A DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) traps harmful soot so it doesn't leave your exhaust. Inside it looks like a ceramic honeycomb - exhaust flows through tiny channels and soot gets caught on the walls. Over time it fills up, so the car runs a process called regeneration where the exhaust temperature rises and burns the soot into ash. If regen can't happen (lots of short trips), the filter clogs and you lose power. #shorts #dpf #diesel #dieselparticlefilter #cars #cartips #automotive #carmaintenance #mechanic #automotivefaults #carproblems #dieselengine
