The 6.4L Power Stroke was the first engine in Ford’s history to feature a diesel particulate filter (DPF), an emission control device that captures soot from the exhaust stream.

Apr 28, 2024 · How does Ford DPF regeneration work? The diesel particulate filter (DPF) on Ford vehicles requires periodic regeneration to maintain correct operation. The emission control system automatically carries out this process. As soot gathers in the system, it begins to restrict the filter.

Mar 24, 2024 · The DPF system is designed to trap soot and prevent it from exiting the tailpipe and entering the atmosphere from diesel engines. It is a filtration system that captures and stores exhaust soot to reduce emissions from diesel cars.

Jul 11, 2014 · The DPF may need to be removed for ash cleaning at approximately 120,000 miles (193,000 km) or greater (actual mileage can vary greatly depending upon engine/vehicle operating conditions) and replaced with a new or remanufactured (ash cleaned) part.

Dec 23, 2024 · According to Automobilwoche, a grand total of 768,927 diesel-powered Ford vehicles have been recalled after the Federal Motor Transport Office (KBA) in Germany discovered that the faulty DPF in those models could emit emissions that exceed allowable levels and result in them not passing exhaust gas tests.

Dec 18, 2024 · The Ford Motor Company will end 2024 with a tremendously expensive recall. According to the Federal Motor Transport Authority of Germany, no fewer than 768,927 diesel vehicles produced from 2014...

Diesel Particulate filters (DPF) catch bits of soot in the exhaust. As with any filter they have to be emptied regularly to maintain performance. For a DPF this process is called 'regeneration' – the collected soot is burnt off at high temperature to leave only a tiny ash residue.

A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is fitted in the exhaust system to filter soot out of the exhaust gases to ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant EURO emission standards in New Zealand (Australian Design Rule: ADR 79/01-Emission Control for Light Vehicles).

Diesel Particulate Filter is an integral part of after-treatment and performs the key task of emission compliance with respect to entrapping/regenerating carbon soot and ensuring clean environment.

Hot exhaust gases can burn you badly. You may not be able to use manual regeneration if the service engine soon warning lamp appears in the instrument cluster display. Note: During the use of manual regeneration, you may observe a light amount of white smoke. This is normal.
