Understanding Diesel Exhaust Filters
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is a ceramic filter that has thousands of tiny channels or honeycomb-shaped openings that trap the soot onto the channel walls and prevent the particulate matter (down to 1 micron) from exiting out the tail pipe.

Andrew Markel discusses the importance of keeping the right amount of diesel exhaust fluid in the vehicle, and how the filter monitors the level and cleanliness of the fluid.
Managing (DPF) Diesel Particulate Filter Regeneration Cycles
The DPF is designed to store the soot and ash, to later burn them off during a regeneration cycle.
Diesel Air Filter Replacement
Here’s some diesel air filter replacement advice in order to keep these vehicles running as intended.
Exhaust Repair Options
If a replacement does not meet or exceed the flow characteristics of the original, it could mean more than a loss of power.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Changes
Modern diesel exhaust systems are complex and they include multiple sub systems to keep exhaust clean.

Be Careful When Replacing That Diesel Air Filter
Diesel engines have a certain level of differential pressure that needs to be maintained.
Diesel Engines And The EPA
Before the EPA started snooping around, there were relatively few restrictions on diesels. That’s starting to change.
