Our Services

Three ways we clean your DPF.

Pick the level that fits your vehicle, your blockage and your budget. Not sure? Send us your reg — we'll recommend the right option.

On-Car Chemical Clean

From £199

A deep chemical flush carried out without removing the DPF from the vehicle. Ideal for early-stage blockages and regular maintenance.

  • No DPF removal
  • Same-day service
  • Force regen included

Off-Car Deep Clean

From £299

We remove the DPF, clean it on our MET Clean S machine, then refit and reset the system — the gold standard for restoring filters to near-new condition. Final price depends on the vehicle and the labour time needed to access and remove the DPF.

  • Removal & refit included
  • MET Clean S process
  • Inspection & reset included

Prices are starting from. Off-car pricing can rise if the DPF is difficult to access or extra labour is needed for removal/refit. Final cost depends on vehicle, DPF condition and additional work required (sensors, gaskets, force regen). We'll quote before any work begins.

MET Clean S DPF cleaning machine at DRS in Derby
MET Clean S
Why DRS

The right machine. The right hands.

We didn't cut corners on the equipment. The MET Clean S system uses a proven high-pressure flushing process with controlled heating cycles that removes ash and soot deposits an on-car chemical flush alone can't reach — without damaging the substrate.

MET Clean S Machine

We've invested in the MET Clean S system — used by main dealers and specialists across Europe for proven, repeatable results.

EGR & Radiator Cleaning

The same MET Clean S equipment isn't limited to DPFs. We also use it to clean EGR valves and radiator cores, removing carbon and debris that reduce cooling efficiency.

12+ Years in Derby

Backed by the DRS Brand — a trusted name for performance, servicing and diagnostics in the Midlands since 2013.

Fast Turnaround

Most on-car cleans done same day. Trade DPFs cleaned and returned within 24–48 hours.

FAQ

Common questions about DPF cleaning.

Still unsure? Drop us your reg and the symptoms — we'll tell you straight whether a clean will sort it.

Will a chemical clean fix a fully blocked DPF?+

Often not. If the DPF is heavily ash-loaded or fully blocked, an on-car chemical clean is unlikely to recover it. The MET Clean S off-car process is the right call — it's the only way to physically flush ash from the filter substrate.

How do I know if my DPF needs cleaning?+

Common signs: DPF warning light, limp mode, frequent failed regens, poor MPG, smell of burning. We diagnose first — we won't sell you a clean you don't need.

Is this better than a replacement?+

A clean is typically a fraction of the cost of a new DPF and restores flow to near-OEM. We'll only recommend replacement if the substrate is physically damaged.

Do you guarantee the work?+

We guarantee the clean itself: if the DPF becomes blocked again within 6 months, we will carry out the cleaning process again free of charge. This does not cover the labour time for removing and refitting the DPF. If during initial diagnostics we identify faults in the engine or emissions systems that caused the DPF to block (for example injector, turbo, EGR, sensor, fuel-system or engine-related issues), these must be repaired by you. If they are not repaired and the DPF blocks again, the guarantee is null and void.

Where are you based and who do you cover?+

Our workshop is in Derby. We cover walk-in customers across the Midlands and offer trade collection within 10 miles of Derby, or a DHL postal service for trade DPFs sent from further afield.
