 Hey Guys,

I've run my car about once a month at idle for about 10 minutes for the last three years to keep everything working while sorned... But it seems that the particulate filter is now completely blocked so I'm going to buy a new filter rather than try to run a regeneration cycle on my drive which I expect would result in lots of smoke and noise..

Can anyone recommend a vendor..the prices seem to be all over the place from around £120 to £300 for a new item. Or suggest a better way forward...

Thanks in advance,

Frank

 A few options....
1, take it off and (back) pressure wash it out and then let it regenerate in use
2, Send it to be cleaned by an "expert"
3, I sell you a used one that isn't blocked (and as I'm in East Calder you can collect for free or I'll drop it around for beer tokens )

 Hi Mike,

Option 3 seems like a no-brainer, I'll pm you to sort out details

Many thanks,

Frank
