Carbon cleaning and emissions With greater emphasis being put on environmental policies and needs, vehicle emissions play a large part in the green agenda. Tighter regulations on emissions means that it features in the list of NCT fails. Changing filters, oil and spark plugs is one part of getting a car through its emission test, but have you thought about adding carbon cleaning as well. Carbon cleaning can help to improve a vehicles performance whilst lowering a customer’s carbon footprint. In the current economic climate, customers are holding onto vehicles longer, meaning that they are aging. By being able to offer carbon cleaning/DPF cleaning, means that they will ultimately perform better and last longer.

Why? Removing carbon deposit build up will help prevent costly engine repairs as well as expensive emission control system replacements. There are millions of vehicles on the road with DPF’s and up to 70% of clogged DPFs are unnecessarily scrapped which means large numbers of vehicle owners are paying more money for replacements when cleaning will restore the part to perfect working condition.
