[QUOTE="NigelDenham, post: 645537, member: 32435"] I’m just having dpf issues this week on my transit custom. Nightmare… Most people don’t even realise it’s there, but if you have problems they can be huge, e.g. Ford dealers have hinted the bill could be pushing 3 grand to replace that and the exhaust gas recirculation valve if I put it in there. Garage up the road won’t touch them, as they’ve been bitten before with thinking they’ve fixed it then customers coming back in with the same problem. However, I was told that it’s definitely an mot fail if it’s not working, and as you say, a very hefty fine if it’s discovered it’s actually been removed, so I can only guess that as all diesels have had to have them since 2015 maybe something older can get away with it?
