Why not remove the DPF and drive without one?

Driving your car without a DPF may seem like a cheap and easy way to avoid large maintenance costs. An onlne search shows there are many companies offering the removal of your DPF filter and remapping the ECU as a total solution to the problem. Historically this may have been an acceptable option; however the law now takes a different view. As of February 2014 diesel particulate filter checks form part of the MOT and any vehicle missing a DPF will fail the test.

Department for Transport documents clearly state the following:

24th September 2013: Diesel Particulate Filters - Guidance notes. "It is an offence under the Road vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations (Regulation 61a(3))1 to use a vehicle which has been modified in such a way that it no longer complies with the air pollutant emissions standards it was designed to meet. Removal of a DPF will almost invariably contravene these requirements, making the vehicle illegal for road use."

4th December 2013: Diesel Particulate Filters - Guidance notes. "This change to the MOT tests makes it clear – if you have this filter (DPF) removed from your car it will fail the test."

You can clearly see from the above articles, if your vehicle was fitted with a DPF filter as standard and it is no longer on the vehicle when presented for an annual MOT Inspection it will fail the test.
