At JVS Engineer, we continue to invest in the latest diagnostic equipment. Our dealership-level software means that we are able to diagnose faults in up to 90% of makes including VW, Audi, Vauxhall, Hyundai, Skoda and Volvo. What's more, even if your car is under a three-year manufacturer's warranty, you don't have to go back to the dealership to have it serviced, come to JVS instead, saving you a potentially long round trip.

New for 2020 - JVS Cool
We are now able to offer our clients mobile services at their choice of location from the latest addition to the JVS Engineering fleet of vehicles. Our new service includes:
- mobile air-con
- diesel/petrol and carbon cleaning
- DPF cleaning.
What is DPF cleaning?
Diesel cars produce high levels of soot or "particulate matter" that can cause respiratory problems leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
However, since 2009, it is mandatory for a diesel car to be fitted with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) in its exhaust to prevent some 80% of this soot being ejected into the air around us.
A DPF needs to be emptied regularly and, under normal conditions, this should happen when the car exhaust temperature is high enough, ie., when it's being driven at higher speeds on motorways or A-roads. The soot itself will be burnt off and only a small amount of ash residue will be left behind.
Unfortunately, it's not possible to remove this ash, unless the DPF itself is removed for specialist cleaning. But the good news is that your diesel car's DPF should last for at least 100,000 miles.
And if you drive your diesel car mainly in stop-start, low-speed urban conditions, the soot build-up will occur much more quickly. Not having your DPF cleaned regularly or ignoring warning lights could be costly: replacing a filter could cost at least £1,000 plus labour.
Drivers of diesel vehicles need to be aware of the following:
- You need to use the right type of oil as certain oils contain additives that can block filters.
- It is illegal to remove a DPF and the fines for doing so are hefty (up to £1,000 for cars and £2,500 for vans).
- Removing a DPF can invalidate your vehicle insurance policy.
- A DPF check is part of the MOT test and you vehicle will fail is the DPF has been removed.
- Even a warning light on the dashboard will leave to an MOT fail.
