Burnley is served by the M65 motorway, which passes through the town, and the A56 dual carriageway to the west. The town is 80% rural, so you're more likely to encounter uneven road surfaces and potholes when driving. If you need public transport while your car is being repaired, there are four railway stations - Manchester Road, Central, Barracks and Rose Grove - operated by Northern. The bus station is on Croft Street, and Burnley Bus Company operates most services.

Diesel particulate filters are crucial because they capture and store exhaust soot to help reduce your car's emissions. Since 2009, all diesel cars have been required to have a DPF.

Passive regeneration is the primary way of keeping a DPF filter clean. It happens when the exhaust reaches a high temperature, typically while on a motorway. However, many cars don't reach this stage often enough, making the DPF clogged.
