Middlewich is just over 19 miles east of Chester and sits at the intersection of several A roads: the A54 between Buxton and Tarvin; the A530, which travels south to Whitchurch; and the A533 between Road Heath and Widnes. The Middlewich Classic Car and Bike Show happens annually and is worth attending if you're in the area at the right time. Unfortunately, the town no longer has a railway station; getting the bus is best if you need public transport.

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.
