The main road through Peterlee is the A19, which travels north towards Newcastle and 17 miles south to Stockton-on-Tees. The nearest motorway is the A1(M), about thirty minutes away. The town has a couple of electric car charging stations, one on Easington Way and the other on Yoden Way (also the location of the bus station). Arriva and Go North East operate several bus routes in Peterlee, making it easy to travel while your car is out of action.
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.
Find out how to avoid DPF problems in this guide.
When do I need a professional DPF clean? This is a common question. When the filter gets clogged up with soot, a warning light will usually appear on your dashboard, indicating you need to arrange a DPF filter cleaning or replacement. Other signs include black soot coming from your exhaust and decreased fuel efficiency.
To solve this problem, you could look for a garage that will carry out a DPF clean near you or book a mobile DPF cleaning service. Find out how much it's likely to cost in this guide.
