| Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 32 mbar | 3 mbar | 90.6% ↓ |
Comparable dry workshop test conditions. Off-car results are not in-vehicle operating values.
INSPECTION & CLEANING
Camera: no obvious damage in visible areas.
Pipes / ports: checked — clear.
Discharge: heavy soot; moderate ash-like material; no oily deposits observed.
RECOMMENDED WORKSHOP CHECKS
Review regeneration history and fault codes. Check pressure-sensor hoses, temperature-sensor plausibility and operating temperature if loading recurs.
AFTER REFITTING
Check installation and exhaust joints. Follow the manufacturer’s warm-up procedure and verify fully warm differential pressure.
FINAL STATUS · CLEANING COMPLETED
Suggested checks are not a fault diagnosis or certification of filtration efficiency.

What your DPF cleaning report includes
Clear findings, practical handover
Bring together vehicle and filter details, recorded workshop pressure readings in mbar, camera findings, pipes and ports, cleaning observations and final status. Add your workshop branding and suggested checks for the receiving workshop.
Pressure changes are presented honestly: 11 → 22 mbar is a 100% increase in restriction, not an improvement. Comparable test conditions remain essential.

Important: Suggested workshop checks are guidance based on recorded observations. They are not a diagnosis or certification of filtration efficiency, emissions compliance or roadworthiness.
Report or Full Report?
Report
Use the standard report when you record only the pressure before cleaning. It documents the initial reading, inspection findings and work carried out. This is the right option if you have no comparable dry reading after cleaning.
After refitting: Once the filter is dry and the vehicle is fully warm, use a diagnostic tool to read DPF differential pressure from the ECU under the manufacturer’s specified conditions. Record this separately as an on-vehicle check.
OPTIONAL PRESSURE COMPARISON
Full Report
Enable Full Report to record pressure before and after cleaning and calculate the percentage change. For a meaningful comparison, test the same filter dry on both occasions, using the same bench setup, airflow and sealed connections.
Use a suitable drying oven or a machine with hot-air drying where the equipment and filter instructions permit. Verify that the filter is dry before taking the final reading. Retained moisture can raise the reading. Keep ECU readings separate from bench readings when calculating the percentage change.
