Toyota Hilux DPF problems and cleaning

We clean Hilux DPFs at the yard, on the farm or at home, so the pickup keeps working. Most cleans are done in 60 to 90 minutes, and a flashing DPF light can often be seen the same day.

How a visit for your Hilux works

Send the registration

Tell us if the DPF light is steady or flashing. The clean is £275 + VAT.

Agree a time

Early, late or between jobs.

Readings, then the clean

Once the soot reading confirms a clean will work, the solution goes in and the regeneration is run.

Back to work

Codes cleared and readings checked again before we leave.

About the Hilux DPF clean

Pickups that idle on site and move short distances all day are tough on a DPF, as regenerations rarely finish. If the light is flashing, the filter is likely well loaded, so it's worth booking soon.

The clean clears soot with the filter fitted, though it can't fix ash or cracks. Where it can't be saved, the DPF delete is £220 + VAT.

Hilux vans and fleets

If you run several pickups or vans, we can visit the yard and work through more than one on a single trip where time allows. A trade account suits businesses with regular work.

Why book SGR

Most visits take 60 to 90 minutes, same-day help is often available for a warning light, and we're insured to £2 million.

Frequently asked questions

Can you clean my Hilux's DPF at our yard?

Yes. Park it where the engine can run safely and the exhaust can vent outside.

Can you check what blocked the Hilux filter?

The readings often show the cause, and full diagnostics cost £100 + VAT.

How do I stop the Hilux's DPF blocking again?

Fit in a longer, steady run when you can and let regenerations finish rather than switching off.

Can a Hilux with the DPF deleted still be used on public roads?

No. We only delete the DPF on pickups used off-road or going for export, as our DPF removal guide explains.

Book a visit for your Hilux

Give us the Hilux registration and the yard or home address, and we'll arrange a slot. Other models are on our Toyota DPF page, and Hilux remapping can be booked too.
