1 Answers
GPF in a car refers to the Gasoline Particulate Filter, which is a ceramic filter installed in the emission system of a gasoline engine. Its main function is to capture particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere, thereby reducing particles. Below is relevant information: 1. Car GPF indicator light: When the GPF indicator light in the car is on, it means that the particulate matter accumulated in the GPF needs to be cleaned. 2. Arrangement forms: Integrated with TWC for installation, located close to the exhaust manifold, known as close-coupled arrangement; installed directly downstream of the TWC, known as rear-mounted arrangement; applying a three-way catalyst coating on the GPF substrate to form a four-way catalyst.
