Will the Audi A4L particulate filter get clogged?
1 Answers
Audi A4L particulate filters can get clogged. When the accumulated particulates reach a certain level, the particulate filter will automatically ignite to burn and expel them, which is known as the 'regeneration' process of the particulate filter. The general procedure for cleaning the particulate filter using cleaning equipment is as follows: First, remove the particulate filter and place it on the testing equipment. Then, use the probe on the equipment to check the clogging condition of the particulate filter. Next, preheat the cleaning equipment to 300°C, place the particulate filter inside, and adjust the temperature to 600°C for oxidation treatment of the carbon deposits. After the treatment is completed, cool the particulate filter and then use a high-pressure blowing tool for cleaning. Once the cleaning is done, use professional measuring equipment to record the data of the particulate filter. After completing the above steps, reassemble the particulate filter and install it back into the vehicle.
