DPF Cleaning South East Melbourne

At DeutschTek Automotive, we provide a professional DPF cleaning service in Melbourne designed specifically for modern European diesel vehicles. Our technicians use advanced diagnostic tools and industry-approved cleaning methods to restore your Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) to optimal condition. Whether you’re dealing with warning lights, reduced power, poor fuel economy, or limp-mode issues, our DPF cleaning service delivers reliable, long-lasting results.

Our comprehensive services, are more thorough than regular oil changes, and we interrogate you’re Diesel engine control module and injection control module to determine the state of you’re DPF, Turbo, Timing chain or timing belt, etc in every service, saving the customer money in the long run. We understand that YOU’RE time is money too, and we want to ensure you don’t have any issues between now and next service. We strongly suggest, and try to steer you away from the manufacturers’ recommendation of 12 months and 15,000km (some are more) between services.

While this is ok for a relatively new vehicle, as the engine ages we see significant savings for the customer and longer life of vehicles that are serviced every 6 months or no greater than 10,000km.

If you would like to speak to us, or have any questions about Diesels, about shorter service intervals, or for any other advice or bookings call and speak to us on 03 9969 8800.

Rod provides an excellent customer service. He was very helpful even during the process of me buying the car, Rod is very knowledgeable and knew everything about my Porsche Cayenne. Service and repair prices are fair, and the work was completed to a very high standard. I was constantly updated, also would always check in before any additional repairs were made. I would highly recommend this business.

Thanks Rod and his team for fixing the oil leak for the old girl E38 740il, she runs beautifully and sounds like what a naturally aspirated V8 should be. Despite some minor hiccup, Rod shows persistent to fix the issue, very transparent, professional and explained everything in detail. 5 stars from me!

Rod and his team are very professional in both the technical aspect of their job as well as customer service and customer relations.

I was introduced to his business via suggestions on my social media post.

Rod was welcoming, open to questions and provided clear information on what was needed, what was going to get worth if left unattended and advised what products he was going to use that matched his standards of quality and performance.

I did a general service and he checked pretty much everything, better than Mercedes service centre, communicated everything via phone call, he then sent me the videos on WhatsApp while I went for lunch around the corner.
I had just changed the brakes for the rear wheels and had a noise on the front wheel that apparently was not checked by the previous mechanic and guess what, he found a stone stuck in the brake system that he pulled out.
He advised what oil he put in and then wrote everything he did, the parts he used in the invoice while his team gave the car a quick wash which is always a bonus.

Great work! Great team!
Well done! And I will be back for the transmission service and for future work. You know that you are safe hands both technical wise and price wise!

I've taken my 2015 VW Amarok to Rod on a few occasions now and have been very happy with the experience. With 250k km, the car had developed many oil leaks including a rear main. Rod quoted a fair and reasonable amount to complete the works and completed in the said timeframe. Rod kept me informed along the way and gave me economical options when other non related items were discovered along the way. He knows his Amaroks. I felt well looked after and have no hesitation recommending him to others.

Rod has been very helpful in a time of urgent need. He went above and beyond to ensure that my car became compliant at very short notice and provided with a spare car so I could go about with my business. Rod is reliable, trustworthy, helpful and an all round nice mechanic.

Rod is an absolute pleasure to deal with, honest from the start and you get the sense your car is in good hands. I recently purchased a 2018 Passat R Line, unfortunately the dealers wanted to charge exorbitant dollars for a service that was 35% cheaper while using higher grade oils. If you need your German car (or other euro) don’t hesitate to contact Rod!

Rod is a very genuine guy, and I felt I could trust him straight away. His knowledge and experience enabled him to figure out a problem I have had with my Ford Territory for a few years, that no other mechanic has been able to diagnose. My whole family are now going to Deutschtek Automotive for all their car servicing needs. Being able to find an honest, trustworthy mechanic has been a great experience.

Rod is a master!
He has looked after our European cars for many years. Rod keeps you up to date and informed about what is required with any service item, and with all aspects of the vehicle. I highly recommend Rod to all of my friends - and they are equally happy with his service and professionalism. 5 stars from me!
