Clean or replace: what customers were quoted
The usual reason people call us is a garage telling them the filter needs replacing. We don't set the price of other firms' work, so the table below uses what customers wrote in their own Google reviews. These are customer-reported figures, quoted word for word.
| Customer, Google review | What they wrote |
|---|---|
| Callum R., July 2025 | "I had been quoted over £4,000 to replace a DPF filter" |
| The S., August 2026 | "they said i’d need a new filter which could be £3500!" |
| Gordon T., September 2026 | "got a quote of about£1800.00which was a bit steep" |
| Kenneth M., January 2026 | "quoting £336 to clean out DPF" |
For comparison, our Premier DPF clean starts at £280 + VAT, which is £336 including VAT. The clean versus replacement guide explains when each makes sense.
When a clean will not work
Cleaning isn't always the right answer. A filter with a cracked or melted core can't be restored. A filter soaked in oil, usually because an engine fault is feeding oil into the exhaust, will block again unless that fault is dealt with first. The same goes for a leaking pipe or a failing sensor that keeps triggering the warning.
This is why the diagnostic scan and live data come first. In the reviews above, two customers had the real fault found during the visit: a small crack in a pipe in one case, and a fault the original dealership couldn't find in another. We tell you what we see, then you decide.

Questions about Kirkcaldy
Is it cheaper to clean or replace a DPF?
Where the filter is blocked but undamaged, a clean costs far less than a new filter. Our Premier DPF clean is from £280 + VAT. Replacement prices vary by vehicle and garage, and customers quote very different figures in their reviews. A scan tells us whether yours can be cleaned, so get that before you commit to a replacement.
When will a clean not work?
It won't work on a filter with a cracked or melted core, or one soaked in oil from an engine fault. It also won't last if another problem, such as a leak or a failing sensor, keeps overloading the filter. We check this on the scan and tell you before you pay for the clean.
Do you cover Glenrothes and Leven?
Yes. Glenrothes (KY6, KY7), Leven, Methil, Burntisland and Kinghorn are in the central Fife area we serve alongside Kirkcaldy. Ring with your postcode and registration and we'll give you a time, often the same day, and the fixed price.
