{"id":"mech-dpf-egr-delete","category":"mechanic","name":"DPF and EGR delete","description":"Taking the diesel particulate filter and the EGR system out of use for good: the filter is emptied or cut out, the EGR is blanked off, and the engine computer is reprogrammed so it no longer looks for them. Shops offer it as a cure for a filter or valve that keeps clogging. A vehicle modified this way does not meet its type approval, so it fails the ITV emissions test and may not be driven on public roads; that choice rests with the owner. Repairing or cleaning the filter and valve so they keep working is listed separately.","aliases":["DPF delete","EGR delete","DPF off","anulación FAP","anulación EGR","eliminación DPF","удаление сажевого фильтра","заглушка ЕГР"],"vehicle":["auto","industrial"],"modes":["in-shop"],"typicalDurationMin":240,"status":"active","_meta":{"sourceHash":"sha256:e54c1c91ae4896ead3a9d6beeeb9e21f235efd48c79fa39e838029b600342455","locale":"en","fields":{"name":"human","description":"human","aliases":"human"}},"generatedAt":"2026-10-13T19:49:07.661Z"}
