Commercial Duty Cycle Matters on a Crafter

Crafters often work under high kilometres, payload, stop-start delivery and extended idle conditions. Those operating conditions can influence DPF loading and regeneration, but recurring warnings still need mechanical diagnosis.

Crafter DPF Problems We Investigate

DPF Loading

Assess measured/calculated restriction and fault history.

Failed Regeneration

Investigate why regeneration is not completing.

Reduced Power

Separate DPF restriction from other boost, EGR, fuelling or sensor faults.
