At the same time it gradually get clogged with the soot that it traps reducing vehicle performance and efficiency. If you’re shopping for a Mazda 3 or CX-30 and are considering this new engine, here’s what you need to know…After years of minimal incremental tweaks, Mitsubishi is about to update its range of SUVs. I’m talking 80km/h or above for a total of an hour or so, minimum, every fortnight.

This includes some of my recommended cars, and saying goodbye to a legend…Kia’s Sorento seven-seat SUV is finally about to land in showrooms, within a matter of weeks.

Because nobody wants that.In theory a DPF needs no maintenance - it’s just a steel chamber up near the engine full of Cordierite or silicon carbide designed to trap microscopic soot, and then periodically the computer turns the chamber into a furnace by injecting extra fuel, thus burning the particles into a less harmful state.To quote the marketing euphemistic bullshit, DPFs are maintenance free and designed to last the life of the vehicle.
