Truck EGR & DPF Services in Rochester, NY

In heavy-duty diesel trucks, the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) and DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) mechanisms work together to lower the output of harmful exhaust gases. Maintaining your truck's EGR and DPF systems not only controls engine emissions but also ensures that your vehicle or fleet remains in compliance with emission regulations. If not cleaned and functioning properly, these systems can put a significant strain on your diesel engine performance, and lead to a host of issues. At PNS Truck Repair, we have the experience and expertise to diagnose and repair any issues with your fleet’s EGR and DPF systems.

About Our EGR & DPF Repairs & Services for Trucks & Fleets

Your EGR System

The EGR system helps decrease NOx emissions in a heavy-duty engine by lowering the combustion temperature. Here’s how it works. The higher the temperature, the more NOx is generated. The EGR system takes some of the exhaust gases and recirculates them back into the engine instead of letting them out through the exhaust pipe. Next, an EGR cooler cools the exhaust gases before reintroducing them into the engine. From here, a valve regulates the amount that is recirculated, making your truck’s engine more environmentally friendly.

Your DPF System

When you see a modern heavy-duty truck, chances are that it integrates a DPF component. It is designed to accumulate soot and other debris before it exits the exhaust system. As the DPF has a limited storage capacity, it may enter Automatic Regeneration mode periodically to burn off stored material and make space for more. However, the DPF may become clogged sometimes before it reaches full capacity. In such cases, our technicians at PNS Truck Repair can manually activate the DPF's regeneration mode to clear out any debris.

Signs of EGR Complications

EGR systems in today’s trucks are susceptible to two mechanical troubles.

Malfunctioning EGR valves: Carbon buildup caused by exposure to unfiltered emissions can cause the EGR valves to seize up, resulting in an uncontrolled exhaust recirculation system and potentially severe engine damage.
Leaks in the EGR coolers: Leaks can cause coolant to mix with the exhaust gases and be sent back into the engine. This not only damages your engine but also affects your truck’s overall performance.
