What is a Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF)?
Gasoline particulate filters (GPF) are based on diesel particulate filter (DPF) technology and were developed to control particulate emissions from gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines.
Gasoline Particulate Filter Regeneration
Particles in the exhaust gas collect in the gasoline particulate filter causing a gradual restriction over time. This restriction is removed through a regeneration process controlled by the engine control system. The regeneration process converts the particles in the exhaust gas into harmless gases.
