Malfunctions of particulate filters are rather regular. When the malfunction comes, we can detect symptoms relatively diverse, such as a loss of power. It is rare that this malfunction of this Kia Pop comes from the filter in particular, but the latter may be impacted. We will therefore try to understand the principle of fap, and then find the cause of this dysfunction.
What is a FAP on a Kia Pop for?
The role of the particle filter is to protect you. As you can imagine, it is used to filter particles harmful for the man. Basically, there was a particle filter especially in diesel mechanics, but they will be all the more common in petrol mechanics. These particles we are talking about emitted by this Kia Pop are so fine that they can simply enter the lungs. Many doctors have attested that these particles can cause health problems. In this case, the FAP is extremely useful. If ever a malfunction comes, it is therefore capital to remedy it. The catalyst will remove the emitted particles, and then your particle filter will pick up those particles that have successfully passed.
FAP of your clogged Kia Pop: causes and methods
Let's get into the thick of it. So you can spot the malfunction and figure out how to fix it.
Particulate Filter: The problem comes from poor combustion.
As we have already studied, it is rare for the particle filter to contain a malfunction. If it becomes clogged, it means that the malfunction probably originated on the other hand. Poor fuel combustion can generate excess soot. It remains in fact admissible that your dysfunction comes from another constituent of the engine of this Kia Pop. Indeed, it is frequent that it comes from the injectors.
A sensor problem
If ever a bad signal is sent to a place in the engine block, this can cause mechanical malfunctions in your engine block. At the end of the chain, this filter is impacted. The engine block components of this Kia Pop are probably working perfectly, but there is an adjustment malfunction. Difficult to guess where the dysfunction came from without having an audit carried out by a professional.
You don't ride enough
You should know that a particulate filter cleans itself. Indeed, it is thanks to the temperature emitted by the engine block that this one will thus make disappear the soot . If you ride mostly in urban areas, the particle filter of this Kia Pop can be clogged much more easily. We advise you to drive for about fifteen minutes at 3000 rpm to clean it.
Conclusion
The Fap of this Kia Pop is going to be one of the last links of the mechanical . By the time he himself has a malfunction, you will most likely have the source of the malfunction upstream. Remember that removing a FAP is formally illegal, on a Kia Pop like on any other vehicle. If the latter has a malfunction, it will therefore have to be repaired or replaced.
