Worries particulate filters are quite common. When the problem arises, we can have signs relatively different, like a loss of power. It is rather exceptional that this problem of the smart smart comes from the FAP as such, but the latter can be impacted. We will thus try to understand the principle of a filter, then to understand the cause of this problem.problem-fap-smart-smart

What is the FAP of your smart smart for?

The role of the fap is to protect you. As you can imagine, the latter has the role of filtering molecules toxiques for the environment. Initially, FAP was found particularly in diesel systems, but they are now common in petrol systems. The molecules we are talking about emitted by the smart smart are so tiny that they can quickly seep into the lungs. Doctors have shown that the latter can cause health problems. In this sense, this FAP has an indispensable role. If a problem does arise, it is therefore crucial to pay attention to it. Your catalyst will lower the emitted molecules, then the FAP will collect these remaining molecules.

FAP of your clogged smart smart: causes and solutions

Let's get into the thick of it. You will be able to discern this problem and know how to fix it.

Particulate Filter: The problem comes from poor combustion.

As we have already studied, it is rare that the FAP has a problem. When it gets blocked, it means that the problem probably originated elsewhere. Partial combustion of the fuel will sometimes cause a lot of residue. It remains in fact imaginable that the problem comes from another component of the engine of the smart smart. Indeed, it is common for the problem to come from injectors.

A sensor problem

If an erroneous signal is ever sent elsewhere within the engine block, this could cause mechanical problems in your engine block. At the end of the chain, it is this FAP that will be impacted. The engine block elements of the smart smart may be running smoothly, but there may be a problem with the settings. Difficult to understand where the problem came from without having a check carried out by a professional.

You don't ride enough

You should know that a fap cleans itself. Indeed, it is thanks to the heat generated by the engine block that this one will thus make disappear the soot . If you drive mainly in the city, the FAP of the smart smart will clog faster. We advise you to drive for around 15 minutes at 3000 rpm to unclog it.

Conclusion

The smart smart's Particle Filter is one of the last links in the mechanical . If he himself has a problem, you will most likely have the source of the problem before. It is important to note that permanently erasing your FAP is clearly illegal, for a smart smart or for any vehicle. If it has a problem, you will have to repair it or have it replaced.
