How much to replace a DPF in Australia.
The exact cost of replacing a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) on a car, bus, or truck in Australia can vary significantly based on several factors. These factors include the make and model of the vehicle, the type of DPF system it has, the brand of the DPF, the labour rates of the mechanic, and any additional parts or services required during the replacement process. The cost you might encounter, can change over time and can vary widely based on the location and mechanic.
For passenger cars, the cost of replacing a DPF can range from AUD 1,500 to AUD 3,000 or more. Larger vehicles like buses and trucks could have significantly higher costs due to the larger size and more complex systems. For buses and trucks, the cost could range from AUD 3,000 to AUD 10,000 or more.
It's important to note that these costs do not only include the price of the DPF itself but also the labour charges for installation, any additional parts or components needed, and potentially diagnostics and programming to ensure proper functioning of the new DPF.
To get an accurate estimate of the cost for your specific vehicle, it's recommended to contact local mechanics or service centres in Australia. They can provide you with a more precise quote based on your vehicle's details and the current market prices for DPFs and labour.
Furthermore, consider that there is alternative options, such as DPF cleaning services, which could be more cost-effective compared to full replacement.
