AT A GLANCE
Important information. Easy to understand.
Keep an eye on important information about your diesel vehicle. The available readings depend on your car.
Regeneration
See when your car cleans its particulate filter and what is known about the last cleaning.
AdBlue & emissions
Keep track of available information about AdBlue and your car’s emissions system.
HOW YOUR PARTICULATE FILTER WORKS
Collect. Burn off. Drive on.
The diesel particulate filter traps soot from the exhaust. Once it is well filled, the car cleans it itself: during a regeneration the soot is burned off at high temperature. Deep DPF Inspect shows you where your filter currently is in this cycle – where your vehicle provides the values.
- 01Soot builds up
In everyday driving the filter gradually fills up.
- 02Regeneration
At high exhaust temperature the soot is burned off – ideally during a longer, steady drive.
- 03Clear again
Only a little ash remains. The cycle starts again.

HOW IT WORKS
Three steps to your readings.
- 1
Plug in the adapter
Plug a compatible OBD adapter into your car’s diagnostic port and pair it with your phone.
- 2
Identify your car
The app identifies your car and tailors the display to it. With your approval, your vehicle identification number and relevant vehicle data are sent to our server for this.

CONTRIBUTE
Help out – and benefit yourself.
In the app settings you can switch on “Help improve the app”. The app then shares your vehicle’s readings with us. This lets us check that everything comes through correctly, fix errors faster and extend support – for your car, too.
- Off by default. Only if you switch it on yourself.
- No location or contacts. No location, contact or account data is shared.
- Switch off any time. Your shared data is then deleted.
- Limited retention. 12 months at most.
IMPORTANT
A diagnostic aid, not a workshop replacement.
Readings may be incomplete or incorrect. The app does not certify roadworthiness or emissions compliance. Consult qualified professionals when problems occur.
