DPF Claim | Check If You’re Owed Compensation for Diesel Emissions in the UK
Thousands of UK diesel drivers are now joining legal claims—and you could too.
If you leased, financed, or purchased a diesel vehicle between 2017 and 2022, you may have been misled about its emissions output. Manufacturers like Land Rover, BMW, Mercedes, and Vauxhall face legal action for fitting their vehicles with defective or manipulated Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFS).
If your car didn’t meet promised environmental standards, you could claim £1,000s in compensation.

What Is a DPF Claim?
A DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) claim is a legal action taken against car manufacturers who allegedly misled customers by installing faulty DPF systems or using software to cheat emissions tests (known as defeat devices).
These practices led drivers to believe their vehicles were more environmentally friendly than they were, causing excess emissions, poor fuel economy, and costly repairs.
Which Brands Are Involved in DPF Claims?
At present, Jaguar and Land Rover are the only manufacturers facing active legal claims in the UK specifically related to defective Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFS).

Note: This isn’t an exhaustive list. Other manufacturers may be included as investigations develop.
Who Can Make a DPF Claim?
You might be eligible for a DPF claim if:
-
You bought, financed, or leased a diesel vehicle between 2009 and 2020
-
Your vehicle was manufactured by a brand involved in diesel emissions claims.
-
You had no idea your car was fitted with technology that masked its real emissions.
-
This claim is open exclusively to those living in England and Wales.
Why Diesel Drivers Are Filing Claims
DPF claims are about more than just money—they’re about fairness. Many UK drivers feel misled by manufacturers who sold diesel vehicles, promising clean emissions. Instead, drivers have faced:
-
Frequent DPF blockages
-
Expensive repair bills
-
MOT failures
-
Higher emissions than legally allowed
It’s time to hold manufacturers accountable.
How Much Could You Claim?
Compensation amounts can vary based on the vehicle, ownership type, and severity of the misrepresentation. On average, UK drivers may be entitled to:
-
Receive compensation of up to £10,000.
-
Claims are usually risk-free—you don’t pay unless your claim is successful.
Is There a Deadline?
Yes, there may be time limits based on when you purchased your vehicle or when the emissions issue came to light.
That’s why it’s important to check your eligibility now, before the window closes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a DPF claim?
A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) traps harmful soot particles from your exhaust. It’s designed to reduce pollution, but when it fails or is manipulated, it can release illegal levels of emissions.
Is this the same as Dieselgate?
Yes, DPF claims are part of the wider Dieselgate scandal, where manufacturers were caught fitting cars with software to cheat emissions tests.
Do I need to go to court?
In most cases, no. Your claim will be handled by legal experts and settled outside court if possible.
How do I claim on my Land Rover?
Simply enter your registration number into our free online checker to see if you’re eligible. If your Land Rover was affected by faulty or misleading DPF technology, you could claim £1,000s in compensation. It’s quick, easy, and handled on a no-win, no-fee basis.
What if I no longer own the vehicle?
You can still claim if you previously owned or leased the vehicle—ownership at the time of sale or use is what matters.
