  1. its available in the usa because the laws there are different from our laws and in the us its not road legal either but they run 6.4 litre dodges and f150s i understand what youre looking for but the fact is no one will touch it for various reasons 1 being its illegal and a garage with the equipment would be heavily fined if you were caught even without the dpf removed the soot will still be obvious as its not regenerating and creating enough heat to burn it off and in the us the delete kits are for huge diesel engines that only give around 20mpg. ive done some asking my mates working at a diesel shop up the road and they have stated no one will delete it for you and you wont find a kit for the focus they are all for f150s 6.5 litre engines etc not a little foci engine sadly as said you need to find a garage who will replace it cheaper than the dealers or get the dealer to do it theres no other method available. even if you somehow tricked it into thinking its regenerating the fact is its not the dpf removes between 85%/100% of the soot and toxins without it actually regenerating and working any mot station will simply put the foot on the throttle and youll get plumes of soot from the exhaust which is an immediate fail.

  2. i am trying to explain it to you the software is not available to get that done you will need to go to a diesel remapping place and they can remap it for you blanking out the dpf cost £485 quid its not available to you or me via anywhere only the pros have it try calling some diesel tuners to see if they will remap it for you some will some wont after asking you cannot fit a normal cat to the car dont understand fully why not but apparently doesnt work that way best option ive found is the diesel remap which considering the cost isnt much diofferent from an independant fitting a new dpf. many pages of pugeot owners asking the same questions as youreself and all are getting the same answers on the different forums including the vw forum and the mazda forum the choiice is remap or new dpf

  3. ive been reading similar things from mazda and volvo drivers as well as pugeot basically the advice is get rid of it as soon as iot needs it so anyopne looking at buying a second hand diesel shoukld keep 500 aside to have it done ive never been a fan of diesels even after having one to be honest no matyter how refined they still sound like a bag of nails when idling and those that dont have about 10 inches of soundproofing on them lol each to there own its just another way of manufacturers making cash we all know they have to do it somehow

  4. Totally agree with artscot79 about this. With all the goings on in a diesel and the many complexities that come with one i will consider my future purchase of car very carefully. The DPF is a nonsensical idea thought up by someone who believes the world is going to end with all these pollutants HA HA HA HA. Stick to your plain old petrol gussling petrol engine folks and enjoy the ride.
