Diesel Exhaust Fluid Filter Maintenance in Des Moines, Iowa
Modern diesel trucks rely on aftertreatment systems to stay compliant—and your Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) filter is a critical part of that. At Housby Truck Lube, we provide DEF filter inspections, maintenance guidance, and fluid service as part of our preventive maintenance program. A clogged or overdue DEF filter can cause DTCs (diagnostic trouble codes), limit engine performance, and force a derate. Our team helps you avoid that with fast service and straightforward recommendations based on your OEM interval and filter condition.
What’s Included in Our DEF Filter Services:
- Inspection of DEF filter housing and inlet/outlet ports
- Review of onboard diagnostics and fluid condition
- Maintenance interval tracking and service reminders
- Visual inspection for crystallization or contamination
- Referral for filter replacement if outside shop capabilities

Guys did a great job! If they find problems they will advise you on it...leaks etc. Had my truck and trailer greased and oil and filters changed. Once they was done another tech double checked the work to ensure all was done properly and nothing was forgotten.
Thanks guys!
