I had endless DPF problems with my Porsche Macan 3 litre diesel, often went into limp home mode, many visits to the dealer to clear it. Finally I started to use only premium diesel (mainly Esso) and the problems went away. I have now done 103,000 miles, the last 50,000 without problem since changing to expensive diesel.
@yodab.at17469 ай бұрын
The higher grade fuel gets better mpg partly due to higher combustion temperatures, so the dpf is going to be fed slightly higher temp gases which probably just pushes it over the threshold of being able to regenerate effectively. Driving style will also be a factor.

That pig needs a good 4hr hard motorway run every so often to keep the dpf clean......keep her lit!!

There should be legislation to make it illegal to lock diagnostic functions. For 2 reasons one, it's unfair businesses practise, and second it fights against vehicles running ccorrectly and cleanly

Jimmy you need to get yourself an OSCA tool. They dial in remotely and have access to all main dealer (and then some) softwares. They can do resets and even regens remotely. Its my last option, but if the customer wants it done then another £80 or so won't matter to them.

Are you still diluting the cleaning fluid with water? Also, have you tried the Liqui Moly 20112 DPF Filter purge and if so is it comparable to the Laucnch UK cleaning fluid? Both are applied with the gun. Here in Aus, it is hard to get either product.
