Anyone had the same? Dpf clogging up partly due to not enough long journeys? Seems to be more than just ours struggling has anyone had similar and how did you solve it? Thanks
I don't own anything new enough to have dpf but there's loads of additives for sale to Chuck in the tank to help prevent it happening.
Remove and re-map is the long term solution .Drive 100 miles on a motorway in a gear to obtain a constant 3000 rpm. Might save you a few hundred or more quid???

No there isn’t. Which one do you suggest?I don't own anything new enough to have dpf but there's loads of additives for sale to Chuck in the tank to help prevent it happening.
Wynn's,stp,redex etc all do dpf cleaner,but like I said,I don't have the problem. Google " dpf cleaner"No there isn’t. Which one do you suggest?
Best thing for dpf is a bit of right foot. Basically buying a diesel engine pushing out towards 200hp and then fannying about trying to get small hatchback mpg out of them is just choking them on their own soot. Spend a bit more on fuel and less on repair bills long term is ur best option.Wynn's,stp,redex etc all do dpf cleaner,but like I said,I don't have the problem. Google " dpf cleaner"
No doubt. The ops case sounds like short trips are the problemBest thing for dpf is a bit of right foot.

Whereas I have a 21 plate and has only ever been in for service….Mate has a 21 plate one. It’s now been back to dealer 17 times…. Yes 17……
Said mate only does about 10 miles a day, I think that’s his problemWhereas I have a 21 plate and has only ever been in for service….
I’ll swap him. Mines done nearly 50kSaid mate only does about 10 miles a day, I think that’s his problem
