[QUOTE="ricky_rascal, post: 7630831, member: 29432"] On my second 2.5 d max and both have been fine apart from DPF problems at 30,000 miles with first. They fitted new injectors but swapped it for current one so no idea if it sorted it. I do too many short trips I’m led to believe and hence current one started regenerating the DPF every 20 or so. Fella on Facebook (I’m so going to regret taking any notice) said fit an ‘EGR delete cable’. This is a short cable for twenty odd quid (probably cost two and six shillings to make) which you plug in and egr no longer opens. I read a bit of the hows and where’s and the what’s to do about these egr things and they are plainly the work of the devil! So with what you would call light work with no towing or motorway work it‘s back over 100 miles between regens. I do think [USER=643]@Dave W[/USER] is correct in that the high milers running up and down motorways or generally working hard trailering don’t have any issues at all. Pillocks like mine that run around rural roads don’t seem to like it or at least the DPF don’t. I don’t spare the horses but in honesty half the time I’m following some retired local going to the library. [/QUOTE]
