Calling all diesel owners whose cars have a Diesel Particulate Filter!
It looks like it may be some while before I can get rid of my DPF and, in fact, I am starting to wonder whether it is worth bothering anyway.
I would like to hear your personal experiences... good and bad.
Also if anyone can give me some idea of whether my DPF is likely to work as it should (regeneration etc) that would be very much appreciated.
Just to give you an idea of my pattern of driving: every week I do maybe four or five trips of 2-4 miles from start to stop engine; I also do about four motorway trips of 7-8 miles each incorporated in a total journey of approx 16 miles. Occasional longer trips. My annual mileage is about 8000.
