Can premium fuel prevent a DPF from clogging up?
I have read that buying premium diesel will help prevent the DPF from blocking up as it has additives in it. Is this true or am I wasting my money?

I've not seen any evidence that suggests premium fuel will prolong the life of a DPF or prevent it from clogging up if used mostly for short trips.
