Have just had my car returned from the main dealer because of sooted up DPF and engine management light,

Prior to my breakdown , Had done abt 120 motorway miles.

They changed the engine oil and filter after regening the DPF, apparently the oil was corrupted and had been running above the fill level.

They also tweeked the engine ECU with an update.

So I come to the crunchpoint: I am seriously consdering a DPF removal , I have been told by an expert that it is not part of the MOT, but smoke emisssion IS.

The company I spoke to ,have been in Engine tuning for quite a while, and after DPF removal they would remove all ECU programming relevant and after the procedure would run an Emission test.

Any thoughts most welcome, Bootsie
