That said, it was in last week for a new rear reflector and service guy said it could do with a re-gen, I said go on then, and 30 mins later i'm off again. It's rarely driven in anger, just tends to trundle around.
I wonder how he knew that?

Had my first DPF warning last week and because I've driven 29,000km without a warning I had to wait til I got home to read what it meant. I was not worried because we had spent the morning driving up the side of a mountain range and so of course the afternoon was spent mainly braking on the way down. I assume the filter got bunged up during the drive down. After driving home later on normal roads the fault light cleared.

Not bad after 29,000km. Good that it cleared easily 👍

Fingers crossed for you, I had done 15,000 miles 12 months ownership, no problems,got the dreaded sign twice last week, thought I had cleared it but now got the Engine Control Fault (Yellow) up, tried running for longer period at 2,000 rpm but sign wont go away, booked in to OPC now to check

I hope I get much more than that before I got a warning my euro 5 BMW E60 got to over 140K before I got my first warning which was cured by a spirited drive, 30K miles later i sold it to get my 911 without a further warning of the DPF
