Hi Paul, Learning to interpret the IIDTool data will take a while. Hang in there, the mist will clear. You need the IIDTool up with live values so you can see it regenning while driving. In order to avoid knackering the pins in the OBD port one of these is a good idea: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B073Y2...&psc=1 I will take pic of how I set mine up but it makes life a lot easier. Always switch it off - the IIDTool drains the battery if left plugged in overnight. If you use live values you can see your soot buildup live and get a handle on how many miles per gram of soot you get. If memory serves me correctly "Partial Regens" does not populate, but "Demanded Regens" should. Bank 1 Sensor 2 is the best indicator and most important heat sensor - it will go up to approx 640ºC when you are on an Active Regen. Regens (often referred to as "Burns") work best at 50-60mph steady driving. If you start accelerating hard it will interrupt and often halt the burn. DPF Pressure Sensor Voltage is not something I have used and I don't think will give any tangible or useable data. The amount of soot is an inferred calculation using differential in pressure. It is very accurate - diesel soot has a specific density. Think of it like a hosepipe. If the hosepipe has half the usual available diameter / bore available because it is partially blocked with 1mm ballbearings you can easily work out how many ballbearings are in there as it is a constant straight line graph. 0% blocked = 0 ballbearings. 100% blocked = 100% full of ballbearings. As you have reset the system as if you have a new DPF the car may take a while to sort itself out. When I was at this stage I used to drive very long distance to find trends and get the car settled. It sounds odd but the FFRR is a bit like owning a great big orange dog. Everyone loves a great big orange dog! But if you're gonna keep it it needs some training and routine until it's behaving. The FFRR loves long drives and hates the city... Hope this helps. You mentioned you are an engineer, which is useful. If you'd like to chat - PM me. Cheers. .

Hey Paul, you said you pulled in for PETROL. That's where you problem lies. LOL. |

Hi Range Rover L322 - thanks for the link and further advice, I like the big orange dog anology (it does feel accurate!).

And this experience today from Ian1275 confirms my suspicion that garages simply reset the DPF to clear the red:
