I have been asked for more details as to the procedure of performing a forced DPF Regeneration using the Gap iid tool.
Then..
The process displays as follows, once the car is up to temperature and speed exceeds 40mph. The display changes from Red to Green as the process proceeds.
The speed on these screen grabs is showing Zero because I had to pull into convenient lay-bys to take the pictures. The regen halts, but restarts automatically once the speed exceeds 40mph again.
Once the soot level falls (in my case down to 0.6g ) stop the engine and press the Quit word at the bottom of the screen. The whole process took approximately 12 miles, travelling 50 / 55 mph. I then rechecked using Live values as normal.

Yes the live values are available in older software versions.
Select Live values….then Engine Mike. G reg 2.5VM Vogue Portofino red 1991- 1999 V reg 2.5td P38 Rioja red 1999- 2006 53 reg td6 Vogue Oslo blue 2006- 2015 11 reg 4.4 TdV8 Vogue SE. Baltic blue 2015- date. https://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/topic56162...tty+affair |

I had a 50+ miles trip to do this morning, so I decided to do a forced regen.
Then I activated regen.
I got caught in heavy traffic through a 40mph section of road works…
But it kept saying “Regen in progress” despite me constantly having to slow and break, etc. Until I finally got home and pressed quit. Then displayed “live values”
It doesn’t seem to be anywhere near as sensitive to throttle changes as a normal regen and works over shorter distances. It might use a bit more fuel, judging from the oil contamination figure at the start and end. ??? Mike.

Cheers Mike , yes he emailed back instantly, fantastic service as usual. Firmware updated now too. I don’t have a huge amount of fuel in the car, can I fuel up after I press go? Garage is 1 mile away.

My wife's Ewok went straight to a red DPF Full warning. Turned out it needed a software update so amber warning would show. So it's possible the same might be true in this case. What do I put here then? |

Well just back, worked like a charm. Started at just over 32g, after 25 miles was down to 2.7g. If anyone has a link to an idiots guide to checking what pipes etc before a smoke test that would be greatly appreciated. |

Because yours is an L405, it will have the later modified hoses, so much less likely to be a problem.
