More soot will be generated when it's cold due to longer warmup times. Also the manufacturers change the blend during cold months to prevent wax forming but not sure if this has any influence on soot buildup but if it's an addative that makes the fuel less efficient it may do. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

Thank you for your reply. The car is a 16 reg and the previous owner had full service history direct from JLR. So we presumed it was well looked after.

I've had a few issues over the last 6 months after having a nightmare journey with constant stop start traffic and allowing the fuel to get too low to regen , sorted po40d, had intermittent oxy sensor issue which I replaced (bosch part is £100 LR part is £200 + and is a bosch part !!), after unsuccessful attempts at cleaning on car i took it off (unbolts from LH turbo outlet and cat and 2 cuts in tailpipes ) for a proper cleaning , cost £150 to clean with 2 year warranty , currently it's behaving well and I'm regularly plugging the gap in to check readings but so far so good . Personal advice is take it off and get it cleaned as it's not silly money and you know you are starting with a clean DPF when resetting everything . |

I'm in Leeds and the co is ITS turbo's (i've used them for about 15 years for turbo rebuilds) but they've started cleaning dpf's over the last few years , there cleaner is big enough to fit the dpf in with both inlet pipes fron LH turbo and RH cat on so only 2 cuts required on outlets (which i made on the straights that are arbout 40 deg to longditudal line of car before the bends where they go back straight ), they are in Drighlington on the outskirts of Leeds , £150 +vat with 2 year warranty and usually 24/48h turnround , local to me so dropped it off n picked it up a couple of days later. RR is not only transport as have old Disco as works van, dog wagon general run around for muckier jobs , RR is for weekends, long journeys and tugging tin tent or car transporter for work if needed as Leeds is a joke for anything with dpf and rapidly getting worse .(can't wait till i move north next year ). |

Logging my regen interval at around 130 miles doing a constant 70mph which is likley a consequence of ash load after 170k miles and toying with having it cleaned. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |
