Touch wood the DPF full hasn’t come up since the last time I cleared it on 2nd Oct (prior to the sensor being replaced) although they did a forced regen on it when it was in the garage 🤞🏻

Great!

What was the bill in the end if you don't mind me asking?

Regards,
Greg

2011 Vogue SE 4.4 with lots of toys in Stornaway

3.5hours Labour @£125 per hour and £79.20 for the sensor plus VAT making a total of £620.04

£125 per hour, jeez thats expensive, ouch BMW i3 Electric Car
2012 Full Fat RR 4.4 TDV8 (now gone)
2006 VW Touareg 3.0 TDi V6

Ross knows his stuff but yeah I know, it's very high as an hourly. £150/hour inc vat. Central London and all that.

But that job (I know, having just done it myself) takes more than the 3 hours billed. I'd say somebody experienced might take 6-8 actual hours excluding the regeneration (which would be another hour minimum).

If I did the sensor replacement again, I might allow 8 hours now I know what I'm doing (and what tools I need).

Glad / hope it stays sorted.

Thw sensor was seized in the manifold and broke when it was being removed, so it took a lot longer than what was what I was quoted and paid for so I’m well happy

Has it cured the issue? Hope so  Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"
