I thought after the upgrade I would not see this issue, but in my surprised the issue is kept coming up now and then. After that I gave my car in to workshop multiple times for them to work on the issue, however the same issue again showed up after few days of the service done. The workaround is given by workshop people is to drive 50 kms straight on highway with consistent speed 50 to 60 without using clutch and break, I did try it but it was vain. Also I observed other issues like power loss and jerking, and I think they are inter related. I am frustrated now, there should be some permanent solution of this issue rather than giving the workaround, right? Why I need to burn fuel just to clean the filter?

As I am about to cross the Rockies at 65 mph the warning light for the "diesel exhaust filter overloaded, drive to clean" comes on.

I have now switched that off and I can now hear the satnav guidance voice slightly muting the radio, which is better. You can post now and register later. Rondy Posted November 16, Tizer Posted October 23, Hello, how did it go? I pressed ok and it went away but came back on today. I towed a couple hundred miles yesterday so how can that be.
