Just finished a 50 odd mile drive, the car has not attempted a regen, not sure it would as soot level seems low. still a feint smell of fumes. Not sure how to describe it, it’s not necessarily exhaust fumes but fumes from neat diesel. I can’t see a leak or anything that looks like it’s been contaminated though

Just got obd11 and checked some values: oil ash mass: 34.7196678g Soot mass measured: 0.47g soot mass calculated: 10.06g Time since last regeneration : 2.896h Km since last regeneration: 167.9km should I be looking at anything else? do these look ok?

Hi, picked up a second hand superb from non-ŠKODA dealer last weekend. its 2.0tdi 150 with 7spd dsg. 85k miles. Everything very tidy, drives spot on. They changed the belt and water pump as promised, turns out they didn’t do the oil/filters service they’d agreed to do so they’ve said to take it back in…. They did do a fresh mot for what it’s worth. They’ve warrantied it for 12 months, with lots of caveats I’m sure - probably not worth the paper it’s written on but a bonus nonetheless I have noticed a bit of a smell of diesel/fumes as I get out of the car and when I have a sniff around the engine bay it is there too but can’t for the life of me work out where it’s coming from. Seems strongest at the front of the engine, but don’t know if it’s the fan causing a weird airflow. When the engine is warm ive noticed that the oil gives off fumes, but looking around I think that is normal for this engine, may be wrong though. Before I take it back and ask them to look into it, does anyone have any pointers? I’m banking on them dismissing it and telling me they can’t smell it…. thanks!
