Hi all, I've posted a few things here about my most excellent Roomster 2.0TDi somewhere within here in the past.... Today I speak of my Yeti L+K 2.0TDi (2016) bought in July 1st 2020. It's Euro6 compliant and I live in Crouch End, North London (that's where the problems start) COVID has affected us all and I extend a heartfelt sympathy to those that have lost close ones to this awful thing. Those of us with these sort of cars that need a flogging from time to time are in a pickle. My lovely nearly new car (sub 40k miles) choked itself to death ...almost. I paid £300 for a very fast service to unblock my cars Butt, I learned much. My question is why my car fails to tell me when it needs a whopping big hot FART ? There is no caution to warn me early of a problem, only the three lights of the Apocalypse (DPF, Engine and "I'm Dead"). I'll keep it short, been a long day, last few times I've warmed the engine driving to Brent Cross in traffic (temp dial reaches 90...balanced) then hit M1 in Sport DSG and flog until Scratchwood (called summat else now) I noticed at least 3 times at different days, the temp gauge quickly moves to 110C for 20+ seconds then drops back to 90 no matter what I do, either in full auto or semi. I tried plugging monitoring things in the engine thingy but it's a bit dodgy at 90mph (JOKE !!) I ask myself did I buy a nice car to drive or perform open heart surgery every time I drive it ? A simple light to say "Flog me baby !" every so often and not a "you're choking me to death !" light to give me some indication. My point being, the temp needle rises to 110 for 20+ seconds when I stomp my Prosthetic hard down (yes, I'm disabled, right leg lower amp) and the whole deal is done with one cautionary note.... The DPF sensor often shows "over volatage" by 1V ....the part number is 03L 906 051B. Hope someone finds this useful....keep safe folks.... G
