skoda_dpf_issues

Only it doesn't even if you fill with a full tank of fuel.

Yes it uses adblue, rather a lot I would say about 4 litres a month. Bill is for replacing the dpf.

I found that the 1.6 Karoq tries to do a dpf regeneration at least every 500 miles and if there isn't enough fuel then it fails and will never regen unless you take it to the garage. Clearly massively flawed design. Having a three month old car and a three thousand pound bill for a dpf filters is the outcome for me. I would warn anyone to avoid Skoda Karoq with a diesel engine.

I could never recommend buying a Skoda diesel if it has a dpf filter. My personal experience of Skoda garages and Skoda customer services is that they are not interested in any dpf problems and ignore all questions relating to how dpf generation should work properly. I would save your self a whole lot of pain and either get a petrol engine or something other than Skoda.
