Did a DPF clean solve your problem?? 🤔

I bought the car nearly 6 years ago with 30k on the clock. So roughly 15k a year after that. No idea how it was driven before I bought it.

Hello folks, I've done a search and it seems the fan staying on after you've turned the ignition off is a symptom of an interrupted DPF regen. But my fan comes on after you've turned the car off EVERY day after I drive to work (25 miles) and again after I drive home. Surely this isn't normal? Surely a DPF regen doesnt happen as often as that! There are NO lights showing on the dash. Now, yesterday the fan started coming on after a few minutes after turning the ignition off and would only go off after I started the car. This morning now the car is completely dead. I presume the fan came on at some point and ran the battery down, but can't be sure! Would this be a fan relay fault? Could it be a DPF problem? Anyone have any similar problems to this that could shed some light on this for me! My car is a 2014 diesel Octavia vrs with nearly 125k on it. Cheers, Jimmy
