Hi , I've been searching this forum for hints that might help me but to no avail.
I've a 2018 1.6tdi octavia with big miles on the clock.
I had issues with the dpf 3 years ago & had a new 1 fitted by skoda. Car has been in limp mode with fault lights on & off for about a year now ( no power, burning oil etc. )
My mechanic has recently carried out a carbon engine flush & last week he fitted a reconditioned turbo unit ( the old 1 was carboned up & fins were sticking ) and i had the dpf chemically cleaned in a dpf centre. Car is not using oil since the carbon flush.
The issue now is that the dpf is regenerating a lot ( no engine lights on the dash ) & fuel consumption is up almost 50%.
My man thinks it could be a blockage in the silencer box causing back pressure forcing the dpf to keep regenerating.
I've spent a lot of money trying to get the car right as its my work vehicle but I'm wondering if we're missing something?
Any advice would be appreciated, cheers.
