Bahnstormer had his removed by Shark Performance when his Yeti was a few weeks old.

Sent using whatever device I'm using at the time.

Why?

I have had intrusive re-gen and 5 times now have had to go out for a run to clear the warning light. I do like the performance, economy and drive-ability of my 140 but my new order is the 1.8 mainly because for my use the DPF is a pain. It also restricts the tuning potential. I'm sure the baby foxes cough a little less but the extra weight and complexity are things the Yeti would be better without.

I would suggest you have the differential pessure sensor checked. This seems the most likely reason for the excessive regens.

Thanks Agerbundsen but since I have an L&K on order I'll leave that to the dealer on trade in!
