is it possible that your DPF is so clogged so that you can't force regenerate.

 

It is all Russian Roulette - you can try whatever you want but if ECU doesn't like values...you're screwed.

 

 

You can take it off, get all large particles out. Burn it out with petrol and fire...it may work, it may not.

 

Mesh in DPF is fine and once it is clogged, you have to buy new one.

 

TDi cars are designed for long distances at constant speeds. It takes your engine to warm up at 0 deg C around 20-30km. Until then, your engine spills unburnt fuel into DPF and clogs it.

 

If you check out this forum, there is many idiots who drive short distances and then cry about dead DPF. Turbo cars are not for daily drive ;-)
