DPF equipped diesels aren't the ideal choice if one's route is short & slow. They are a known migraine source. Once they're clogged & the DPF light pops, even active regeneration will be helpless. Removal, cleaning or replacement are required...The procedure is tedious & costly. In Europe & Oz, many have resorted to DPF-Delete+ECU tweak til inspection time.
DPF is advertised for the environment. A good guise for its other purpose..... dealership dependence. Be warned. Go petrol.[emoji4]
