MICK 330 Posted January 18, 2017 Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) google BMW warning signs & it says this is DPF.

If you do a lot of stop start town driving it causes the filter to block up. Take it down the motorway for a good run & with luck it will go out!?

jharar Posted January 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Well had long trip all the way from London Wolverhampton & back, I had my car in sports mode constantly had over 2500 rpm, Result achieved only 35mpg, but no luck with the dpf light.. I have contacted Sytner BMW they told me , DPF needs Regeneration £199... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIZ Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Make sure the car is reaching correct operating temperature, if it isn't could be a faulty thermostat which won't let the dpf regen. Worth checking out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
