Has anyone heard of any DPF issues with the MK6 GTD?
Not had any DPF issues with my A3 Black Edition. If you are covering substantial mileage with a decent amount of motorway driving, it shouldnt be an issue.
Same here. The CR engines dont have problems like the old PD engines did. Awesome GTI said the only DPF problems they have seen is the pressure sensor failing (about £60 to replace).
Come to think of it I dont even recall mine doing a regeneration
i do a 380 mile round trip every 4-5 weeks (and a few motorway runs in between) so the exhaust get hot enough to burn the soot off without the ECU having to intervene.
My mates polo bluemotion seems to regen all the time (engine revs rise and fan comes on after switching engine off)
I'm loving my DPF at the moment, the tailpipes are completely clean & shiny (unlike my GTI's). At the last JKM dyno day, it was laughable how the GTI's and ED30's were chucking out black smoke, whereas my "Soot chucker" was blowing out practiacally fresh air
