    Can someone convince me that after doing close to 140k with the swirl rod missing, I should still replace this part? car is going very well after dpf drilled through. It's had its sensors cleaned/maintained over the years when thing have got lumpy and that has seen me through the miles its covered to date. Am I missing something?

    It all depends in which position the swirls are when the bar falls off. If they stick open then you will have issues, but if they are shut then you'd be fine.

    Do you have a DPF? Usually auto's and estates have them?

    If you do then that can be mapped out too

    I got a long sds drill bit and put 5 or 6 holes through my dpf before blast out any debris with compressed air (also compressed air down the vacuum hoses on the side). Its running great now for almost 10k miles. Light on dash but doesn't impact performance afaics and smokes a bit at times on acceleration but not as bad as some have mentioned
