Is it an estate?
facelift autos have them as well as estates
Answer = tech2 or opcom (dont ask about opcom as we're not allowed to discuss it, but its laptop software, google for more answers )
Plasma's Tech2 services are now open and able to provide services
yeah its a facelift auto...
So it the saturation level isnt something you can check on the car's onboard computer?
nope, diagnostic software only, its all supposed to happen 'invisible' to the end user

I don't know if anyone in the UK has the "Confort Module" in his car.

I'm one in the mine. The DPF information works fine.
You can contact directly with the "inventor" of this gadget.

The module cost around 130 EUR.
I asked a similar question recently and ended up googling a bit - what I found is that the DPF fills at a rate of approx 1% for every 10 miles - it apparently regens at 100% - so it wil regen every 800-1000 miles (more often if lots of city driving) - the said diagnostic software will allow you to keep an eye on it! A dealer can do a forced regen for about £60 - but eventually the DPF will clap out and cost £1000+ for a new one. Only way to avoid this it seems is to do regular long trips/motorway journeys. On facelift cars there seems to be no way of knowing when a regen is or has taken place other than watching fuel consumption which drops dramatically when the process is occuring. I've had my auto about 2.5k and have never noticed a regen happen - I should have had at least 2. I am looking at buying the Software tool - but obviously you need a laptop too! It's a worry especially as I brought the Auto to avoid the dreaded DMF problems - never even knew it had a DPF until I cam on here!
