    Default sri cdti 150 lumpy idle/ low mpg?

    Hi there got a strange issue with my 08 vectra 1.9 diesel, for example the car will start fine and drive fine but sometimes after about 10 mins driving the inst consumption figures will drop in half and will run lumpy on idle, this wilt last for approx 10 mins then go back to norm or if u switch of engine and restart it clears, can anyone help?

    Sounds like its trying to perform a Regen of the DPF, do not switch it off when its doing this. Do you get a chance to give it a good run down a motorway from time to time, get it good and hot?
