Almost identical to mine although I do often drive short distances with the occasional 600km long drives (non-stop). I've always believed that the circa 200km
The frequency of normal DPF regeneration is a function of the engine run time, miles driven, and fuel consumed since the last regeneration event. Under normal operating conditions, the normal DPF regeneration is initiated after approximately 85 gallons of fuel used or a maximum distance traveled of 2009 km (1250 miles.)
This was caused by shutting off the engine several times while it was actively regenerating. You can tell when this is happening by the heat generated and by the instant fuel consumption rising. But you are right. Cars should have a DPF regeneration light to warn you not to shut off the engine while active regeneration is taking place. Tags
