NOTE
In the case of a particle filter heavily loaded with soot, it can occur that the
regeneration request is blocked again after a short time or is not released.
In this case, it is required to regenerate the particle filter
by driving the
vehicle for
approx
imately
30
minutes
at
a
constant
speed
.
Subsequently, the service function “Particle filter regeneration” must be run
again.
During the regeneration phase and with the engine running, it can also
occur
that the display
message changes
f
rom
“Regeneration active” to
“Regeneration not active”. This behavior can be seen exclusively with the
vehicle stationary
.
Particle Filter Test
It is advisable to carry out a series of particle filter tests as a result of constant
DPF regeneration, such as checking oil level, oil change interval for diesel
contamination, swirl flaps, backpressure sensors and particle filter soot
remains.
