DPF blocked again !

Postby Slicknick » Mon Mar 11, 2024 3:06 pm

Hi folks.....got the same problem again!!!! Prompt and spanner came up on the dash without any warning that filter is full . Usually get a prompt that filters overloaded drive now but this did not happen ? Do you think there may be a problem with the sensor as Ionlybhad it cleaned/regenerated a month ago with an oil and filter change too . Its the third time this has happened in 5 months !

I have watched many of his videos and he certainly knows his onions . He is right in saying that the DPF system on the later Transit Connects is unfit for purpose which in my experience I agree with . Why am The only person posting on here with this problem ...I can certainly not be the only one?

We don't have a lot of "connects" in the Mk6/7 Transit group which is why we don't get a lot of posts for them, they're not really proper "Transit". :wink: :mrgreen:

There is a separate "Connect" group... viewforum.php?f=54
