Default DDE/DPF problem (with Screenshots)

Hi guys

I would like to ask your help regarding an issue Im facing : the notorious DPF .

Ive made an INPA test and noticed 480A and 481A were present. I cleared the errors so I went to about 80 km ride (with speed >60 km/h, usually 80-90km/h) in the hope the dpf regeneration will start.

When I came back to check if there were any errors, it seems the errors came back.

Made some screenshots on my inpa.
Also the exhaust back pressure was quite high.

Do you have any advice what I can do in this case?
Should I just try to clear the errors again and re-do a 60-90 km ride ?
Maybe a forced regeneration? ( Do you think it would be easier with DIS(v44 or v57? ) or NCSexpert )?
Or should I just remove the DPF (hard and soft removal) ?

Sandrokarton is spot on.

If your normal driving temperature is 75C then you may have one or two bad thermostats and this has been the cause of DPF issues for many people - including me.

After I replaced mine the temp went to around 90C.

I also had to replace the glow plugs so check these.

Good luck.
