Hi all,
I have a '19 1.5 blue DCI QQ, and I'm new with DPF Cars. Mine has 2000kms, and honestly never felt anything that lead me that DPF is regenerating. Done a few highway but 50% is city...

Só my question is, how do I know the car is regenerating? Is there anything one can plug and bem aware?

Apart from that, is there any reader for erro codes, just in case?

I'm not a diesel owner and had no experience of DPF procedure before. However, the following vid gives some guidance. Indication of events to do with DPF appears to be the check engine light and what the code reader in the vid reveals.

I would have thought (hoped) your handbook would have explained procedure ..a bit?

Manual Regen is by Nissans own software tool normally. There are other expensive tools however of the make in this video.
