Hi, new to this. We bought our 62 end of June. Love it... We are experiencing trouble withe the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). It caused me to brake down and towed to the garage. The garage had it all cleaned out and lovely. I did around 30 miles and it has happened again!(full of soot). He took it off and the engine was doing what it should, so there's obviously a problem before the filter? Anybody got some ideas as it's problematic to say the least. Please help, Mike

Faulty or gummed up egr valve. Could also be other sensors on the exhaust itself (mass airflow or front or rear oxygen sensor....most likely the latter). No way a dpf could fill with soot in such a short space of time after being regenerated.
