    DPF Issue?

    OK, I've had my Scout for almost a month now and love it. But......

    ....I was driving along earlier this evening and the DPF warning light came on. Surely it's just a glitch, but still a PITA to have to take it back to the dealer so early (although 1100km, so maybe they could do the "1500km check" at the same time).

    Unless there's a known DPF issue that people have heard of?

    i think its just clogged up. there is an easy but rather annoying cleaning procedure requiring you to keep the revs constant at certain rpm. you should ask the guys in the diesel section
