bengildea wrote ... Hello Craig, did you get any confirmation on this? Hi OK the garage have said the DPF filter is blocked and the car has not been regenerating the DPF filter causing it to block. They have found that the Eolys tank was empty and they have refilled the tank and they are busy cleaning the DPF filter, when it was removed it was completely blocked or near enough. Once they have put the DPF filter back on they are going to check the communication of the Eolys tanks and the BSI module and check to see if everythings communicating together properly. The car should have indicated that the Eolys Tank was empty, so it looks like there is probably a communication fault also, but will keep you updated when I get more news. |

Thanks Craig. Please keep me informed. I'm on the verge of taking it back as the others have suggested but I'd rather not part with it. If this is the problem then I'm sure I can deal with it. | ||

The more I think the more I'm leaning towards taking it back and looking for another. I'm hoping the garage will be civil about it, I'd rather sort it out without getting trading standards involved. Do you guys think I have a good case if I have to go to trading standards with it? |

Nothing wrong with the car in general and it's no better or worse than any other modern car. It's the standards of servicing/repairer's out there that let things down |

Don't mean to suggest that you should never purchase privately, but the "safety net" is never the same as when you purchase from a dealer. |
