 Hello all.
We have 2014 GP 1.6 diesel. Week ago gor message on screen "Particle filter level low". Ok. Got fluid. Went to garage. They filled the container but cant reset the error message. Mechanic told me that previous owner/garage did not completed reset procedure. Now they tried fe wcomputers and still nothing. I was offered another option to reinstall ecu software if I am correct. Garage did not used Lexia wich I have at home. Is there any way to check/fix this with Lexia?
Can I use the car untill the ecu reset/fix?

Thank you for any information.

 pretty sure that if a reset isnt done fully it comes up as a continuous not completed error, this happened to me when i reset clutch on my egs but didnt bother to complete gearbox recalibration which follows clutch reset,
i think on lexia or diagbox you have to find 'reports'(i think ) when you get them up delete the incomplete report, this will stop error ,this hopefully will allow you to reset dpf counters which i have done on older cars with lexia which hopefully will end your problem,, when i reset dpf additive counters there was a 'how to 'on french car forum or suchlike, sure you will get one for your car if you search.

 i just did a quick search on google and came up straightaway with this on a 2007 gp, if its not right for yours ,sure you can find right one quite quicly,
With engine not running but ignition on, open DiagBox, click on ‘REPAIR’. Once it has gone through all systems:

Hightlight 'INJECTION/IGNITION' and click the green 'TICK'

Click ‘PACK REPARATION’

Click ‘AFTER-SALES PARTICULATE EMISSION FILTER REPAIR OPERATION’

When asked ‘IS THE VEHICLE FITTED WITH AN EXTERNAL DIESEL ADDITIVE ADDING ECU?’ Click 'X'

Click ‘REPLACEMENT OF THE PARTICLE EMMISSION FILTER AND WORK ON THE ADDITIVE ADDING CIRCUIT’

Click ‘FUEL ADDITIVE ZERO RESET’

Disconnect diagnostic

Turn ignition off

Open fuel flap

Wait 10 seconds

Close fuel flap

Switch ignition back on and hope for the ‘Low FAP’ warning not to appear.

 Was googling for hours yesterday. In other cases people say they must enter the amount of fluid used to refill container. Will try your instructions.
Thank you.

This is very confusing.

 I think the original post is for Add Blue. Mine is EOLYS I did as above on Diagbox, also couldn't amount added, Nor a reset button. But my warning has gone, so I'm happy. My plastic pouch was well sucked dry. So was not sure when it actually ran out. I put a bottle of DPF cleaner in the tank then went for a half hour drive third gear 70pmh. After that, found the Forced regeneration in diagbox and did that also.
