Currently sat at a services after being towed by Rac to a safe place off the motorway.
Booked my car in on Friday and paid to have the DPF gutted and a remap (after repeated issues getting blocked and going into limp mode with EML and Glow plug light).
Collected car later that day, felt great after leaving the garage, felt like a different car, was very happy. 2 mins after pulling onto the dual carriageway on the way home the DPF light came back on the dash. Car still felt good so I called the garage and the bloke said it could be a sensor, told me to disconnect battery, then connect and after around 10 miles the light should go out.
Anyway the next morning I did that and had to set off on a long journey for an emergency. Car felt okay with the light on so would get it sorted when back home (currently in Liverpool).
Car started normally today to go back home so I set off, car felt slow and sluggish just driving through residential area, 2 mins onto the motorway (5 mins after setting off) the car lost all power (felt like limp mode but no EML light or Glow plug light and actually ground to a halt. (luckily managed to get it onto hard shoulder just in time. Car turns over sounding awful, and cuts straight out.
Rac bloke tested it and there are no fault codes detected at all. DPF light still on dash.
Currently sat in cold and waiting for a recovery truck wondering why the **** I had to have a dpf on my car. Any ideas what it could be guys? I thought if the dpf was gutted and mapped out, then the dpf light should never be seen again? Also the rac guy said he could tell the dpf had been removed, but couldn't see it welded back together.
Help is appreciated. Am getting it towed to the garage tonight and have told them it's on its way back.
