DPF issues

Post by cannonfodder » Wed Nov 09, 2016 9:43 pm

I've had my DPF cleared & burned of a few times now in close succession and was needing feedback on anyone that has had theirs removed & had a remap.  Would like the pros & cons or either a replacement or removal, cheers.

And invalidate your insurance, and has to be declared when you sell the car, as it isn't type approved any longer.
