Hello all My van t6.1 has been in limp mode because of a dpf filter is blocked. I have taken it to vw garage Peterborough and they have said that it's because the fuel had been run low and because of this they are refusing to do the work under warranty. I took delivery of the vehicle in Feb...

While under the van today applying lanoguard I noticed it appears to have 2 catalytic converters? Can anyone confirm that both are and also would anyone recommend getting some sort of protection for them? Years ago we have a catalytic converter stolen from our sprinter van and of course...

Hi, you know we cannot read DPF measurements by regular way. Only if you can see it with compatible OBD and the app called VAGDPF on Android based Head Units/Phones/Tablets. So, i want to share these Custom PID codes for using another apps like Torque OBD. You can use these codes for on any app...

I had my van remapped yesterday and would just like to know people options on the results. I’m no expert at all in this area but from research I have done the gains I got compared to others with same engine seem quite low. Also the after graph doesn’t look a lot different to the before. The...

As a newbie non-mechanic owner of a 2019 T6, can anyone describe to me a simple schedule for keeping my DPF in good health? I have been trying to understand various posts on the subject but can’t seem to get a handle on how often / how far / how fast I need to drive to be getting a passive regen...

Hi all, First time owning a T6 and the joy of DPF that comes with it. It's an 18 plate 204, but has a revo stage 1 map if that makes a difference? Just wanted to check if this sounds right... I do one motorway trip a week ( 30 mins each way), and then some start stop town driving under...
