Im looking at cleaning out my DPF as getting even more soot building up on the outside of the Turbo. Car is running fine but MPG has dropped a bit.
Car is 1.6HDI, am I correct in thinking that my Cat/DPF is in 2 parts and very simple to split. I have had Elios fluid refiled adout a year ago. Im getting DPF system fault code 0238 -turbo boost sensor A circuit high at the moment on occasions, as well as a few others.

There are posts on here detailing the 1.6 builds up soot on the outside of the turbo, but I don't think this is related to a choking DPF.

asume the 2 sensors are pressure moniters to tell the ECU how bocked the filter is, on the front there is a stainles pipe going in to DPF that comes from a switch/valve on the rad, is this for the DPF fluid.

What is that used for?
What do I do, just blow with air line, or take it off the pipe and blow it through? |

Mine was off a few months ago when the clutch and DMF were replaced so all bolts should be ok, or do you mean they are a pain in the arse to remove from the car or to split Cat/DPF?
