And how were these 3000 miles driven?

Remove the whole DPF system..

doylebros:
I would try a good one hour run down the motorway (at a constant 70) then seen how that works out.

This is a common town vehicle problem and requires a weekly blast for twenty minutes above fifty,without interruption for the system to work correctly.

After that it's spending money and it's which ever of the above suits you.

GrayMK5GTI:
My CR170 regen's every 600ish miles anyway, and even less if only used around town, although it's barely noticeable when it's doing it.

3000 miles between regen's is a LOT  :confused: is it 3000 miles since the light came on do you mean??

PD170's  are not suited to the DPF which is why so many people have problems, even when it is driven "properly". Common Rail TDI's are much happier with the DPF  :happy2: - mine has given me a trouble free year of motoring now, even with lots of short trips mixed in with long drives. Loving the shiny tailpipes  :grin:

Just got a Tiguan with a 2.0CR, will be removing the DPF then reinstalling the same pipe, then having it mapped out
