I was a little apprehensive when I bought my 2 litre diesel Insignia as I knew that my usual mileage was not up to maintaining the DPF in good condition. I previously had a Zafira and although this too was a diesel, it was prior to DPF's so I did not have that worry.
So now I have this car I keep an eye out for the warning light on the dash (what's it like?!) that will tell me either that it is overdue cleaning or cleaning is happening right now. I've only done a few hundred miles so far with no noticable reduction in performance and no warning light. I do make sure that I do a 60 - 70 mph run for at least 20 - 30 minutes every week.
Am I worrying too much? Can someone tell me what to expect please.
