I don't know if your sensor had a module, but when you drive diesel with faulty sensor, the computer will not do DPF regeneration.
That will overload DPF and once it exceed 200%, the car no longer will do regeneration on its own.
Meaning you created secondary problem.
Get better scanner, so you can have full picture what is happening.
If the shop replaced the sensor and it comes as a bad, go back to them.

According to the diagnosis, the DPF was regenerated successfully about 3 weeks ago, approximately 1500km driven since then 🤷♂️
The workshop will look at it again, but there is a long wait before the workshop has capacity…That's why I thought I'd post the problem here, in the hope that I might be able to get some good advice

On older cars, O2 sensor replacement cost in the range of $300, on newer Nox sensor with coding is reaching $1000.
Anyway, your 2011 doesn't require it.
Find out DPF load?
I ditto suggestion of going to different shop.

when you ask about dpf load, do you mean the differential pressure? If so, it is at 8 at idle and 67 at 3000 rpm, so not when driving but if I rev it. but before the regeneration it was at 510 🤷♂️Drove a trip today, and the car seems normal. Also checked with diagnosis, there were no error codes stored.




If it is above 100% and not doing regeneration, you have a problem. When it exceeds 200% - you are in deep do-do.
so if the dpf is over 200%, what is the solution then? new dpf?🙈




So if you have old DPF, who needs $500 cleaning job, I would consider new one.
SCN is new software, who forces owners to go to dealers only even for small repairs,

This guy is so full of BS and misinformation about the reason and how toos of SCN
See attached for the correct information and forget about sausage ***** types and diagnostics

but do you mean that the exhaust sensor that was changed must be coded anyway?
