P2463 (soot accumulation) 150km after DPF filter change
This is ridiculous, did someone have something like this? CEL (P2463) suddenly came on a highway, two months ago, followed by limp mode. Drove couple of thousands kms back home, and:
- regen at the workshop unsuccessful;
- change differential pressure sensor, regen unsuccesful;
- check inflow airpipes, no success;
- change all inflow gaskets, washed collector case, throttle valve, no succes;
- went to official dealer, changed diff pressure sensor again, no success;
- changed the dpf filter, suceess!
And what do you know? 200kms after dealer the same error is back again. What happens????

I agree. it's hard (maybe impossible) to see a new DPF clogging after 150 kms. A bad EGR can clog a DPF but even then why didn't you get an EGR code?
Are you sure that the dealer replaced your original DPF or did they just clean it? Personally, I would question whether or not the replacement was completed properly or at all..
