Arkana Hybrid DPF and Exhaust Sensor Issue

I own a 2021 Renault Arkana Hybrid, mileage 108446 km. I'm experiencing a warning light on the speedometer and smoke during acceleration. Suspect the exhaust back pressure sensor. Anyone else encountered this?

A 2021 Renault Arkana Hybrid owner is experiencing a warning light on the speedometer and smoke during acceleration, suspecting an issue with the exhaust back pressure sensor. Another owner with the same model suggests checking the sensor readings with an OBD scanner to confirm the fault. It is recommended to have a workshop diagnose and replace the sensor to ensure proper handling and avoid further emissions issues.

I have the same Arkana model. Similar symptoms point to a faulty exhaust back pressure sensor. Have you checked the sensor readings with an OBD scanner to confirm?

I haven't checked the readings yet. Where is the exhaust back pressure sensor located, and is it a difficult task to replace it? Do you know the part number by any chance?

Accessing it can be tricky depending on your mechanical skill. A workshop might be better equipped to diagnose and replace it correctly to avoid further vehicle emissions problems.

Thank you for the insight. I'll take it to a workshop for diagnosis and replacement. The estimated repair cost is 245€.
