Hello
I have a 120d f20 from 2017
Is it possible to register a new dpf with Carly?
If so how exactly does it work ?
I only found the option for regeneration
Many thanks in advance
Hello Danny93, Unfortunately, registering a new DPF is not currently possible with Carly. This is a more complex procedure that typically requires specialized BMW diagnostic equipment. I would recommend having this done by a professional mechanic or a BMW service center to ensure it's done correctly.

Hello!
I have had the particle filter off for clearing, how do i reset the warning that it is limiten remaining distance?
//Ingvar
Hello Ingvar.petersson, After having the DPF cleaned, the warning light should go off once the system recognizes that the filter is no longer clogged. If the warning light doesn't go off, you may need to reset the DPF light using a diagnostic tool. If you don't have access to one, I would recommend taking your vehicle to a professional mechanic or a BMW service center to have the light reset.

Diesel particulate filter info: limited remaining distance available ?
What exactly does it mean
Hello Alinn, This message typically means that your Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is nearing its capacity for storing soot and will soon need to be regenerated or cleaned. The DPF is a component in your vehicle that captures and stores exhaust soot to reduce emissions. Over time, the DPF can become full and will need to be cleaned through a process called regeneration. If you're seeing this message, it's likely that your vehicle will soon initiate this process. If the message persists, it might be a sign that the DPF is not regenerating properly and may need to be manually cleaned or replaced.
Hello, quick question for you: Vehicle BMW F31 320 d 2018 B47 Yellow triangle lights up on the car when reading out the DPF residual distance has been exceeded. The particulate filter was measured via Rheingold. The following values are out Idle : 10hpa 2000 rpm: 34 hpa Abregeltehzal : 97hpa Are these values normal or is it worth considering cleaning? Thanks for answering

Hello,
quick question for you:
Vehicle BMW F31 320 d 2018 B47
Yellow triangle lights up on the car when reading out the DPF residual distance has been exceeded.
The particulate filter was measured via Rheingold.
The following values are out
Idle : 10hpa
2000 rpm: 34 hpa
Abregeltehzal : 97hpa
Are these values normal or is it worth considering cleaning?
Thanks for answering
Hello BMWF31, The values you've provided indicate the pressure drop across the DPF at different engine speeds. Generally, a higher pressure drop indicates a more clogged DPF. However, the acceptable pressure drop can vary depending on the specific vehicle model and engine. If you're seeing a warning light for the DPF and your vehicle's performance is affected (e.g., reduced power, increased fuel consumption), it might be worth considering having the DPF cleaned. However, I would recommend consulting with a professional mechanic or a BMW service center to confirm whether this is necessary based on your specific vehicle and symptoms.

Where can I have my 2012 x5d dpf cleaned in area code 93162 in the US?
Hello, Unfortunately, I can't give you a clear recommendation as to where you can have this done. But my recommendation would be to look for a suitable workshop here and read the reviews of other customers. Best regards
