Hello Tommylangvatn, 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. Please keep us updated on your progress.

Hello Steve, The soot level in your Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) can be reduced through a process called regeneration. This process burns off the accumulated soot at high temperatures, turning it into ash. There are two types of regeneration: passive and active. Passive regeneration occurs during long drives at steady high speeds, like on a highway. Active regeneration, on the other hand, is controlled by the engine control unit and can occur under various driving conditions. If your vehicle supports it, you could try a forced regeneration process. However, if the soot level doesn't decrease or if you're experiencing other issues like reduced power or increased fuel consumption, I would recommend having the DPF inspected by a professional mechanic. Please keep us updated on your progress.

Hello Javier, Error 452A typically indicates an issue with the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) system. Even if your car seems to be working perfectly, this could be a sign that the DPF is becoming clogged and may need to be cleaned or replaced soon. You could try a forced regeneration process if your vehicle supports it, which can sometimes clear the DPF. However, if the error code persists, I would recommend having the DPF inspected by a professional mechanic. Please keep us updated on your progress.

Hello Valeentiin, 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. Please keep us updated on your progress.
