DPF Warning Light Still On After Replacement - BMW x5

I recently replaced the DPF on my BMW x5 after receiving the end of life cycle warning. Despite replacing it and taking a long drive, the warning light still comes on after 10 minutes from starting the car. Is there a way to use Carly to inform the car system that a new DPF has been fitted and stop this warning light from appearing?

Summary of the thread

The main issue is that the DPF warning light on a BMW x5 remains on even after the DPF has been replaced. This could be due to the car's ECU not recognizing the new DPF installation. A suggested solution is to use the Carly diagnostic tool to reset the DPF adaptation values, which informs the car's system of the new DPF and should stop the warning light from appearing.

You may need to reset the DPF adaptation values using Carly or another diagnostic tool. This process informs the car's ECU that a new DPF has been installed. Check your Carly app for the option to reset or adapt the DPF settings. Let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance.

Hi there, So there is a function within carly to do this? I have not recieved my carly yet I only purchased it today. I am hoping there is an option within the carly app that will allow me to do thisas I have heard differing opinions while looking online. Google AI says it can but if I word it differently it says it cannot do this and can only initiate a regeneration. I was looking for clarification as to whether or not it could perform this function?

Do I need to purchase the SMART mechanic version to be able to Reset the DPF?

Yes, you will need the full version of the Carly app, which includes the SMART mechanic features, to access advanced functions like resetting the DPF adaptation values. Once you have it, follow the instructions in the app to perform the reset. Let me know if you have any other questions or need further assistance.
