Yeah, gave it a quick visual inspection. Nothing obvious, but those sensors can be tricky. Did you manage to fix yours yourself, or did you end up taking it to a shop?

I'm usually pretty hands-on, but this one stumped me. Ended up going to a workshop. Best bet is probably to get it properly diagnosed and replaced, especially if you're getting DPF issues.

Appreciate the advice! Took it to a local garage, and you were spot on - faulty exhaust back pressure sensor. Cost me 245€ for the fix, but at least she's running smoothly again!

Sounds familiar! I had a similar experience with my 208 diesel. Same symptoms: smoke, warning light, DPF problems. Have you checked the sensor itself for any obvious damage or loose connections?
