Venue diesel particulate filter issue

Hey, hoping someone can help. My 2020 Hyundai Venue diesel is giving me grief. Only done 22731 km. I've noticed the engine power is way down, and it's blowing smoke when I accelerate. I suspect it could be the diesel particulate filter?

A 2020 Hyundai Venue diesel with 22,731 km is experiencing reduced engine power and smoke during acceleration, suspected to be due to a diesel particulate filter (DPF) issue. The symptoms include decreased fuel economy and an engine warning light. A similar issue in another diesel vehicle was resolved by addressing a defective DPF, suggesting that a thorough diagnostic evaluation by a qualified technician is necessary. The problem was confirmed to be the DPF, which required replacement.

Greetings. I experienced a remarkably similar predicament with my 2017 Peugeot 308, also diesel-powered. May I inquire as to whether you have observed any alteration in fuel economy? Also, has the engine management system illuminated any warning indicators on the instrument panel?

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. The fuel economy seems a bit worse, yeah. And there's definitely an engine light on the dash. What was the problem with your Peugeot exactly?

Affirmative. The symptoms you delineate are strikingly reminiscent of a defective diesel particulate filter. In my particular instance, the backpressure within the exhaust system had increased substantially, thereby precipitating a reduction in engine output and the emission of visible smoke. I would advocate seeking guidance from a qualified automotive technician at your earliest convenience to conduct a thorough diagnostic evaluation.

Cheers. I appreciate the advice. Turns out it was the DPF, just like we thought. Had to get it replaced; cost me 1550€! Ouch.
