No doubt there is a genuine interest and concern about rising oil levels in diesel cars with a DPF.

I completely agree - there were posts from that person which had completeley incorrect information and when I corrected it he would then choose some other erroneous fact to support his fallaciuos arguments

I also agree that the DPF issue is not plesant for those who have suffered it - but the incidence does seem to be dropping.

I wonder if asnother factor is a 'new car syndrome' - I have seen several new XC60s getting driven very hard on the local roads, clearly the owners were enjoying the new found power, once they get used to it perhaps the right foot will get lighter and the resultant soot becoming less
