I’ve got some fairly heavy gauge fishing line actually, good call!

Just been out in the car and I’m convinced it’s stuck in regen mode. It’s really jerky and seems to be putting out blackish smoke from the exhaust all the time. Mpg is down considerably too, as well as it smelling really sooty from the exhaust. Read the codes again and it’s throwing the trap blocked again and the pressure sensor signal fault. I’ve ordered a sensor so will swap it out after cleaning the pipe work and then force a regen again and see what happens.
