Just a quick update, i got the icarsoft 906 V 2.0 and was under the impression that you just plug it in and press a button and you sit stationary in the car on your drive and hey presto. not the case you've got to be up to temperature and driving at least 30mph,i started it with the thing jammed in the front cup holder, to see the temps it was showing, got on M62 for a blast and watched the dpf temp gradually rising but it stopped around 480 degrees and was dropping, so i thought it wasn't playing ball so i came off motorway after approx 15 miles, pulled over on lay by and started playing with the settings, eventually the engine revs went up on their own to just over 2000 rpm for about 15 mins and the dpf temp was showing around 586 degrees, anyway i shut it down but the soot filter light was still on, but as i set off i could feel the difference in power and once on the motorway it would pull like a horse again and not take it's time in climbing a gradient, and soot filter full message went off so happy days, moral of the story is as soon as you see a fault code regarding lambda or exh temp sensor fault change it sooner than later or the soot will build up to the point where the car is unable to do it's own re-gen
