thats interesting , thanks for the info. Very glad it’s a robust system.
I was worried about this dpf since day I agreed to buy the car.
I was concerned that looking after a car so carefully and lovingly as I plan to keep this for many years only for it to written off down the line with a failed DPF.
My wife’s car is a Honda Accord (my old car) which we have owned 11 years from new - not so much as a bulb gone , not one solitary issue of any kind just been perfect with superb petrol Vtec engine , the Volvo has a lot to live up to , I have to say though as time has gone by I have become very fond of the XC70
And although I am a reserved driver I find it very satisfying to blast away the typical Audi 1.9tdi nutter pushing on rear bumper !! Although this is my first diesel the D5 when rolling at least seems a high performance unit if called upon.
I bought the car as a family tool ( roof rack for kayak ) estate for holidays and the safety reputation the car has , but instead of just being a tool , I find myself waxing it and pampering it - guess I’ve fallen in love with this so called tool
