It would attempt then a second or 2 it would abort the attempt. I gave it a full service and fitted new hoses. Put the new sensor on for good measure too. Then instigated a full DPF regeneration. It took about 10-15 minutes (even tho it said it would take 5) and there was moments where it kicked out good amount of smoke so it done the job. All errors including DIM error messages cleared and permanently gone. Car fixed.

Did you have any issues with the temperatue gauge going up on hills or when on the motorway??
I've been having a similar problem with DPF not regenerating etc, seemed to have sorted the issue with the DPF but I still have an intermittent over heating issue.
