Personally I would take it for a drive.that way you get the car at the correct conditions for the re gen..I cleared mine this way in the xc7that I have . There are instructions on the forum of how to do it ,its basically a Italian tune up

quite the opposite actually a steady drive at 50 - 60 mph is all that is needed , high rpm does nothing to help except waste your precious fuel . the extra heat comes from fuel injected on the exhaust stroke not burning more with high rpm .. .

I think he meant "Italian Tune Up" as in "fix it by driving it" rather than "rev the nuts off it".
No mention of high revs in Outnumbered's post Cheers Dave |

Regen successful. Reading 0.03g on vida. only issue now is a flipping fuel leak. I found the mass culprit which was the no4 injector pipe nut not tightened enough on the rail. Thsts not leakkng now, but still have a small drip, cant locate it for the life of me tho. Possibly just build up. Any ideas? Note, injector pots look wet, i don't have the o rings under the bracket on the injectors, just the copper seals ( new). Been told on seperate post that they are not required??

Italian tune up by its name is high rpm for long periods 👍

Hi clan,
The rail pipes are new. All were tightened up. One was leaking adter a drive. This has now been tightened up. The rail was then dried up, it is still dry, but there is a really slow drip, and when i say slow. Its made a 50mm circle overnight. Was the advice correct for the injectors not having the o ring and c clip being ok? I renewed the copper seals. |

Is it coming from the leak off pipe, they go hard and brittle over time .
