DPF filter/fuel in oil C30
Hi, if a DPF filter has been blocked would this cause diesel to get in the oil?

Not as I understand it.
Fuel gets into the oil when regens of the DPF fail because the engine is shut off before they are compleated. Engine needs 30 minuits at 50 mph + for a regen in normal service. Paul. |

So if this happens does the oil need to be changed?

On my car I would, wether it's strictly nessesary depends on whom you ask.
I have stripped engines that had oil contaminated with petrol after a lift pump diaphragm leaked it into the sump. The big end and mains bearings were not in a good state. Diesel is less aggressive in breaking down the oil film that protects the bearings but it still does it. Paul. |

It is at the top of the max mark on the dip stick.
