You really notice the DPF burn when you come to a stop while it’s in progress.
Engine note “pulses”, it burps and farts, inst fuel consumption at idle is high, and an unpleasant odour is emitted.
Ours always used to pick the last part of the journey, when we were backing into the garage :-(
No real problem, just take off for a quick blast, and it’s over.
