Default Re: MC Mondeo. Diesel fumes

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF).
The car injects additional, heated diesel into the filter to achieve a soot burn-off.
If this happens whilst stationary, you will hear a pulsing of the exhaust note, and a significant increase in ist. fuel consumption.

Did a dealer do the forced burn-off for you. I had one want to charge a ridiculous amount to do one, even when combined with a service :-/
