Dude , why to twist every subject into your oilfetish ?
Dpf's stop indeed ash , but not as an intended cause but as a unwanted consequence.
They are intended to stop (temporarly) soot and to burn it in batches wich leaves tiny unwanted quantities of ash wich will build over time

Point was that bad injectors or to much bhp remaps will create more black smoke but a dpf masks it
(the increased regeneration cycles dont) so know where to look
