Does this have a DPF (I assume it does) and if so what type ? I have read many posts on many sites that the DPF should be changed at around 75,000 - I have also read many posts saying as long as regeneration occurs frequently (as not to get blocked) it will only need changing as and if it starts to block. I have spoken to my local BOSCH garage who stated that they don't believe it needs replacing unless it starts to block and that they generally just clean them out, regenerate etc and that's fine. Surely if it is regenerated regularly and an additive is used which aids regeneration, why replace it if it's working fine, not blocked etc ? Thanks
