Lexia procedure for "unblock diesel filter" message

Post by SaabC5 »

As the title says, i've recently had a message on the dash saying "unblock diesel filter". We had the DPF off and its been thoroughly cleaned out (couldn't believe how much crap/crud came out). Car is now out of limp mode and goes like a rocket but i'm still getting the occassional "unblock diesel filter" message so i'm presuming it needs to be reset via Lexia along with the eolys fluid which is being topped up today. Are there any guru's out there who know what menu/sub menu's we need to access in Lexia to cancel the message? My friend is a Renault specialist but has Peugeot Planet/Lexia/Diagbox etc but after 45 minutes of him being impatient we only worked out that i have 105ml of eolys fluid left hence the top up this afternoon. Will the system recognise its been topped up automatically or will we need to program it up? Any advice will be gratefully received,

Andy pleased you got the DPF sorted.

I'm interested in a reply to this as well, I plan on removing mine and like as much info on what Lexia is capable of on DPF rules.

You've probably researched this already, but just in case. One way to properly ditch the dpf is with a Galleto cable and Ecusafe s/w. Then it's all easy. Lexia on it's own isn't enough. IMHO don't spend the money on fluid.
