My 2012 L322 tdv8 is having problems with the DPF full amber warning coming on frequently, I’ve been told I need a new EGR temperature sensor and re-gen and Ive booked it in with my local independent RR specialist for Thursday. Yesterday I did 46 miles before it popped up I did the re-gen procedure and it cleared but came back after 12 miles it cleared again and this time lasted 7 miles, I gave up and headed home, and without try to do a re-gen it cleared, hoping the sensor replacement will cure the problem as apart from this I love the car

I think this thread might help mate.

Hi Paul,

This sounds abnormal.

Yes the faulty sensor can cause DPF filling up too quickly (but not always) - but your is filling up way too fast.

You might have the sensor issue (relating to the error code) together with something else. I'd be looking for a split in your intake hoses. There are four that feed into a donut shaped plenum.

But if you've just bought it, get it back to the dealer to sort.

. Cheers, Greg

I’ve looked at the hoses there doesn’t appear to be any splits

RR London should be able to diagnose it properly - I see from FB you are booked in..  2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

It’s going in on Thursday morning for an EGR temperature sensor replacement, I’m hoping that might have something to do with it.

Will do mate

Well car went in at 0845 to have EGR sensor replaced, “it’s a pretty simple procedure “ says the guy who booked me in “we’ll call you when it’s ready”, get a call at 1630 think to my self great, only to be told “ your car won’t be ready today, there’s a problem with the sensor, it should be ready by tomorrow late afternoon” I only hope that they don’t expect me to pay any more than the 3.5 hours they quoted me to do the “simple procedure”

Maybe the replacement sensor was faulty.... 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

I’ve got my fingers crossed that’s what it was as I’ve only budgeted for the work quoted 🤞🏻

Fingers crossed for you sir...

The JLR book time is 0.8hrs... Just incase that helps fight your corner...

They quoted me for 3.5 hours including a re-gen

The latest update is that the “problem” with the sensor was that it broke in the manifold when removing it, leading to a lot more work than just taking the old one out and putting the new one in, on the plus side I was offered a courtesy car although I declined as I’m not going to be needing a car this weekend. Ross couldn’t have been more apologetic that I wasn’t properly informed of the problem and assured me that the cost won’t be passed on to me, which is good to know 👍🏼
