If the DPF has been gutted there would be no pressure differential across it and thus it would show zero g soot load. A new or clean DPF will flow more exhaust gas at a higher pressure differential than an old and partially ash filled one so again the point at which it needs to initiate a regeneration may be higher. Just drive and monitor it and only worry if you get warning lights.


Absolutely correct. I also agree with the sentiments on this thread to leave it alone, don't fix what's not broken!. There is a propensity to mis-diagnose issues with L322 DPFs - the technology was not perfected when they bolted them on to sate the then new emissions rules and performance is not uniform.

Here are the trigger levels:

19.6g Demands Regen. The regen demand frequency increases exponentially as soot increases from here so when it gets into the 20s it will demand more and more. I have tested this exhaustively by deliberately driving short hops. As soot increases you only need to drive over 37mph for a few seconds to trigger a regen.

Amber Warning On 23.3g
Amber Warning Off 17.46g
Red Warning On 27.5g
Red Warning Off 21.25g

I would be interested to hear how your readings continue. 31.5g inferred with performance un-affected is unusual.
231 demanded regens on 135,000 miles (so average 1 regen every 584 miles) is a low number but within tolerance if your car has been mostly open road.

Please keep us updated!

Gutted DPF's will set a DTC due to lack of differential pressure, you either need to have the ECM software modified or introduce a downstream pressure drop within acceptable limits (2-5 Hpa is a good differential for a low DPF load). Ash load is calculated, not measured.

I’ve been chasing some error codes for a while and whilst checking some sensors, noticed the DPF remaining volume states 0 pints? What does this mean? Does it mean it’s full or is it empty? Do I need to do anything? I occasionally get a restricted performance error along with P050E, P041C and P040D codes with bank1 exhaust bank 212F/100C temps (failed??). Any thoughts??

Sorry, no idea why, but DPF remaining volume always reads 0.
100c is default (cold) value reading for exhaust temperatures sensors.
