My XT was once again at the dealers this week. However good news and a first rate service from the dealer.The oil leak on my car was traced to a split intake pipe. This pipe was split at the point where the pipe connects onto the turbo charger. Whilst at the dealers they reprogrammed the ECU. The ECU now waits for ten DPF cleaning failed incidents before putting on the amber warning light.
The dealer explained that you dont know when the engine is performing a DPF cleaning cycle, if you arrive home and turn the ignition off in the middle of a cleaning cycle, then this is classed as one failed attempt. The dealer told me that a new fifth injector has been fitted to new XT's. This injector injects fuel into the exhaust to increase the exhaust temperature which clears out the DPF filter.
They also carried out a regeneration of the DPF filter, this meant that my engine oil had to be replaced, It was only changed two weeks ago as part of my M2 service.
So it's wait and see, but again I must praise my dealer Firsway Nissan in Leigh Greater Manchester.
