Can you give us more of an idea about your vehicle.
For instance, if it is 10 years old or 6 months old - the advice will be different. Secondhand? Warranty? DPF/EGR blanked or programmed out? etc etc
By a local garage clears issue for around 300miles then dpf light appears and clears a few days later seems to be a cycle eventually dpf light goes out and flashing coil and engine management light comes on
I’ve jus come to check the DPF after it’s overnight marination, there’s what looks like some sort of vortex generator inside the AdBlue injector hole.
Surely this cannot aid airflow?!
Pleased it worked out for you mate. I know a lot more about the dpf now and follow similar routine to you plus using VAGdpf just to make sure it all completes when it should. . Just a shame I had to learn the hard way

As MMI says, it may cause the DPF to not do regens, and if that is the case depending on how many miles you will do between now and June, I probably wouldn't leave it that long.
Same fault code - not sure if there is anything useful in these...

...going on since I mapped it and mapped out the egr. Lately the revs are now hunting when regenerating when I increase the revs and being stationary. I plan to take the dpf off soon soak it in dpf cleaner and jet wash it out in the opposite direction and see if it makes a difference on regen...
