Yeah someone has already posted that the regen automatically stops after a period at idle unless it's almost done then starts again when the conditions are right.
My regen starts about every 350km.
This the graph on page 65 taught me a lot. When I look at my soot calc value it starts to regen around 18grams just like what the graph says. Although I have never seen that dash light buring.
While I have never tried to see if a regen happens below 1/4 tank of fuel, I have seen it documented in quite a few places. Nice to know that soemone has tested it though thanks @Skyliner33
I suppose a forced regen might require a bit of trial and error, and would be good to have it documented.
DPF regens alter ignition timing to help increase exhaust temperatures which sometimes feel like a slightly lumpy idle/hesitation to rev
If your only doing short journeys you could be stuck in a loop of non complete regens ??
Mine went to 100% then started the regen, went down to 30% I think.
Think there's something in the settings about calibrating the %age. Not sure (and I'm not going at to the van to connect as it's peeing down here.
The thing that has me most bamboozled is, why with nothing done to the DPF would it not throw an EML when it failed to regen for over a thousand miles. Was that all just because of failed regens due to short journeys etc etc?
The differential pressure was way past the point of needing to tell...
I have a T6 Caravelle, CXEB 150Kw Engine, that goes into limp mode.
It needs the DPF to regen, but that has gone too sooty for normal regen, due to running with fuel light on.
Hence need to force regen.

I have an OBD reader (bluetooth) and an app, my regens seem to be happening VERY regularly. will check what soot level they start at, an update might be a good option. Has anyone got to the bottom of why Regens might happen more often than not an whether they will eventuallly do damage? I have...
If you've any concerns over DPF regen's would suggest getting the DPF monitor for VAG app and a suitable bluetooth obd dongle.
Essentially soot mass measured or soot mass calculated will trigger a regen when a set value is achieved - you can see these in the app.
Drive it. After the requisite mileage, once its up to temp itll do a regen.
Thats always assuming there isn't a fault or some muppet hasnt mapped it out.
Looks like it regenned after you left work and before you got home, I think! 29g of soot and 97% is an indicator of regen about to start, after regen mine goes to around 8g of soot. Not quite sure where soot mass measured comes in to play, minus 5.82? Eh?!
