Diesel - Normal Or Premium

[DaveD]

I thought all vehicles with a dpf carry out periodic regens, regardless of euro 5 or euro 6?

Never had one on my t5.1 in 65k. Twice per tank on t6 ( euro 6)

My regen is like a Pratt and Whitney jet engine

Never noticed your van doing a regen ??

Mine has never done 1 in a year and 0ver 12k miles (that I have noticed) T6 Euro 5

 

[teamfly]

Was forgetting the early t6's are euro 5.
Hate the frequency of the T6 regens and driving further / longer than I need to avoid switching off part way through a regen.

Never noticed my Euro5 T6 doing a regen nor any of the previous diesels I have owned, although used to get a hot exhaust smell occasionally from one of them as the regen finished as we stopped. The Euro6 Skoda diesel we have seems to regen much more frequently.

I have a euro 6 t6, never noticed it doing a regen, I'm doing 95% motorway for about an hour on each drive

Talking point!!
So will there be a more frequent regen if you use cheap supermarket fuel over main brand fuel.
only reason I’m asking is I’ve just done 3 tanks of super market fuel (was working very close to one so was easier) and I’ve just had to do the whole 15 minute@70 thing to regen which I’ve never had to do before using a named brand.

 

[Loz]

I wouldn’t think so.

 

[sparkywig]

I haven't found any difference.

 

[Dellmassive]

No difference IMHO.

2x regens per tank average for me 1/3 and 2/3rd tank marks.

Regular as clockwork
