Hi,
My E91 320d 2011 got the DPF warning light a couple of weeks ago, i did a search on the internet and came to the conclusion that i would try to clean my DPF. After that i took it to an Indy garage who was´nt able to register a new DPF. They could´nt say why it didn´t work without further investigation and more money so i decided to try for myself instead and bought a cable with ISTA.
The regeneration is working and doing the cycles according to ISTA. I did the back pressure test in ISTA via the function menu with great result (5-10% of max mbar) and then tried to do the replacement procedure which also worked according to the program but when i look in the DDE Ecu the mileage is still zero and the error codes are still present.
Am i missing something when performing the reset procedure in ISTA?

When i perform the reset procedure i follow this instruction.

Hi,
I have a HP envy with windows 7 with 1,7mhz processor, old computer and i use usb D-can cable. I´m not 100% sure that it was the completion of the pressure test that solved the issue it could also been that the car was running. But start with doing a complete pressure test.
