Hi, I have a 2011 Berlingo 1.6hdi 110bhp and have the "risk of particle filter clogging" warning and triangle on the dash. Car is running fine so will give it a good sustained high speed run to try and clear it. At 90000 miles I was wondering if it is needing a fluid top up and reset. Is there a separate warning for low fluid level and is it worth taking the dpf out to clean as I have seen in a few youtube vids.

Just got our dog van back today after putting it in for 'risk of clogging' and 'fluid level low' warnings last week. Had done 103,000 miles.
Ended up with a new DPF (completely blocked and new one cheaper than a clean) and a pouch refill.
Our guy who looks after all our vehicles charged us £420 all in (the DPF was £215) which I thought was quite reasonable. Far cheaper than a stealer I fancy.
