Just a rider before you watch the video. The DPF in the i30 diesel ( from 2007 in the UK but only from 2017 in Australia ) has been generally amazingly trouble free. But if you have had, or have problems with one in the future, some of what John says could be of value.

I'm posting the link from my tablet so if it doesn't work just search Auto Expert on youtube and look for "DPF Death"
