Sorted mine in end over 131k miles now and still going strong oil has settled down did need egr valve cleaning and then just used forte dpf, cleaner get on motorway and wind up revs 3500/4000 so it gets good n warm will chuck out lotta smoke but that is it burning out crap then just chuck an odd treament in every 3/4 months works for me. Still on original dpf and not had to touch head etc and yes, when it enters dpf cleaning mode it does chuck out smoke when accelerating, but normally nothing.  So In my case no doom n gloom, just try cleaning  egr valve (but do a good job) use treatment and if its like mine all will be fine. Mine is mostly is used on short runs 6/7 miles to and from work, no motorway driving no high speed work so would expect to clog up more than most. Dont know about wynns I have only used forte dpf cleaner and this works for me  hope this helps

Thanks for the help

will definitely give it a go

I think i have similar problem with my is220d. Its a 57reg with 85k miles.

Sometimes it smokes alot will changing gear and accelerating from traffic lights. Somedays it hardly smokes and just see some puff.

Oil and coolant level are fine. I think its the dpf.

Will using wynns dpf cleaner help to clear the Dpf?

Money is abit tight any suggestion.

I had the same problem with my car (injector 1).

Seems like pretty common fault with diesel cars.

I got my fixed locally in Leicester at Welham Motors for £100.

Lexus dealership quoted me around £400.

Congrats
