Hello
Recently I was trying to find out when is DPF regen happening to my car.
Via vGate vLinker MC scanner and Car Scanner pro I was surprised to find out the following:
[ECM] Soot level: 42.18g.
[ECM] Distance since last DPF regeneration: 6921 km
[ECM] Odometer: 172559 km


Do you think that driving for 6921 km (including highway driving) with no regen is normal?
What does soot level: 42.18g mean? Is it much?
The engine pulls well and has no other problems.
No warning engine lights or anything.
Actually, 2 months ago I had troubles with DPF, and car had no power at certain time, but after some days on the highway that went away.
Note: Car Scanner is not showing sufficient data with Kia Carens 1.7 CRDI profile, so I was to use another profile - for Hyundai i40 1.7 CRDI.
I am not sure if this could affect in some way the data shown from the scanner.
Any input would be appreciated.
