my first regen (after changing stats) lasted ages and absolutley stunk. I've only had one more since and it only lasted about 5 minutes.
interesting point on paying for the forced regen, another "reputable" indy BMW specialist garage were quoting me £150 for the forced regeneration... that's when I decided to take the car elsewhere.

Does this mean the DPF will regenerate once the correct engine parameters are met even if the DPF warning light flashes up on the iDrive system? From reading previous threads on this form, the general consensus was that it would not!
