Why is my Mazda DPF light coming back on?
That’s all. HOWEVER……if this light comes back on after a reset, get it checked by a mechanic because a fault can occur where the lubrication oil is flooded with diesel (from the DPF regeneration system). This will INCREASE the oil level in the engine and can be fatal to the engine.
When did Mazda 6 TS2 2.0D come out?
I have a new shape Mazda 6 TS2 2.0d, which I bought new in late March 2008. It has done about 10,000 miles in that time, and in mid December the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) light came on. I read the handbook which said it needed a long high speed run to clear the filter.
Why did my Mazda 6 go into limp mode?
Yet on Sunday, the light suddenly came on but flashing and the ‘check engine’ light also came on, and the car had gone into ‘limp mode’ (which means I have no turbo) so it has gone to the garage, where they say it needs an oil change, filter change and the DPF system regenerated (at a cost of £250+).
Is there a problem with the Mazda 6 DPF?
Yours has the same engine (albeit detuned to make it less powerful but lower emitting)… the true new engine is out soon and is the 2.2 litre with a totally new/improved DPF system. I’ve been told by the dealer that there is ‘no problem with the DPF on [my] car’ and therefore I have to pay for the oil & filter change and regen of the system.

What’s the DPF light flashing on a Mazda?
But. I was directed to this video. Seems ridiculous to assume that this short procedure could make any difference.After all, as the manual says, the DPF light flashing indicates that the DPF requires regeneration by driving for 10-15 minutes at a specified high level of revs to burn off the accumulated particulate.
Is there a DPF fault on the Mazda 6?
The Mazda DPF fault that wasn’t. The Mazda DPF fault that wasn’t. Regular readers may recall my painful experience earlier this year with a DPF failure on our Mazda 6.
