Ash mass and mileage - we need your values

Translated on 03-07-2026, 15:19.

I'm interested in knowing what values you have for the two data points: ash mass (or ash volume) and total mileage of the car.

Perhaps a brief mention of the motorization / the car.

What is it for? To estimate the condition of the diesel particulate filter based on the vehicle's mileage.

With me:
Golf V, Model 2008 - 2.0 TDI 140PS, DSG - 60.000km - 18g

Audi A4 B7 Model 2007 - 2.0 TDI 8V 140hp - 190,000km - 7g (maximum 60g)
The filter was cleaned at 180,000 km. The value was 59g.

Hello Martin,

has already been done, but only because I finally decided to buy the VCDS program (in November 2012).

The car was still at the

for a service in September, without any indication of a full DPF

There's nothing more to say about that....

Hello, I went to the friendly Skoda dealer today, and the service manager connected the VCDS

He said that it's better and much faster than the Vag tester.

Now, I wanted to be able to read the mass of the ash. My car no longer has a mileage counter. Car: Skoda Octavia 8/12 CFHC
In the list of extended MBWs, we didn't find it.
Is there now another term for it?

Search for "Particle Filter"

"Older" engines measure ash level in grams, while "newer" engines measure it in liters.
0.02l corresponds to 20ml, for this engine in the A3, 175ml are allowed. After that, the DPF must be cleaned or replaced.

Please enter the values for assessing the level here.
