DPF problems almost new |

Hello all, recently I got some error messages on my 1.3 Astra but before I go to a specialist I would like to see if is something that I can do by myself
So, a couple of days ago I got "Service Vehicle Soon" message before starting the engine. I kinda think that the problem might be related with the DPF since in the last 3 weeks I've used the car only for a couple of miles to reach my work place. I've moved very close to work but since I don't have a parking permit yet, I need to move my car from the place I live during the day
Yesterday I had to do some work 100 miles away from work and I decided to get my car in order to clean the DPF, after 20 miles I got the message, "DPF Cleaning, Continue Driving", after another 20/30 miles the message change to "DPF is Full, Continued Driving Mandatory. I was on the highway, so I continued for another 60 miles until I've reach my destination but nothing, the message didn't go away. On my way back, same thing, 100 miles but no cleaning. The message comes on as soon I turn on the keys, also "Service Vehicle Soon"
The filter is brand new, only 3000 miles made so far...
Arrived home, I've connected the computer and I got this error messages:
P2458-57 Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Regeneration Time - <Unknown status byte>
P2453-56 Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Differential Pressure Sensor Circuit - Too Many Transitions
P0192-5A Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Low Voltage - Not Plausible
Is there anything I can do by myself before hearing an expert?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Ride height |

Hi, i am new here, so forgive if this has been covered, i can not see very much on it.
I have GTC SRi 2.0 cdti 2012 and i am going to replace springs with 30 mm lowered all around.
I read that the ride height for an Astra J is 112 mm.
Where exactly is this measurement taken from?
I measured 160 mm from the bottom of the rubber under the front bumper to the ground.
A typical kerb is about 125 mm, so it doesn't give much space.
Any input appreciated
Pat.

Software for 1.6T |

Hey Forum,
I've been into modding for most of my life but more the old school way of NA (expensive way of going slow) and also turbo'ing cars that weren't turbo from factory. More recently I've been playing around with more modern cars where software and bolton's make great gains.
After reading up on the 1.6T is seems it isn't the strongest of motor & gearbox combo's but should handle stg1 sw with relative ease. I'm not that familiar with the UK market so have done allot of googling. I've had 2 options that I'd like to ask for feedback and/or advice.
1) Celtic Tuning - I've always used Celtic as a benchmark for many cars and trust their dealer network. My only concern is off the shelf maps.
2) Performance centre - They run a full diagnostic and do a road map tune to check all the parameters are good. Only issue is they are based 4.5 hours away although I can have it done by another tuning company through their guidance.
Car currently only has the back box removed (bought like this) and I don't intend to go wild or any further with this setup. Keen to hear your thoughts.
Regards,

Hi guys.
Is there anyway to find all the option codes (POCs) that a car has and what each of them mean?
Thanks.
