Hi all 
the other day i had the DPF warning come up telling me to continue driving and i also noticed that i had a new symbol  that i had never seen before.
the new symbol turned out to be the shift up gear adviser
strange thing is ive never seen it before or after the DPF warning , should it always be there or does it just show up when theres a DPF warning?

Start up issue... only once
Hi all today I drove to widnes stopped the car for a couple of hours then went to start the car and it ran for a second then cut out.... I tried to restart but the starter didn't turn over then after 30seconds it started fine.

The only thing I did was when I started I didnt let the glow plugs light go out I was rushing.

Is this something going wrong or just a one off thanks.

I have a 2013 2.0 cdti 165 thanks all

This problem gets worse over the next seconds until the car runs so rough in idle it stalls.
Restarting the car goes suuper ro
