  1. I found something VERY interesting tonight. In the Workshop Manual - the one the dealers use, not the Owner's Guide (OG) - the instructions for doing the DPF regeneration after the amber warning are pretty much the same, word for word in fact, as they are in the OG. But there's also an extra instruction. The manual advised that you drive for a further 10 minutes to ensure the DPF is properly cleaned. That definitely does NOT appear in the OG. Note this was for the 3.0d, MY2010-2013 XF. There's also a section that tells you that "active regen occurs automatically every 450 miles (adjusted according to driving style)", but a few pages and a couple of years later that was rewritten to read "every 250 miles" .

  2. Gregory My view is that "you get what you pay for.) I suspect it is not so much the cost of painting but the labour involved in removing/refitting bumper and repairing it. Plainly I do not know where you have been for the quote but I imagine cheaper quotes could be obtained, which probably comes back to "you get what you pay for." I would suggest you shop around a bit and then make your decision based upon what you see at the premises you visit for quotes and the prices you are quoted. Do not be affraid to ask to see the work they aare currently doing. Best Wishes and Regards, John
