This is an interesting if slightly worrying thread. Now that I have my MY Sept 2015 GXL back on the road after a six month lay up I have been monitoring the DPF thanks to ExNissan posting how to read the DPF% on torque pro.
As posted earlier by Cuda you can see the increase in 2% increments until 100% then a burn takes place with temperatures up to 750C with the % going down again until 6% when it stops.
I haven't noticed any problems (yet) although it has seemed to do a regen quite frequently. I only notice as the stationary revs raise to 1200 rpm
I haven't had any updates but am due for a service (see my other thread moaning about it) and I have nothing shown in "my garage" part of the toy motor website. I will ring the servicing dealer to hear what they have to say but possibly this update does not apply to a manual?
Obviously I can select 6th gear at whatever speed I want, and as far as my brief monitoring with torque pro suggests that the burn temperature is high enough already.
There is a lot of info about DPF on the net and the temperature needed for a burn appears to be over 600C. I have noticed that my highest temperature was recorded stationary at 1200 rpm it was less while driving.
Lastly I would question how anyone would know unless you are monitoring the exhaust temperature etc that a burn was taking place during normal driving. The only clue I had was the increased idle speed when stationary.
