Here are some DPF stats for 0-50,000Km on my 2018 GXL Prado:
ECU firmware updated early 2019.
Kerb Mass ex driver approx 2,700Kg.
Accessories include GVM Upgrade, Bull-bar, Winch, Twin Wheel Carrier, Drawer System, UHF, Spot Lights, Dual Battery, Tools etc.
Mileage Breakdown:
a. ~18,000Kms on the open highway (100-110Kms/hr),.
b. ~3,500Kms tracks, sand dunes, corrugations, mountains etc
c. The rest city driving.
DPF regens at highway speeds (post ECU update):
Ave Kms to complete a regen = 30+Kms
Ave Kms between regen = ~150Kms
Regens often ended at 4% and some at 0%
DPF regens for city driving:
Kms to complete a full regen = less than 20Kms
Kms between regens = 250-300Km
Regens on remote tracks (5-10-20Kms/hr):
Kms to complete a full regen = 2-5Kms
General:
a . Economy1 = 8.5 Ltrs/100Km, city driving
b . Economy2 = 12-13 Ltrs/100Km, highway driving (Wt ~3,050Kg max)
c. Economy3 = 8.5 Ltrs/100Km, mixed driving, wheels Dunlop AT20, 265/65 R17 on Factory Alloy Rims
d. Economy4 = 9.7 Ltrs/100Km, mixed driving, wheels Toyo ATII, 265/70 R17 Steel Rims
Notes:
a. trips less than 5-8Km won't produce the conditions for the DPF to start let alone complete burn. This is how long it taken to warm the system up before a regen will start, or resume after interruption.
b. 5 DPF burns during 5-10-20Km/hr grinds over sand dunes and remote tracks.
c. the 2019 ECU update significantly reduced the Kms between regens at highway speeds, and significantly reduced the time to complete a regen.
d. the DPF burn quits at 8% saturation, but the high level of residual heat energy carries the burn to 6%, and sometimes 4% and occasionally all the way to 0%.
Finally got the DPF Manual button Custom Mode enabled. I can pull over before driving over miles of tinder dry grass and manually initiate a burn whenever the DPF level is over 28%. And it works,
