I’m presuming it’s just the high idling and the increased engine noise you are worried about? I have a VW Polo 1.6 TDI which will raise the rpm and sound like a 20 year old tractor when it does a DPF regeneration. Does this every 200 miles or so

I dont think you can hear it in the video but theres a high pitched noise when it goes above 1200rpm

Is it brand new? Or is that 225 Miles just the trip meter? Good luck...! I’m about to ditch my VW Diesel, it’s regenerating the DPF far too often and moving to town soon so commute is literally 2 miles.!

Must be something to do with the service then... has it been leaking oil? Have you checked the dip stick?
