    Changed oil with the wrong specification on a 2.0 TDI

    We have hard emission regulations here in Sweden to. At the yearly car inspection they check for catalyzer and DPF visually and by doing a OBD scan. Of course its possible to do a DPF delete by reprogramming the ecu so it doesent throw any fault codes if you really want to spend money on that.

    Chainsaws Echo vs. Husqvarna
