BiTdi issue - DPF/Actuator?

Featured Replies

My A6 biTdi went into limp mode the other day, with no warning, had been running fine.  When I got it on VCDS it came up as Turbo 1 actuator. I cleared codes and it was OK for a bit but smelt a little smokey. ran codes again and came up with DPF fault.

Current codes are:

Any ideas? Is DPF screwed or did actuator issue trigger a fault with DPF? I have tried to do a regen of DPF but VCDS aborts it.

Also, anyone recommend an Audi specialist in Coventry/Midlands?

Thanks
