Just turned 99398 miles on my 2011 Sportwagen and the Check Engine Light came on. This is the first time I've seen the CEL since I bought the car at 21k miles. The car had the fix done in September 2017.
A few days ago I had to run an errand of 4 miles one way and when i shut it off after the first 4 miles I heard the fans running, so it must have started the regen. I stopped for about 10 min and after coming home 4 miles again, I believe I heard the fans running again. Then I did a 30 min drive and shut it off. Then another 15 min drive, stop 15 min and 15 min drive back. No CEL at that time that I can recall. This morning I turned the key on a few times to pair a new phone to the car and when I started the car I noticed the CEL.
What do you guys think? Should I try a longer drive to see if it would do a regen successfully and turn the CEL off? I would hate to drive the 70 miles one way to the dealer only to find that the thing fixed itself by the time I got there. I attached some info below from VCDS related to the DPF.
Thanks.
