What exactly is a “regen” with regard to my 2012 Passat SEL TDI?
Someone one on this forum said bc my engine did a regen bc both fans were run full blast and the engine seemed really hot under the hood although my temp gauge was dead on. I also experienced slight smoke and oil smell but I have no leaks under the car nor any I can see in the engine bay. Oil level perfect too.
Car runs perfectly with 132K on the clock. I purchased with 130K, so I’ve not put many miles on it. Mostly town driving.
Should I be concerned bc a forum member said this is completely normal? Also, I’m second owner and first owner had EVERY service required performed by a VW dealer.
Thanks.
