I need to stop touching things today because I keep striking out. My Dad passed away a month ago after a battle with cancer and I'm trying to help my Mom with a few things. One of those are some check engine codes on her car. It appears we have the "dreaded P2002 and P0401" as well as P240F. From my research, I believe that means a cracked DPF. Further research indicated that could be covered under warranty but the warranty is 10 years and 126k miles. My Mom's car is a 2012 and I watched it hit 127k yesterday as I was running errands for her.
1st question - did I just miss the warranty
2nd question - should I allow VW to do whatever they were obligated to do in regards to dieselgate? I understand there was a mileage penalty but I don't know if it was generally recommended anyway
3rd - Is a DPF replacement DIY able?
Any other suggestions?
