DPF Clogging From Incomplete Regeneration (Short-Trip/Urban Driving) & P0471 Exhaust/DPF Differential Pressure Sensor Fault

Emissions / Engine · severity: Moderate to High if ignored - a clogged/restricted DPF can trigger limp mode (a sudden, significant power reduction) and, per general South African diesel-DPF cost context (see repair.estimatedRepairCostZAR), can require an increasingly expensive intervention (forced regeneration through to full replacement) the longer it is left unaddressed. · confidence: 55/100 · 4 cited sources

This is everything documented for this issue - no repair-cost estimate or TSB/recall reference was found for it, so there's nothing further behind the R99 report for this specific finding.
