The DPF light is the curse of modern diesels — especially diesels used for short town journeys. The filter traps soot from the exhaust and burns it off at motorway temperatures. If you never get the chance, the filter clogs, the light comes on, and you've got a £150–£2,500 problem on your hands depending on how long you ignore it.
