Told us thats is a common problem with Diesel engines which are not driven long didstances .
Advised us to drive 100 miles each week on a motorway to unclog the filter. !!
Owners should be warned IN ADVANCE that diesel engine cars are nor suitable fro individuals who only drive short distances on a daily basis .
otherwise the car is great
