22 plate Ford kuga 1.5 ecosport diesel. The normal green warning for drive to clear filter came on, but 10 seconds later went red with warning changing to exhaust filter over limit, service now. Have tried to reset warning by driving the car for longer period over 30mph as suggested, but this hasn't worked.  Concerned continuing to drive car will cause damage. It looks like the earliest I can get booked into a ford dealership (for warranty) is end of March, but need to use car everyday and it's the only car in the household. Does anyone have a solution to clear the overloaded exhaust filter?

    This youtube video shows a DIY method to unclog a DPF by forcing the cleaning solution into the DPF through the Pressure sensor outlet pipe

    Might be of help?

    Alternatively, somebody with Forscan can perform a "Static Forced Regen"
