This looks like the situation where your diesel has tried multiple times to complete an Active Regen (AR) unsuccessfully and this time it actually flashes up on the dash to let you know this is the last time it's going to try to complete before it will require you to go to a dealership to force an AR.Hello,
First regen with indication on the dash was on 19-Dec at 1479 km (= 919 miles).
Yesterday 25-Dec the 2nd regen, at 1678 km. The dash says "weiterfahren" (= continue driving), when i had to stop at a red light a notification bell sound was given by the car.
The longest trips in this week were 40 km or 25 km one way, the remaining were mostly short trips < 5 km.
My last Diesel with AdBlue system was a new Audi A5, in 3 years and 75k km it did only one regen with indication in the dash.
This is what happens with frequent short trips, I experience this also as I make many short trips that does not allow the DPF to get hot enough to passively regen some of the soot away.
If you pay attention to your fuel mileage you might notice a decrease if there have been multiple (failed) attempts to perform an AR as diesel is injected into the DPF during an AR to increase the temperature to fully burn off the soot collected.
