I'm thinking about getting Carly. Would be nice to have anyway. I also did some reading about Lucas Diesel Deep Clean. Anyone try this?

Is dpf warning able to be reset with ICarly?
I can clear it but it comes back with next startup/drive.

If you are not getting DPF specific faults - then this can be reset (marking DPF as replaced) using ISTA or a Tool32 job.
Make sure your engine thermostat has been replaced and the engine is running up to full temp. There are many other threads on this.

Well I just got my first iDrive warning this morning. Car's running fine, but right at 250,000 KM (156,000 miles).

Will look around for information on ISTA and Tool32 - the links in the thread for iCarly aren't very good for some reason.

Any reports of success would be appreciated!
