Oil not suitable for DPF.

Can't say I'm massively impressed, we have three at work.
Two have thrown up faults rendering them un-drivable within 10k of new, this ones used quite a bit of oil for a new engine IMO, over a litre.
Lack of power compared to other 4wds due to small engine with two turbos to compensate. Is improving with distance driven, but pretty pants needing to rev the nads off it to get anywhere.
Now we have to use special VW oil and will have to keep a bottle in the cab to check it every day since they will do a couple of thousand Kay's a week.... Better hope it doesn't break down too far from a major town, since nobody will be able to work on it apart from VW, computer says no!
