Hi all,

This is a thread just for info really as I think there is a significant issue with the 190 TDI Ultra engine from googling.

My A6 Avant engine management light came on a few weeks ago, fault code P2002 Diesel Particulate Filter Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 1 was logged.

Local indie VW/Audi garage went for first port of call with a DPF pressure sensor replacement - didn't fix the problem.

Today they have removed the EGR and just look at it... Looks like hardened Adblue deposit

Car has 104k on the clock, spends 90% of the time cruising at 70mph on the motorway - do we collectively think there is anyway to prevent this, or is it going to be an expensive (looking at £1k at an indie) replacement every 100k miles?!

Cheers,
Jon

thats the egr cooler not the valve...

I bet the adblue pump is failing
 
Apologies I meant the EGR cooler.

A quick google suggests a very common issue.
