Hi,
Is there a fuse or connector to be pulled in order to deactivate this feature?
Tks
Hi Bill, Before I took delivery of my MY18 DS, I found a thread on this site that maintained that by disconnecting a plug under the battery cover on the left (from the front) this would disable this irritating function. So I did it on day one and all has been blissful.
Two years later I have been getting an intermittent 'amber engine' light on the dash panel and when I took the vehicle in for a check, among other things they discovered the disconnected plug, and then blamed my warning light on my fiddling with the wiring. They maintain that when disconnected the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve does not work properly, and hence the warning light.
I find this hard to believe since many of us drive with the system disabled through the Auto Stop/start switch, and no warning light.
Anyway after 'fixing' the problem, I still get the light, so now I am going to disconnect again.
I suspect the warning is from the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) which is not flushing properly, but the dealer is at a loss.
So, disconnect the plug, but be mindful of warranty and any other issue.
