I have noticed the soot problem with the ED35....My brother in law bought a GTD just after me and he doesn't have any soot on the exhaust..he must be a petrol prob... :angry:
it is but I would rather have sooty pipes than dpf problems because of the way I use the car.

I agree, I dread to think the problems dpf's will cause when these cars are a few years old!!
