Does the 2022 Tiguan's particulate filter still get clogged?

[JohnFitz]

2022 Tiguan's particulate filter still gets clogged. The official has not addressed the issue of particulate filter clogging in the Tiguan L. Solutions provided by 4S dealerships: Drive more on highways to keep the engine under high load, increasing exhaust temperature to oxidize and clean the internal particulate filter; shift the vehicle to neutral and rev the engine to 3000-4000 RPM to raise exhaust temperature for particulate filter regeneration; avoid short-distance driving and traffic congestion to prevent particulate filter clogging. Effects of particulate filter clogging: Some models may automatically reduce engine power output if particulate filter clogging is detected; clogged particulate filters increase exhaust resistance, weakening vehicle power and forcing drivers to accelerate harder at higher RPMs, leading to increased fuel consumption.
