Yes that's at idle.
From what I can gather the soot calculated and measured both look at this measurement to indicate soot content.
The fact that my injector was leaking would have not done the dpf any good so it's going to have an in car clean and see if that will reduce pressure.
It's already done a regen within 30 miles of having the injector changed so a good clean can't hurt.
Welcome to the rabbit hole of DPF's!
Measured and calculated use two different methods (algorythms) for 'estimating' soot loading. Either can trigger a regen when it gets to a certain threshold. Measured mainly uses the DPF pressure sensor.
My measured soot mass climbs up much faster than calculated, and then when measured get to 24g the calculated zooms up to meet it and a regen starts. This is common behavior when your DPF is getting full of ASH.
In car DPF clean can only effect SOOT - but if there is a soot problem, then there is a cause behind that, sensor/driving style/etc..
If you have an ASH problem on car cleaning won't touch this. Ash is the by-product after a regen of burning all the stored soot in your DPF, and is none-combustible. To clean out any ash - it needs to be back flushed the way it came in, with some mild acid.
Ash is also produced & stored by the combustion of oil (if your car burns a little oil from piston rings or turbo) and fuel (cheaper fuel can produce more ash)
O2 sensor, Injectors, EGR, DPF pressure sensor, Turbo, Piston rings, glow plugs, can all contribute to more frequent regens. You need to evaluate each.
I brought an 3.9mm articulating borescope from Temu and it's been brilliant.
I'm at 160k miles. With my borescope I was able to inspect my turbo (inlet and outlet) for oil and looks perfect, and also inspect my EGR valve and again looks great. I borescoped my cylinders - and can see some carbon around the tops of the cylinders. I get some oil going through my cylinder cover outlet into the inlet, changing my cylinder head cover did help, but I think my blowby is overwhelming the oil separator - so for my case I believe over the years of burning a little oil this has slowly filled my DPF of Ash. I've never had a DPF warning light. Its currently regening every 90-100 miles. It was down to 30-40 miles, but changing my O2 sensor really helped move the needle, as I mentioned previously they only have a finite life. I had all my injectors cleaned and checked on an injector test machine and all were fine - but this did help make my engine feel smoother.
Good luck.
