DPF pressure sensor with error 2,250,0

[cmsmith101]

Golf Mk6 2.0 TDI 2009 with 36k miles. Exhaust warning light comes on (little yellow engine symbol), but can be cancelled with appropriate reader, then comes on again after no particular mileage. Fault reader indicates error code 2,250,0.

In my case the problem was a faulty sensor which measures the pressure difference across the DPF. Replacement of this, cost £60 from Leeds VW solved the problem and job took about 25 mins. Needs a suitable torx bit and connecting tubes may need some force to get off but otherwise simple.

Welcome to VWAF.

Common fault on DPF equipped models, always prone to go!
