In today's video, see how to proceed when the regeneration warning light activates in the Opel Corsa D. This operation is necessary for modern diesel engines equipped with a diesel particulate filter that signals the need for regeneration when saturated.

To perform the regeneration, go to an area where you can maintain a constant speed for a few miles (for example, a dual carriageway), then keep your vehicle at around 3,500 rpm and wait for the warning light to turn off. Once this is done, you can switch off your Opel Corsa.
