I agree, i think it's about 100kph... If you do any more like 120kph I think (but not certain yet) that you'll generate more DP than normal engine heat can get rid off, hence you'll still need the DPF burn to clean that out.

Drove for half an hour in 4th gear as told by the dealer for 110-120km/h.
At least my fuelconsumption went from 12.3 to 0.9.

The other way is with a diagnostic tool and make it do a burn off.
