It's not a major inconvenience. Despite the extra 300-500rpm at idle...I don't think you would really need to ride the clutch any more than necessary. I've towed heavy loads and it's never effected anything.

To me the whole thing seems like a load of BS! You have this filter that is stopping the soot from going out the exhaust then when it gets a little blocked the computer pumps more fuel into the engine to get the temps up to burn it out. Where does it end up at the end of the burn? Out the bloody exhaust! Not to mention pushing the extra fuel into the engine will only create more soot anyway so it probably put more in than it burns! Sounds like BS to me!

I then get to 2400kms and it's got the same symptoms again, it's going back on Monday but will have another 500km on it to get it to them. I live in the kimberleys and I work the hilux reasonably hard and not for short drives. It started doing this again when I pulled up home in the driveway after pulling the tradey trailer 130kms at 100-110kmh.
Anyone else having any issues like this?
