Re: [Multipla owners] Humidity Dies Filter

Hi
It is supposed to be telling you  that you have water in your diesel filter.
This can be drained by using the drain tap at the bottom of the filter,
or you can replace the filter. This is supposed to get rid of the error message.
Mostly you will get this warning because it just does, if you are having no
problems in the performance dept. I would just ignore it.
I tried getting rid of the warning by changing the fuel filter, but it still
insists on giving the warning frequently, mostly on warm starts.

Hi
new on here and a new Multipla owner - bought 2003 FLX 70k miles.
Sometimes - on start up - we get a warning 'Humidity Dies Filter - contact garage', doesn't seem to affect the car's performance. What is it? How do I fix it? Or is it a trip to the garage and an emptying of the wallet?

No, it's a common software fault. Try turning on the ignition , pause for a few secs , then start her up and you probably won't get the message. If you start...
