But did I read somewhere that Off Road mode only operates when you have the CDL engaged or low range? If that’s the case in a constant 4wd vehicle doing that sort of country there’s no need to drive with either for the most part (except maybe dunes), so wouldn’t really be of benefit.
Yes
Off road mode works in high or low up to 70kmh
The Getting to Grips video says that only Wading Mode stops DPF regeneration.
This is common. When your revs and exhaust outputs ramp up and down, it is no good for burn offs. Most burn offs are stored for vehicles 60km to 110km from my experience with DPF prone vehicles.

Sure I do understand that it is useful to switch it off in off road mode. I just did not read it anywhere.
Emphasis on my comment re CDL needing to be engaged……
Correct it says wading mode stops DPF
No, because I have a Petrol car, due to Europe banning Diesel in some cities in the upcoming years!
If you look only on CO2 it certainly is. Other factors are sometimes in favour to petrol and sometimes to diesel. You have to define what pollution means to you.
At least you understood. That is exactly why e.g. the green houses in NL use 4% CO2 as fertilizer. No doubt there were or should I better write „are“ a lot of rather unhealthy emissions put in the environment by humans..I figure I’m saving the planet by getting a petrol Grenadier. Plants grow faster with more CO2 and it makes them more drought resistant. That’s my theory and I’m sticking to it.
Diesel bans are about particulate matter (soot) and nitrogen oxides, these being associated with respiratory illnesses.
Petrol more CO2 per km, but diesel more particulates and nitrogen oxides
Isn't DPF+Adblue meant to remove particulates to near zero levels? NItOx I can understand. There is more chance of developing a lung illness from your home's AC than a "clean and maintained" vehicle on the road - my wife works in medical and I'll stand by that fact any day. I am more concerned about those kids that are Vaping 2 feet away!!!
I don’t think it would ever be a problem if it was just one vehicle. It’s a constant stream of vehicles all day every day and the cumulative effect - even if the per vehicle contribution is small. Bearing in mind that in Oz we have nowhere near the population and urban density of the places these regs are emerging from.
Yes it does a good job of it. Diesel with AdBlu I think had lower NOx levels than petrol.
