Anyone know what happens if the DPF total fills up and I'd assume would be clogged?
Did your shop try to clean it in situ or remove it and clean it? I can't believe in situ would be as effective.

There is a DPF counter in the DDE that "expires" the DPF. It can be reset after a cleaning.

I'm surprised the DPF itself is not covered under one of the 120,000 mile emissions warranties. Definitely file a case with NHTSA regarding it. Enough cases and BMW will be forced to extend the warranty on them or issue a recall. You will be entitled to a refund of this repair should either of those 2 things occur.
