If all is good, check sensor hoses, replace or test the sensor (common problem I hear from Ford man but how to check it?).
?If no DIY and reluctant to see Dr Ford, don't worry unless fuel consumption and/or performance is noticed.
Probably not the DPF.
At least we have something to obsess about, since the engine is bulletproof?
Your regen interval seems high at that speed?

cheers.
Too DIY for me and I think the regen system is doing what it should so i'll stop obsessing, give the mrs her car back and wait for another warning. I need to stop driving while distracted by forscan or I'll have an accident!.
On a side note I did see the regen continue just fine when idling in stop/start traffic. Not sure why it stopped prematurely that first time.
Not all the driving last week was cruising at 100, so maybe regen frequency is OK. My daily commute includes ~20km at 100 and 15km of light/medium traffic.
