Default Dpf light flashing and loss of power

Hey. My dpf light has started flashing and have lost some power. I've had an oil and filter change but hasn't made a difference. Anyone got any info on how to solve this issue??? Thanks in advance.

I would suggest if the car is a diesel that the particulate filter would need changing and that is in place of a cat converter in the exhaust (also can be expensive i believe) if i recall correctly as i have not had a lot to do with modern diesels that have particulate filters

What vehicle do you have?

Has the "oil data" been reset when serviced?

Take it to Mazda for a code check. Might need a forced regen of the DPF.
