Hope this little lot clears this up.....
If it has DPF cluster informs you of oil filter change (or 2 years) or without DPF 2 years.Remember if the oil filter is changer the ECU must be informed of this change by using examiner.
As a guideline if degredation index is 25% or less (remember counter counts down) at time of service you change the oil anyway (which I reckon 99% of cars will be except taxis,maybe delivery drivers etc).
Most diesels will have this soon I reckon with euro 5 emission laws etc.

There's no actual sensor in the sump for DPF. It's all based around how many times the particulate filter in the exhaust has been purged by the injection system carrying out a regeneration procedure.
Over time the excess fuel collects in the engine oil and 'degrades' it, hence why there's a light to say you need an oil change (before the oil thins out and risks damage).
