Problem solved...

Apparently i had cut the engine during the normal cycle, of cleaning the particle filter...

Funny that the engine light came on because of that.....

Oh btw....engine light came off by it self a few hours of driving..Just droped by Chevy to have the codes explained.

Yes, this problem happened to a lot of friends of French forum www.forum-auto.com...
You need to drive 25 min at 2000 rpm to clean your filter, but it is hard in winter to drive at 2000rpm during 25 min !!!!
Some time also happen to people driving only in city...

Not to confuse others...

You ONLY need to drive with rpm's at least at 2000, when the yellow particle ikon is flashing..(very intensive cleaning)

During normal cleaning of the filter you only notice it happening, if you happen to look at the fuel consumption gauge... it rockets up because of alle the diesel sprayed to clean the filter :stirpot: (my engyne light came on because og break during this operation...)
