Diesel Particulate Filter clogging in HiLux, Prado and Fortuner?

The word on the street is that there are problems with the DPF burn on the 2.8-litre diesel in the new HiLux, Prado and Fortuner. I understand that they are being recalled and the filters replaced. Have you heard of any issues, or are you able to get any clarity from Toyota?

There are quite a few reports of problems with the dpf clogging on the latest 2.8-litre diesel, but a Toyota spokesman told us there is currently no service campaign or recall related to the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) on any of the three vehicles you reference.
