That is a particulate filter error code. Could be a faulty sensor or an issue with the Diesel Particulate Filter DPF.

You need to get it looked at ASAP, if the DPF blocks you are looking at a very hefty repair bill.

With a fault code, it will not regenerate and block, so needs the fault clearing and ideally a manual regeneration via Tech2 diagnostic tool.
