Usually the Post injection 3 is used to increase the DPF temperature during regeneration process, but I can't exclute it's used also for other process, for example to perform the little NOx regeneration. The VAG engines list is enormous, it's difficult to know all the ECU behavior. I wouldn't mind about it if you don't see errors in the ECU log.

Oil ash seems ok, consider that the DPF expected life is about between 250.000 or 300.000 Km, so your DPF health is very good, it should reach the end of its life after 300.000 km that is a very good performance.
