No DPF, am I correct?
Morning all,
Ive been doing some searches this morning, I need to blank off the EGR on my 2007 D3, ordered the bits,
My VIN number SALLAAA137A441177
Would I be right to think that she doesn't have a DPF?
Also, if I did have one it would be under where the passenger is?
Many thanks

But you will need a software patch for the EGRs

So it does have a DPF? Or have I misunderstood? 🧐

I think Del (DSL) is correct.
If, however, you blank off the EGRs on a 2007 it puts the Engine Management Fault light on the dashboard. To stop this happening you need a software patch.

It does happen, usually on a Tuesday.
I do remember a friend with a Luxembourgish D3 having real DPF issues on an off-roading day in Snowdonia, all that cold running completely stuffed it up. Was glad we didn’t have them.

Is that on the 6th Tuesday in the month ? I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!
