When Did Audi Start Fitting Dpf

When did they start fitting x types with dpfs and how do you know if it has one fitted.
When did audi start fitting dpf. When it comes to dpfs do the right thing. Ive just put 80 odd thousand miles on a qashqai with a dpf without any woe but it obviously did a fair few regular long and reasonably fast runs to achieve that. Not quite right my 2008 octavia scout 20 tdi pd had a dpf. The current generation of diesel cars with dpf are so clean theyll pass the white handkerchief at the exhaust pipe test.
The first north american vw or audi tdi that got a dpf was the 2006 2008 vw touareg tdi v10. List of cars which dont have dpfs fitted alby back it could maybe be argued that those who would encounter a problem with a dpf perhaps didnt need a diesel in the first place. 2010 the vehicles got adblue systems as well. 09 was the first year of the 2l crd engine with a dpf.
The 2004 touareg tdi had no dpf and there was no 2005 because it wouldnt pass emissions without one. Vw did not have a dpf engine for 07 08 and so they manufactured a ton of 06 tdis to hold them over. I think the 20tdi 140 engine did not have a dpf until it switched from pd to common rail injection. What year did audi start fitting the dpf to the a4 tdi 170.
Hi maybe looking at getting another jag after i sold my s type 3 years ago. I spoke to the audi garage that serviced the car and they tell me it doesnt have the dpf which im very happy to hear. The only thing i will not do is buy one with a dpf fitted as i had no end of problems the one fitted to my s type. Fancying an x type diesel either 20 or 22 not too fussed if the spec and condition is right.
Its worth noting that a lot of car manufacturers began fitting early versions of the dpf well before 2008 this was down to the fact that some larger engine cars and those fitted with automatic gearboxes struggled to meet the earlier euro 4 emissions standards or made the changes early in readiness for eu5 and so you are likely to find the dpf systems fitted to some larger engine cars and 44s manufactured as early as 2004 and in the case of citroens and peugeot their version of. The 170 had it from the start. Spareco are emissions specialists and are happy to share their knowledge and answer any questions you may have regarding dpfs.
