2011 S60 1.6 Drive DPF

DB85 · Mar 2nd, 2012, 16:28

I'm hoping some knowledgeable soul on these forums might be able to help me. I'm considering purchasing a used 1 year oldish S60 1.6 Drive.

Does anyone know if this model uses one of the additives (Eolys?) or not for the DPF system? I couldn't see any mention of it in the car manual that Volvo provide online, yet one of their other webpages suggests that the 1.6 units use it - and therefore at some point the DPF unit would need to be replaced? I'm lead to believe that the DPF units that don't rely on the additive won't need to be replaced. Just trying to make sure I go into this car purchase with my eyes wide open to any hidden future costs.

Many thanks

DPF'ed and eolys as far as i know with replacement at 75K, however, i must admit looking under our D2 with the 1.6D that i could not find the dosing tank for the eolys.
