V40 D2 DPF/DPF fluid

[N11EYA]

Good morning,

I recently bought a V40 D2 2015 R-Design & have a couple of questions you may be able to help me with.

I found an old post elsewhere that these have a sealed "DPF fluid" tank that needs topping up every 36k miles & the DPF replaced every 75k miles.

Firstly, is this true & if so what are likely costs & are these jobs DIY able?

If so can anyone give me a quick run down on the procedure.

That was abolished in about 12 years ago☺

The eloys additive system used on early generation 1,6D All D2 are a much higher quality without the additive top up . 👍

Perfect, many thanks for that, obviously the post I saw was from the earlier car then, I did wonder why I hadn't heard of it before.
