I've had my low DPF fluid warning on today, Not bad as it's over 130k miles. Went to citroen to get some more, and they asked why type I need. I was kind of hoping they'd tell me since they are citroen, but it seems they can only tell by the colour of connector on the pipes. After looking this evening, it seems mine has a blue band on the connector. Only by looking in since the wind shield is hold on by 10mm nuts on threads that look very rusty! The refill looks simple but confusing: The highlighted pipe (blue one), plugs into the new tub of fluid, and an empty bottle goes to the tank. Does that blue pipe feed back into the tank somehow? |

All done, refilled without spilling a drop. Just need to reset the ecu counter for it. With the help of youtube, that pipe arrangement is looped back to the box, and the pipe on the box acts as a full indicator, overflows when it's full. Supposed to be 1.3l, box has 1.4l printed on it, and it took a little bit more than that - though hard to get an exact value from what's left in the pipes, and in the overflow bottle. Also got a full service, and wondered how many £'s went to wast changing the fuel filter. Last part is the air filter, but the screes on the airbox have gone very rusty, so will need new screws since getting them will be ok, but not putting them back in. |

What a faff that was, it took longer to get diagbox installed and running, and then guessing where the reset the additive is, than it did to put the additive in. Anyway back to 100%, 1.4 litres listed, not sure why you also need to reset the pump and pipe replacement part too. |
