[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 607339, member: 3960"] My son warned me of these DPF problems when I was considering replacing our bus. He said the vehicles running Add Blue were a better option. It brings me back to the 70's and 80's when the world went mad on emission systems on vehicles. We got things like exhaust gas recirculation, how many V6 Nissan diesels did that blow up? My 1971 Chrysler Galant used to do 44 mpg if driven quietly. Later models with pollution reducing devices fitted were lucky to achieve 35 mpg. Anyway these things are designed for more over populated areas and not needed in Australia. The emission tests are done while the DPF is collecting the high pollutants and not when the big burn-off is done every so often sending a sooty cloud over all following vehicles. It must take somebody really smart to work out how you can use more fuel for less pollution :argh: [/QUOTE]
