Default Re: Diesel Particulate Filter Problems

Almost 11 years down the track and over 202,000kms, our Peugeot 307 2.0HDi is still running fine without any DFP/FAP problems. Haven't even needed to top up the additive yet either which is good as it can be expensive.
We did have a fault come up early on in it's life, depollution system faulty. It turned out to be an EGR sensor which was replaced under warranty. Apart from that, no troubles with the DFP/FAP that is fitted.
We do live out in the country an hour from Adelaide, so the car does get a regular long run, so that's probably why we don't have any issues with it. Our mechanic has said to me in the past that he's seen a few cars in his shop with DFP problems due to only being driven around town doing short drives.

We were never told anything about the DFP when we purchased the car either.
