DPF - What Year Did They Start

[DavePalmer]

Hi,

Does anyone know what year the DPFs were introduced in our cars? I've been told by two different mechanics two different things. One says my car has one, one says I don't. I don't know who to believe.

Thanks

Late 2008. If you send me your reg privately I'll confirm what you've got

You have a 7th Gen Accord (according to your avatar)
The 7th gen spanned from 2003 -2007 (although some 7th Gens made it into 2008 Reg form)

The 7th Gen Accord did not feature a DPF, only an EGR valve.

The DPF came later on the 8th Gen Accord 2008- onwards

Hope this helps.
