No DPF in my 2.2 either. i was lead to believe that the DPF is a European thing only, to meet their emission laws.

When was your 2.2 delivered?
My 2.2 delivered in Feb2012 has a DPF

grappler, where is the dpf located in the exhaust system? i haven't seen one as yet.
can you post a pic?
thanks,


jc

I was told prior to delivery the 2.2 would come with a DPF

I have just tried to confirm with Land Rover dealer whether or not a DPF is fitted to my 2.2.
They were quite vague and couldnt tell from the VIN

The only advice was a DPF would have 4 sensors attached in the vicinity of the cat converter. Ive just looked and there are no sensors or leads in that area.
This along with the no DPF icon on the dash and doesnt appear during prestart bulb test, leads me to believe a DPF is not fitted?

I hope this the case as oil changes will be cheaper!

mmmm, i asked because as yet i haven't seen any 2012 2.2 pumas with a dpf fitted, so including your scenario i would say that none are fitted for the aust market, yet:)

thanks,

jc

hope they never do if it's any thing like the system in isuzu trucks. unit using pto all day on idle caused a lot of trouble sitting on side of road defusing its particles for twenty minutes every second day, a pain on the non bleached orifice.

sounds to me dockstada like we finally got to the right stuff. C1 prof. thanks

Got the recommended oil which has been on order for a while.
This one ticks all the boxes for non DPF 2.2 Puma. Will be good for intermediate services without voiding warranty issues.

Pretty costly at $380 for 20ltrs, but that included freight.

This is suitable for the Puma 2.4.
