    Question Do Aussie 2.2 Pumas have a "D.P.F."?

    I was reading about a "D.P.F."...Diesel Particulate Filter, which is a device apparently fitted to U.K. Pumas, and which can apparently "clog up" & do serious damage, with short running etc?
    I was just wondering if this device is fitted to Aussie Pumas.
    Cheers, Pickles.

    My 2013 doesn't either, but at the time of ordering, (March this year), the dealer could not confirm that LR wouldn't change the spec without notice.

    Cheers,

    Tim

    I went to look at the current Defender specs on the Aussie official Land Rover website.
    Interesting to note that in Europe the Puma 2.2 is meeting EU5 emissions and to meet that there has to be a DPF installed. The Puma 2.2 in Europe was never offered meeting EU4 emissions, from the start it was EU5 compliant. (The Puma 2.4 is/was EU4 emissions compliant, and had no DPF)
    Now the good news is that the Aussie Puma 2.2 is still showing on your Land Rover website as meeting EU4 emissions, so probably this means no DPF...
    See following link and then click on Performance and Weights at the bottom on the left.
    Defender 4X4 Station Wagon 90 & 110 Wheelbases. 5 or 7 Seats. | Land Rover Australia

    Yes, I did notice that, as I compared specs on the two websites myself. Having said that, the engine photo in the 2013 defender brochure does show a "Milo Tin" just below the exhaust manifold.
    Surely someone would have a contact in JLR to give us a definite answer?
    Cheers, Pickles.
