Citroen C8 Diesel Particulate Filter DPF (2002-2014)

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) in your Citroën C8 is designed to trap harmful soot particles from the exhaust gases, helping to reduce pollution. It operates on two key principles: filtration, which captures these particles, and regeneration, an automatic self-cleaning phase that burns off accumulated residues to keep the filter effective.

To allow efficient regeneration of your Citroën C8 DPF, it is recommended to drive the vehicle at over 3500 rpm for at least 10 minutes. This helps the filter burn off particulates. If regeneration fails, technical service may be required to prevent blockage.

The Citroën C8 DPF is available for several diesel engine models, including:

• Citroën C8 2.0 HDi
• Citroën C8 2.2 HDi (EA and EB versions)

Always ensure you check your vehicle model and engine type to find the correct DPF reference.

DPF maintenance or replacement intervals generally range between 80,000 and 180,000 km, depending on vehicle use and the specific part. Proper functioning is essential to avoid engine issues related to particulate filter blockage.

• Regular monitoring of warning messages and engine performance is advised
• If failures occur, consult a professional for diagnosis and possible replacement

Guides and tutorials are available to assist with replacement, though professional service is recommended for optimal results.

If your Citroën C8 shows a warning or error related to the diesel particulate filter, such as a "depollution system fault" or "diesel additive minimum level" message, it usually indicates a blockage or regeneration issue requiring attention.

• Attempt regeneration by driving at higher revs (>3500 rpm) for over 10 minutes
• If the message persists, seek a professional diagnosis to avoid engine limp mode or damage
• Replacement of the DPF may be required if cleaning does not resolve the problem
