Mitsubishi Lancer Diesel Particulate Filter DPF 8 (Viii) (2007-2017)

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) for the Mitsubishi Lancer VIII (2007-2016) is an emission control device fitted on diesel engine versions, specifically the 2.0 DI-D 140 HP engine (codes BKD or CX8A). Its main function is to filter fine soot particles from the exhaust gases to meet Euro 4 emission standards, ensuring cleaner exhaust emissions and reduced environmental impact.

The DPF is compatible with the following Mitsubishi Lancer vehicle models and years :

• Mitsubishi Lancer VIII Saloon (CY/Z/A) produced up to 06/2010 with DPF designed for Euro 4 diesels.
• Mitsubishi Lancer EX VIII Sport 2.0 DI-D (CX8A) from 2008/08 to 2010/06.
• Mitsubishi Lancer VIII (2007-2016) with original equipment (OE) certified DPF units.

It is important to verify the model and engine code when searching for the correct DPF filter.

The main characteristics of this DPF unit include :

• Material: Silicon Carbide (SiC) or Cordierite ceramic substrate
• Weight: approximately 4.8 kg
• Length: 840 mm
• Emission standard: Euro 4 (D4) compliant
• Type: EEC-certified DPF, available with or without integrated catalytic converter
• Original Equipment (OE) reference: 1583A028

The DPF is manufactured in high-quality stainless steel and designed to ensure optimal filtration of diesel soot.

For purchasing original and premium-quality diesel particulate filters for the Mitsubishi Lancer VIII in the UK, look for suppliers that offer :

• OE certified DPF units with proven performance and durability
• Material made of stainless steel INOX 409 with high-grade monoliths
• Product warranty (typically 3 years or up to 100,000 km usage)
• Fast and reliable delivery options with stock availability and express shipping

Always verify part compatibility by engine code (BKD or CX8A) or OE reference 1583A028 before purchasing.

The DPF operates by trapping and filtering fine soot particles from diesel exhaust gases, significantly reducing harmful emissions released into the atmosphere. This supports compliance with Euro 4 emission standards and contributes to cleaner air.

• Maintaining a clean DPF helps optimise fuel consumption and maintains engine performance.
• A properly functioning DPF prevents issues caused by soot accumulation, such as increased pressure and potential damage to the exhaust system.

Using a high-quality DPF ensures durability, efficient soot filtration, and can even improve vehicle power output in some cases.

The DPF requires regular monitoring to avoid blockages caused by soot build-up. Key points include :

Recommended checks :

• Monitor exhaust pressure and regeneration cycles as advised in the vehicle’s service manual.
• Perform cleaning or professional diagnostics when warning lights indicate DPF issues.

Replacement is advised when regeneration is no longer effective or if the DPF is physically damaged. Follow manufacturer or specialist advice on replacement intervals based on driving conditions and vehicle use.

To ensure exact fitment and compatibility, verify the following details before ordering :

• Vehicle model and production year (e.g., Saloon CY/Z/A or Sport CX8A)
• Engine code (commonly BKD or CX8A for the 2.0 DI-D diesel engine)
• OE reference number, especially 1583A028 for most Mitsubishi Lancer VIII DPFs

Compatibility can often be confirmed via Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) or consulting technical support at the supplier or manufacturer level.

When ordering a DPF unit, consider these important points :

• Ensure the supplier offers fast and tracked delivery options, with clear stock status.
• Check warranty terms, typically 3 years for Krosfou DPFs, which reflect product quality and reliability.
• Confirm the product is new and not reconditioned or refurbished to guarantee performance and compliance.
• Keep in mind that installation requires correct fitting and condition checks of complementary exhaust components such as catalytic converters.

Reliable shipping and factory-direct sourcing help you get the best quality DPF at a competitive price with guaranteed delivery times.
