Interesting thread! Does anyone know if the Euro4 D5 needs this also?

I don’t believe so as this has a dry DPF. The 1.6d is the 4 cylinder Peugeot unit which has a small tank for an additive that is used to help the DPF generate. During re generation the additive leaves an ash residue which in time clogs the DPF.

A fundamentally flawed system with a DPF a with a service life of approx 75k.

If your struggling with loss of power or reduced MPG try a MAF Clean. You could get advice on a DPF Clean, but still running at about 72mpg combined now on my little 1.6 with plenty of torque.
