    I though all signum and estates had dpf...

    The other way to tell is the plate on the drivers door but I can't remember which code is dpf and which ain't....

    If it says 1.20 on the plate then you don't have dpf if it says 0.50 then you do!

    And I believe the 120hp codes are 1.30 haven't got dpf and I assume 0.60 and you have?

    I'm just remembering of the top of my head from when I checked mine! Although I wouldn't take a Haynes manual as gospel lol there usually awful!

    The code on the drivers door plate should work though :-)

    I just thought all signums, estates and autos had dpf but the others usually don't

    Are you referring to the precat or the main cat which your de-catting? Perhaps a link to the part you have purchased?

    That's the pre cat then :-) the second cat will be in the middle section underneath your car! I think for best results you need to lose both!

    Personally I'd probably get the dpf out as well because they seem to be ticking time bombs waiting for a failure
