When did Lexus fit a DPF to the IS 220d?
I am considering replacing my 140,000 mile Vauxhall Omega V6 with a Lexus IS. Can you tell me when Lexus first fitted a DPF to the IS 220d?

We've got November 2008: Carbon dioxide emissions from the 175bhp (177 DIN hp) 2.2-litre diesel engine in the IS 220d reduced from 168 to 163g/km, moving the model down a band for VED (E to D) So I guess that was when it acquired a DPF.

Very well built. Top quality interior. Lexus dealers are best in the business. Impressive refinement. All engines chain cam. IS250 probably the most reliable car you can buy.
