05 1.6 How do I tell if 1.6 TDCi has DPF or not? - scotjohn
Hi folks

first time poster but this forum has been amazing for answers to some questions recently.

I'm looking at a car listed as "2006 FORD FOCUS 1.6 TDCi Ghia 5dr [110] [Euro 4] Diesel Estate" and wondering if it's possible to tell from this if it will have a DPF fitted? Heard too many horror stories and as it's mileage suggests it may need a new filter in the next year or so, I don't want to have to fork out x£100s to get that sorted too.

Cheers

HJ's Car by Car for the Focus has the answer- the 90bhp 1.6 does not, the 110 does, have a DPF....
