Does the 2019 Tayron have a particulate filter?
1 Answers
The 2019 Tayron is equipped with a particulate filter to meet the China VI emission standards. The particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine's emission system, which captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. It can reduce soot emissions from diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Diesel engine pollution mainly comes from three sources—particulate emissions, hydrocarbons (HCx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and sulfur. Among them, particulate emissions (soot) are mostly composed of tiny particles of carbon or carbide (smaller than 4-20μm). How the particulate filter works: The diesel particulate filter is coated with metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium. The black smoke containing carbon particles emitted by the diesel engine enters the engine's exhaust particulate trap through a dedicated pipe. After passing through its densely arranged bag-type filter, the carbon soot particles are adsorbed onto a filter made of metal fiber felt. When the adsorption of particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites, burning off the adsorbed carbon soot particles and converting them into harmless carbon dioxide. To check whether the 2019 Tayron has a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: Check the and to see if there is a particulate filter function. Additionally, you can carefully check the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "Particulate Filter" warning light indicator. Check the label above the oil filler cap. If the oil cap clearly states 0W-20 grade oil, it indicates the presence of a particulate filter. Look behind the three-way catalytic converter on the exhaust pipe to see if there is a cylindrical section. If there is, that is the particulate filter.
