Does the 2021 Tayron have a particulate filter?
1 Answers
The 2021 Tayron is equipped with a particulate filter in all models except the 380 variant. The 2021 Tayron comes in 9 variants, all of which, except the 380 model, include a particulate filter to comply with the China VI emission standards. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine's emission system that captures particulate matter before it is released into the atmosphere. It can reduce soot emissions from diesel engines by over 90%, and the captured particulate matter is subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. 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 particulate filter through a dedicated pipe. Inside, a densely arranged bag-type filter captures the carbon particles on a metal fiber felt filter. Once the accumulated particles reach a certain level, an automatic burner at the end ignites, burning off the captured carbon particles and converting them into harmless carbon dioxide. To check whether the 2021 Tayron has a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: 1. Refer to the Owner's Maintenance Manual and Owner's User Manual to see if the particulate filter function is mentioned. Additionally, check the fault codes in the manual for any indicators related to the "particulate filter" warning light. 2. Look for markings on the oil cap. If the oil cap specifies 0W-20 grade oil, it indicates the presence of a particulate filter. 3. Inspect the exhaust pipe behind the three-way catalytic converter for a cylindrical section. If present, it confirms the installation of a particulate filter.
