Currently, the 2.0T high and low power versions of the Passat are not equipped with particulate filters, while other models do have them. The particulate filter can reduce the particles in engine exhaust emissions, recycle them, decrease vehicle exhaust emissions, enhance the environmental friendliness of the vehicle, and reduce atmospheric pollution. To check whether a vehicle is equipped with 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 examine the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "particulate filter" warning light indicator. Check the label on the oil filler cap. If the oil filler cap clearly indicates 0W-20 grade oil, it means the vehicle is equipped with a particulate filter. Look behind the three-way catalytic converter to see if there is a cylindrical section on the exhaust pipe. If there is, that is the particulate filter. Location of the particulate filter: The particulate filter is located behind the three-way catalytic converter and in front of the muffler, surrounded by the front and rear oxygen sensors.
