Does the Tayron have a particulate filter?
1 Answers
Tayron 2020 and 2021 models with the 280 engine are equipped with the EA211-DJS engine, which includes a particulate filter. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine's emission system that captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. It can reduce soot emissions from diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate matter is subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Working principle of the particulate filter: 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. When the accumulated particulate matter reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites, burning off the captured carbon particles and converting them into harmless carbon dioxide. To check if the Tayron has a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: Check the and to see if the particulate filter function is mentioned. Additionally, carefully review the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "particulate filter" warning light indicator. Check the label on the oil cap. If the oil cap clearly states the use of 0W-20 grade oil, it indicates the presence of a particulate filter. Look behind the three-way catalytic converter to see if there is a cylindrical section on the exhaust pipe. If present, that is the particulate filter.
