If it points down to the ground, it has no DPF. If it comes straight out the back, it has a DPF. That's assuming the car still has the stock exhaust.

KwS 2425 Report post Posted November 18, 2020 According to RealOEM you should have option 200 if you have a DPF. That car does not have option 200, so shouldnt have a DPF. RealOEM also indicates that the DPF equipped cars have a different rear muffler, but both still point down. There is another option if the car has a DPF and M Aero package together.

Pre MY 07 had the catalytic converter. After that was a DPF to the best of my knowledge. I could be wrong though. Does your car have option code 200? Would be keen to learn if i am wrong.
