Hi,

I have a 2.2 HDi and the dreaded Antipollution message is coming up all the time. Car drives fine with no drop in performance, i mean it could well be that the filter needs replacing, but I would like to check the fluid to make sure its not that???

But how can i check how much is in there??? Can see where the tank is but is there way that i can check???

Thanks in advance!!!

unless you have a peugeot DIAG then there is no way of knowing unfortunatley

Unfortunately yes. I know when I was pricing up taking mine to a dealer for the same message, I found Abergavenny worth a journey, as they were cheaper and a more personal service.

At the time, I paid £28 & vat for a diagnostics check. My mate phoned them a couple of months later and they told him £50, not sure if that was because he had a petrol. I then had to pay somewhere around £200 for the fluid topup, then the message came back months later, and that time I had to have a differential pressure sensor changed for about £200 again. It said in my invoice, "caused by owner pressure washing filter", but I personally think that was a cop-out for not finding the fault right first time.
