FAP shown in Service box?

Post by piglet »

When looking at cars, can I use Service Box to check original FAP fitment?
I checked the 406, which is NON-FAP and Service Box doesn't list it but doesn't actually state NON-FAP or Pre-FAP or FAP-ready
Can I assume if was there it would be clearly shown??
Thanks

I'd have thought so, hold on... Using the vin from my ex-D9: Under characteristics -> Fuel supply-engine -> PARTICLE FILTER WITHOUT PARTICLE FILTER

Using the vin from a certain 2.2HDi estate: PARTICLE FILTER PARTICLE FILTER

Well spotted that man.
and to prove the point, our 406 comes up 'without' whereas the 2.7 407 I've just looked at comes up 'particle filter'

Won't be buying that one then, apart from which it sounded very loose for a good 2-3 seconds before the oil struggled up to pressure.
Question is were any of the 2.7 lumps 'without'?

I think all 407s were so inflicted :(

I've collected a few vins off this forum over the years so I can look up specific stuff on Service Box. I'm not sure if this is one of yours, could be, but I'll not be making the list commercially available...

I take it there's no VAG equivalent to Peugeots Service box?
