The question was do all 3.0l D4 have DPF, I believe you are right in the sence the 2.7 onces can be brought without DPF but I believe all 3.0l ones have DPF Thumbs Up

I meant this bit:

Quote:
1 2.7 TDV6 Diesel
2 3.8 TDV8 Diesel
3 4.2 V8 Petrol Supercharged
4 4.0 V6 Petrol
5 4.4 V8 Petrol NA (AJV8)
6 2.7 TDV6 Diesel with DPF
7 3.8 TDV8 Diesel with DPF
D 5.0 V8 Petrol NA
E 5.0 V8 Petrol Supercharged
F 3.0 TDV6 Diesel
G 3.0 TDV6 Diesel with DPF


So there is such a thing as 3.0 without a DPF (possibly not in the UK though - but maybe some early ones?). Thumbs Up

Yes there are 3.0 D4 without DPF in the UK. Predominantly 2010. I've got one.

Relieved to have read this thread.

Occasionally my 2015 D4 exhaust sound changes to a slightly gruff sound, almost as though the exhaust is blowing accompanied at the same time with a smell like hot singeing rubber from the outside.

Looks like it could be the DPF in regen mode then?......hopefully. Rolling Eyes

According to the VIN decoding thingy, my 2010 one here in South Africa doesn't have a DPF either. Surprised

No idea if good or bad? LOL Whistle

Got a mate with a 4 year old Jag XF showing 40k miles. His DPF went pop and has just had it replaced at a main dealer with not much change out of £3k Shocked

He's got more money than sense and you could probably get it done cheaper, but seems like another big bill looms as D4's get older Sad

Always playing things on the safe side, spoke to LR Assist who suggested one of their technicians came out to check it over.

Checked the exhaust system fully and could not find anything close enough to it to produce an acrid smell due to high temps ocurring during regen.

Said he had been called out to many such smell related worries and had never found a problem.

The techy agreed that the smell is a characteristic of the process but was unable to identify a point where the smell externally is generated from.

I noticed that smell outside the vehicle (2016MY) HSE Lux this week. 3K miles in and pretty strong (burning) smell.

Has stopped now some 200 miles later
