Jaguar XF - does it have a diesel particulate filter?

Does the Jaguar XF have a DPF and if yes, are you aware of any problems? We have had problems with our current Vauxhall Insignia and don't want a repeat.

Yes. The diesels do. Problems with both EGRs and DPFs when used for repeated short runs from cold. No problems when used for driving distances.

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
