This issue also affects: Citroen Berlingo, Citroen C4, Citroen C5 Aircross

Common Symptoms

  • DPF warning light
  • Limp mode
  • Reduced pulling power
  • Frequent regen attempts

How to Fix

Schedule regular forced DPF regenerations as part of fleet maintenance. Consider installing a DPF-friendly route into the daily schedule. Top up Eolys additive at each service.
