Thanks all.

Out of curiosity, why do I need to remove DPF?

And yes the car is coming from UK. May I ask how much one pay for the insurance on 320d coupe?

Thanks.

Didie

Thanks all.

Because the 320d brought in by BMW Malaysia are without DPF, with regards to lower quality diesel in Malaysia (Euro2M in contrast with Euro4/5 Diesel in Europe)
Hence,the DPF is removed,or it could get clogged prematurely

if clogged then remove laa :4: theres one e92 320d brought in malaysia by a fellow forumer.. cant remember the nick.. didnt have the DPF removed yet if i m not mistaken.. have not seen any posting the PDF getting clogged yet :4:

if removing is as easy as removing and cleaning air filter,then its another story.heheh
i think this dpf thingy is a lot more complex though.

oh btw,there are no known specialist in malaysia to remove dpf,so if u plan to do so,might as well get it removed there,in the UK.

our fellow doc who brought back the car with dpf still have it in his e92.
but we just don't know how true is the theory of the filter clogging,time will tell though.

Welcome to the forums bro. Nice ride you have there. For the insurance it depends on the selling price of your car, and ur N.C.D

didie...contact/PM Dr Hanis........to ask him abt the DPF

 

[Didie]

I've PM him and got the info. He still has DPF on his car though and no problem so far after travelling 15000 km.

Now im confuse as to remove or not.
