Cheap Peugeot 108 DPF

The Peugeot 108 was sold exclusively with petrol engines in the UK, so it does not use a DPF in the conventional diesel sense; DPFs are fitted to diesel engines to trap soot particles. If you are seeing a DPF-related fault on a petrol 108 it may relate to a petrol particulate filter (PPF) on later Euro 6 versions, which is a different component. Confirm exactly what filter you need with your breaker against your registration number before ordering.

The Peugeot 108 ran from 2014 to 2021, with a facelift introduced in 2018 that brought Euro 6 emissions compliance across the range; earlier cars were predominantly Euro 6b from around 2016, but the 2018 update is the clearest boundary. A particulate filter from a pre-2018 car may differ from one fitted to a post-2018 car due to emissions-standard changes, and fitting the wrong era part could cause an MOT failure. Name both registration years when you contact a breaker and ask them to confirm the part matches your specific engine code and emissions standard before purchasing.

The Peugeot 108, Toyota Aygo, and Citroen C1 of the same generation share a platform and engines, so there is platform commonality, but whether a specific particulate filter is interchangeable across those badges is strong confirm-with-breaker territory. Give the breaker your registration and ask them to cross-reference the part number from the donor vehicle before agreeing a sale.

Trim level does not affect which particulate filter your 108 needs; fitment is determined by the engine code and the emissions standard the car was built to, not whether it is an Active, Allure, or Roland Garros edition. You may find minor cosmetic differences in surrounding exhaust components between cars depending on age, but the filter itself follows the engine and emissions rules. Focus your search on matching the engine code and model year rather than the trim name.

Most Peugeot 108s registered from around 2015 onward were Euro 6 compliant, though the exact cut-over point for your specific car is best confirmed against your V5C or by checking your registration with a breaker, as emissions standard directly affects which particulate filter is correct. Fitting a filter from a different emissions era may not only fail to clear fault codes but could also cause an MOT failure. Always confirm the emissions standard of both your car and the donor vehicle with the breaker before purchasing.

A used particulate filter can be fitted to a 108, and many breakers supply them as a cost-effective alternative to new, but the filter must match your engine code and emissions standard exactly. Because DPF and particulate filter interchange specifics are complex and MOT implications are real, you should confirm compatibility with the breaker against your registration rather than relying on visual similarity alone. A reputable breaker should be able to supply the donor vehicle's registration so you or a mechanic can verify the match before fitting.
