Hi Simon, ok, so your build date is 12530.
This means your vehicle should be using EOLYS Powerflex additive. Your additive tank should have a Blue cap / click fit connectors for clarification.
Walker supply this fluid product code 80620 which is a 3L kit.
I am trying to work out the correct fluid for a Peugeot 4007 with a build date 12996 (June 2012)
I believe this indicates Eolys Powerflex.
However the click fit connector has GREEN release buttons, but there is a dab of blue paint on the click fit housing....
Can anyone confirm the factory use of dabs of blue paint to override the green click fit connector?
You have a pouch system in this vehicle - these are NOT intended for refill as the pouch will likely tear on extraction ' refit and you don't want that stuff on you.
You require a 1Lt Powerflex pouch.

Be aware you will also need a professional level diagnostic tool to reset the additive counter, or the engine ECU will not know you have changed it and this will lead to issues. The additive is NOT physically measured, so relies on being told it has been replaced and reset.
Note: I've added the above as a separate post as you may not have read the additional bit I originally added to my post above.

No problem, just make sure they do it properly - as we've seen people do this and the garages can't always do it correctly, leading to warnings and messages further down the line when it thinks the pouch is empty again and will cause issues.

Here is how I dealt with the additive tank low and engine service light warning. I used a Foxwell NT530 scanner loaded with Peugeot software.
-I first filled 3 litres of additive to the additive tank and tried to reset the additive tank fault code, failed. It just wouldn't let me to do it; always had reset failed or communication failed
-I then ran the regeneration mode on the DPF. Afterwards, I tried replaced the DPF in the scanner, it still won't let me erase error.
-I later purchased a new DPF considering the existing one had already done 150K kms, refurbishing may be helpless.
-After fitting the new DPF, the scanner still disallowed me to run the 'replaced the DPF' and "fill additive tank".
Here is how it worked for me:
-replace the DPF
-Run the regeneration with the scanner
-Run "replace the DPF" in the scanner, succeed. The scanner would load the correct data into the car and erase the fault code.
-Run the" fill additive tank" in the scanner, noticed the amount is defaulted as 1850 ml. The scanner then loaded the data into the car.
-Run the "total quantity in the DPF, I selected 10g for a new DPF ((0 or 10k Kms). There is a table on line showing what dose for what kms
-All fault codes were cleared
* The car would enter energy economy mode from time to time which would interrupt the programming. The way I dealt with it is hook up a charger running in power supply mode (13.7V), positive to battery positive, negative to engine body. Use the scanner to BSI and run "exit energy economy mode" . This will buy you one hour no "energy economy"mode but if you have started or stopped the car, you have to do this again. When run the "replace DPF" and "fill additive tank", the car must be in "ignition ON but the engine Not started"
I guess the reset/erase fault code would need some data from running the regeneration mode to be enabled.
Hi people! Maybe you could help me to find out which additive i should use for peugeot 3008 Nr: VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]
I'm lost, help.
