Citroen c3 Picasso anti pollution fault

Unread post by janihorvat »

Hi Marc.
I have a question. I have Citroen C3 Picasso V/N: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] . Today has been displayed: anti pollution fault. I understood that DPF filter is full, I had already the same problem on my DS5.
Could you please check and tell me if my C3 Picasso have fluid tank and where is it to fill it!?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Jani (Slovenia)

You have your VIN wrong, (it's a 'C' not a '6') but it's OK, I have it.

To answer your specific question: Your vehicle has a pouch system and needs Powerflex additive. The additive housing is located next to the fuel tank, usually hidden under heat shielding to protect it from the exhaust heat.

Anti pollution fault basically just means engine management fault. It could be loads of things causing this & may have absolutely nothing to do with the DPF. You need to get the faults read first & take it from there.
