Particulate additive fluid, often referred to as EOLYS or Cerine, is a fluid that is injected into the exhaust stream to lower the ignition temperature of soot in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), facilitating its removal during regeneration.
Your vehicle's dashboard will typically display a warning light related to the DPF system when the additive fluid level is low or the DPF is full. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for specific warning light interpretations.
No, refilling the additive fluid tank and resetting the vehicle's computer system requires specialized tools and knowledge. It is recommended to have this procedure performed by a qualified mechanic.
This pouch contains 1.1 liters (1.1L) of particulate additive fluid.
This specific pouch (9678033980) is designed for Citroen C3 MK2 and DS3 vehicles with the 1.6 HDI engine.
The frequency of refilling depends on driving conditions and mileage, but typically it is required every 60,000 to 100,000 miles. The vehicle's system will indicate when a refill is necessary.
If the additive fluid is not refilled when indicated, the DPF will eventually become clogged, leading to reduced engine performance, increased fuel consumption, and potentially costly damage to the DPF and other engine components.
This could indicate low additive fluid, a clogged DPF, or other issues. Have the vehicle diagnosed by a professional. Low additive fluid will require a refill and system reset.
This is often a consequence of a full DPF. Ensure the additive fluid level is adequate and the DPF regeneration cycles are functioning correctly. Professional diagnosis is recommended.
Check for blockages in the dispensing line or issues with the fuel pump or injectors responsible for dispensing the fluid. This requires professional inspection.
Compatibility: This particulate additive fluid pouch is designed exclusively for Citroen C3 MK2 and DS3 vehicles equipped with the 1.6 HDI engine. Always verify your vehicle's engine specifications before purchase.
Setup: Refilling the additive fluid is not a DIY task. It requires specialized diagnostic equipment to reset the additive fluid level counter and initiate the system after the refill. This process should be performed by a qualified mechanic or an authorized service center. Incorrect refilling or system resetting can lead to DPF damage.
Care: The additive fluid is a consumable that depletes over time. The vehicle's management system will typically monitor the level and trigger a warning light when it is low. Ensure the system is checked during regular servicing. Store the pouch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight until it is ready for installation by a professional.
