Fiat Sedici Diesel Particulate Filter DPF (2006-2014)

The Fiat Sedici diesel particulate filter (DPF) is compatible with several diesel engine variants, primarily including:

• 2.0 D Multijet 4x4 (engine code D20AA) with 135 hp / 99 kW, produced from 2009/08 to 2014/11
• 1.9 Multijet 8V with 120 hp
• 1.9 CDTi models from 2006 onwards

These engines are equipped with a DPF to meet emissions standards and reduce particulate emissions.

The Diesel Particulate Filter for the Fiat Sedici must comply with the Euro 5 emissions standard. Filters on the market must be tested according to UN-ECE Regulation No. 103-Rev.1 + Amendment 1 (dated 10.06.2014) and have the E-mark certification for European homologation. This ensures the DPF is road-legal and meets strict environmental regulations.

The original equipment (OE) part numbers compatible with the Fiat Sedici 2.0 D Multijet 4x4 diesel particulate filter include:

• 51838592
• 51853862
• 51875637
• 53164241

The corresponding European Economic Community (EEC) comparison number is FI6068T.

A common indication of DPF problems is the illumination of the DPF engine warning light on the dashboard. This warning alerts the driver to a potential failure of the particulate filter system, which can cause increased emissions pollution and negatively affect engine performance. Immediate attention is recommended to avoid further damage or increased pollutant emissions.

Approved replacement DPF units for the Fiat Sedici diesel offer several advantages:

• No need for separate registration or isolated technical inspection with authorities
• No obligation to return or surrender the old DPF unit
• Vehicle’s tax classification remains unchanged
• Manufactured by specialized European factories with expert exhaust system technology

These factors simplify installation and compliance while ensuring performance and legality.

A standard DPF replacement kit generally contains:

• One brand-new particulate filter, carefully packaged
• All necessary mounting hardware for installation
• A comprehensive PDF installation guide
• Certification of homologation available upon request

This ensures a straightforward, professional replacement process.

Yes, the exhaust system for the Fiat Sedici diesel engines equipped with a DPF also contains a catalytic converter positioned near the engine. This component works together with the DPF to reduce exhaust emissions and ensure compliance with emission norms.

• DPF unit filters particulate matter
• Catalytic converter reduces harmful gases

Together, these components help maintain environmental standards and vehicle efficiency.

Some vehicle owners seek alternatives to full DPF replacement, such as professional DPF cleaning services. These services can help restore the filter's functionality by removing accumulated soot and ash, potentially extending the DPF’s lifespan and avoiding or postponing replacement.

• DPF cleaning reduces blocked filter issues
• Maintains correct differential pressure sensor readings
• Supports proper regeneration cycles

However, cleaning effectiveness depends on the filter’s condition and driving habits. Consult with your service provider for advice tailored to your Fiat Sedici model and usage.

Regular diagnostic checks and timely maintenance are recommended to maintain the DPF system’s performance.
