Volvo V90 Diesel Particulate Filter DPF (2016-Today)

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) on a Volvo V90 diesel engine captures harmful fine particles and soot from exhaust gases to reduce emissions. It filters these particles on a porous surface and periodically regenerates by burning off the deposits at high temperatures. Regeneration can be passive, using natural heat and catalytic converter reactions, or active, by injecting extra fuel to raise the temperature and burn the soot, thus maintaining efficient filter capacity and reducing pollution.

The DPF is located in the exhaust line behind the turbocharger and is often integrated with a catalytic converter. It collects particles automatically during normal driving, with sensors and the engine control unit monitoring pressure and temperature to manage the regeneration process.

The DPFs are designed for multiple Volvo V90 variants including:

• V90 II Cross Country D4 (236) – D4 Diesel engine, 163 hp, Euro 6 standard
• V90 II D3 (235) – D3 Diesel engine, Euro 6 standard

These filters fit models from approximately 2016 to 2023+ with integrated DPF and catalytic converters meeting Euro 6 regulations.

DPF regeneration occurs in two main ways:

• Passive regeneration: soot burns off naturally at high exhaust temperatures aided by the catalytic converter.
• Active regeneration: when pressure sensors detect clogging, the engine control unit injects extra fuel to raise the temperature above 600°C to burn the soot.

Frequent highway driving helps the filter reach operating temperature to maintain regeneration and prevent clogging.

Common problems include clogging due to short city trips or low-speed driving that prevent the filter from reaching the high temperatures needed for regeneration. Symptoms include reduced engine performance and warning lights.

• Regularly drive on highways to maintain proper operating temperature and facilitate regeneration.
• Avoid frequent short trips or stop-and-go traffic that keep the engine and exhaust system cold.

If clogging occurs, professional cleaning or replacement may be necessary.

To keep the DPF fully functional:

• Regular driving at operating speeds and temperatures to enable automatic regeneration.
• Use recommended fuel and engine oil to prevent deposits and contamination.
• Promptly address any engine warning or exhaust system malfunction signs.
• Replace the DPF with approved Euro 6 parts if necessary, ensuring proper installation and sensor replacement.

Professional inspection with OBD diagnostics can help track filter health and performance data.
