2010 1.9 - will it have a DPF???

[willmatco]

Hi all, we are looking to get a second Leon. I've seen a 59 plate 2010 1.9 TDi for sale. Is this likely to have a DPF? I know they never came with them, but I heard info to say that there were several.....
Any advice welcome!!

I recall a bright yellow mk2 Leon 1.9tdi ecomotive that the dealer I worked at sold, that had a DPF. The engine code was BLS.

I believe that's the only 1.9 with a DPF that Seat used, and it wasn't very popular. The BXE 1.9 was DPF free but poor quality.

The 2.0 170 BMN engines all had DPFs, and anything from 2010 onwards (so face-lifted) with the 1.6 or 2.0 will have a DPF.
