Mazda 3 DPF
#11
I don't know a tremendous amount about it either. I do know that the technology was first used by Mercedes Benz (they may have been the ones to develope it too) and that it reduces emissions in a diesel powered car by feeding the fluid into the exhaust system. It's claimed to be more effective than a diesel particulate filter, a new requirement for diesel powered vehicles here in the States.
Also, I think the US and Europe started using DPF's around the same time (2007 was when the US made it mandatory and required posting the 15ppm stickers at pumps, and I believe 2007 is also when Euro Stage IV requirements were put in place.
