Understanding the Citroen Dispatch (2007 to 2016) DPF Fault

If you're encountering issues with your Citroen Dispatch, specifically from models between 2007 and 2016, there’s a good chance it might be related to the Diesel Particulate Filter, commonly known as the DPF. As a seasoned mechanic with over a decade and a half in the field, I’ve seen my fair share of these faults, and I’m here to shed some light on this particular issue.

What Causes a DPF Fault in Your Citroen Dispatch?

The DPF is an emission control device designed to remove diesel particulate matter or soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine. However, several factors can disrupt its normal functioning:

- Short Drives: Not driving long enough for the DPF to reach the required temperature to burn off the soot.

- Low Quality Fuel: Using diesel that isn't up to standard can lead to soot buildup faster than usual.

- Sensor Issues: Faulty sensors can falsely report DPF issues or fail to trigger the regeneration process needed to clean out the soot.

Symptoms Indicating a DPF Issue in Your Citroen Dispatch

If the DPF in your Citroen Dispatch isn’t working properly, you might notice several indicators, such as:

- Reduced engine performance

- Increased fuel consumption

- The DPF warning light illuminating on the dashboard

- A pungent smell of diesel

- Exhaust emitting visible smoke

Possible Repairs for a DPF Fault

Repairing a DPF fault can vary in complexity. It could be as simple as performing a manual regeneration cycle to burn off excess soot, or it might involve checking and replacing faulty sensors. In more severe cases, the entire DPF unit may need replacing, which can be quite costly.

Why might you consider selling your Citroen Dispatch instead of dealing with the DPF issue? Well, let’s weigh the options.

Should You Sell Your Citroen Dispatch?

Repairing a DPF fault, especially in older models like the Citroen Dispatch from 2007 to 2016, can sometimes be more trouble than it's worth. The cost of parts and labor can quickly add up, not to mention the time your vehicle will be out of action. This is where Vandervan can step in to provide a smooth, hassle-free solution.

At Vandervan, we understand the inconvenience and the unforeseen expenses that can arise from mechanical failures. That's why we offer a fast, efficient service to buy your van. You can receive a quote in just 30 seconds and have your van collected the very next day from anywhere in the UK. Selling your vehicle to us can sidestep the repair headaches and help you get back on the road with a newer, more reliable model with fewer mechanical concerns.

If you decide to sell your financed van, the initial step is to obtain a 'settlement figure' from your lender, which you can usually find in a settlement letter. Following that, get a valuation for your van.

Our team will walk you through the settlement process.

Is it better to trade in my van or sell my van online?

By selling your van through our service, you join a robust network of over 4,000 verified dealers.

This can often result in a more favourable price compared to part exchange, where you might find yourself confined to a single dealer’s assessment, which might not accurately represent the real market value of your van.

Part exchanges often result in less favourable outcomes for sellers, particularly if the dealer is not intending to retail your van and plans to pass it along instead.

However, with our van buying service, you stand a better chance of obtaining a great price.

The process with us is quick and straightforward. Simply start with a free valuation and contrast this with your part exchange offer. You might be delighted to find how much more you could get from using our service than you’d get from a part exchange!

Can I sell my van with no V5 Logbook?

Fortunately, we buy any van even if they do not have a logbook, although it is advantageous if you have a full V5 Logbook, or at least the green New Keeper Slip.

It makes it tougher to sell to our network of 4000+ verified dealers, as we have to wait for the DVLA to process a V62 application (usually 6 weeks), so our valuations reflect the delay in sale and storage costs while rectifying missing V5 logbooks.
