Diesel Particulate Filter......have I got one ?

Hi , I'm a newbie to all this Evoque stuff.....give me an air cooled veedub any day !!
I have just bought a sept 2014 2.2 ED4, two wheel drive diesel . I want to buy the correct oil , and the handbook gives two types, one for cars with a DPF, and one without. I've searched everywhere...how the heck do I find out whether I have a DPF or not ? My old old veedub handbook has 8 pages for the whole car...this one has 23 pages on how to turn the radios on

Thanks, but the handbook says that there is also an Diesel engine without a DPF . I'm assuming that mine does have a DPF , but there are definitely two options in the hand book. Thinks I will just bung some 20/50 in it....works in the dub.

UK Diesel, it has one!

The exhaust emissions standards for new cars have effectively required fitment of a DPF in the exhaust of diesel cars since 2009 when the 'Euro 5' standard came into force.
