If something is blocking the particulate (aka FAP) filter in your
Peugeot 307 with an Hdi common rail engine, your car will usually notify
you with a flashing Particle Filter warning lamp. If this happens, you
should use the Scan Tool to enter the engine control unit (ECU)
diagnostic.VOLVO VIDA DICE
This should display more specific information about any problems with
your filter. Read the fault codes and take measures specific to those
codes to clear the errors.

A Fault Code Will Read: "Filter Blocked" or "Filter Clogged"
When "Filter Blocked" fault codes show up, your FAP filter has either
reached the end of its service life or it is dirty. In either case, you
or your technician should perform a Regeneration to burn off any
remaining particles on the filter. If the warning still comes on after
the regeneration, replace the filter. Regenerating a Peugeot 307
involves bringing the temperature inside the filter to around 450
degrees C. Under normal driving conditions, this condition will result
after 250 to 300 miles, but stop-and-start urban driving may not be
conducive to this. Instead, your technician could force a regeneration
under specified temperature conditions and fuel tank levels.

A Fault Code May Also Read: "Minimum Level"
In addition to any codes alerting to you to a blocked FAP filter
itself, other codes may refer to the other component of the FAP system
in the Peugeot 307, or the additive that assists the diesel in reaching
the necessary temperature to burn off the trapped particles. This
additive is stored in its own designated chamber. If the additive is
low, you must refill or top off the reservoir.Digiprog 3
The error code will inform you of this with a "Minimum Level"
indicator. After refilling the reservoir, you or your technician must
reset the Quantity of Additive function to zero and reprogram the value.
You will find that this fault code sometimes shows up simultaneously
with the Filter Blocked code, in which case you should both replace the
filter and replenish the additive.
Reduced Power and Fuel Economy
The function of the FAP filter is to reduce diesel particulate levels
in engine emissions by filtering the exhaust. When the FAP filter
becomes blocked, it can't do its job of filtering the trapped particles.
This may or may not result in a noticeable change in the car's
performance. However, you may see reduced power, sluggishness and
reduced fuel economy.

Fuel Level Sensor May Be Faulty
If you replaced the FAP filter, refilled the additive and reset the
counters, and the "Filter Blocked" warning still returns, you may have
the concurrent problem of a Fuel Level sensor going out.BMW ICOM A3 Pro
This is the sensor that monitors the fuel level, allowing the
proportional amount of additive to be injected. Malfunction of the
sensor could prevent operation, requiring you to replace the sensor; if
you are still under warranty, Peugeot should cover this cost.
