X1 Series – All Models have a DPF Fitted. If you are considering a BMW from the year in which the DPF was first introduced, then the easiest way of seeing whether the car has a particulate filter fitted, would be to check the exhaust.

If it's a Fabia '2' trim level then it's a pre-facelift and it won't have a DPF. As I understand it, the Greenline was the only pre-facelift Fabia to have a DPF. I can confirm there is no dpf. As above, only the greenline model had this. I have the same car as you btw.

How do I know if my BMW has a DPF? You can find the exhaust pipe between silencer and catalytic converter. In some car models, you will find DPF situated in the catalytic converter. You can check it by running your finger around the inside of the pipe. If it is relatively clean then you can assume that your car has DPF.
Here are a few tips: Tip 1 Do not drive at low revs. Tip 2 Drive for long distances. Tip 3 Use the right engine oil. Tip 4 Have your particulate filter checked. Tip 5 Use a DPF cleaner. Tip 6 Perform maintenance on your car’s fuel system.
How many revs does it take to clean a DPF? You should drive your vehicle for approximately 15 minutes keeping the engine revs between 2000 – 2500 rpm. This is probably best done on an A road. Keep the car in a lower than normal gear (use ‘S’ on an automatic) in order to keep the revs up.
