We run a 2012 MAN TGX tractor unit for deliveries - vehicle is Euro5 specification with AdBlue and a DPF.

Replacement DPF and silencer (comes as one non-serviceable component)
£13k+fitting!!!!

Glad its on a full R&M lease!
Ouch, but is is a tractor so should be running filth fuel anyway.

Not much consolation for you but ships too are affected by emmisions now with Marpol tier 3 all new builds will have to comply and old ships need to clean up their acts (depending where they operate) buy fitting scrubbers, urea tanks or scavenge air moisturising systems. Fitting these to a non compliant ship can be mega bucks.
