OM642 W211 DPF Location Help

[rybu0305]

I recently completed the oil seal fix on my E320. I also had to replace the turbo (used off ebay). Initially still had no power, lots of DPF codes. A bottle of Rislone and 20 minutes of driving got the boost back but the DPF still throwing codes and needs cleaning.

Before I spend a bunch more money I want to try a simple cleaner like this that you spray into the sensor port. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F3TK2TH/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A35BBWF6GE7L48&psc=1

I'm having trouble determining exactly where the DPF is in this vehicle. See image. Can anybody help please?

Search for the part. Once you know what it looks like you will be able to find it, in the exhaust system, just downstream from the manifold.

I have searched the part in many ways and find different images and results. Sometimes it looks like the picture I uploaded other times it looks further down the exhaust.

The one behind the turbo is the catalytic converter
