You could be right - I've never looked to see if my wagon has one. But I doubt that extra fuel alone could raise the exhaust temperature enough at low speeds to complete a regen.

I have very few regens occur at low speed, but sometimes notice the engine temp changing while driving, which I expect is a regen. Maybe the vaporiser is only used when the extra fuel alone cannot provide enough heat?
