I take it you've got a 1.4 TDI and that you're referring to the diesel particulate filter, right? What exactly do you mean by Cupé filter?

I think the diesel A2's were fitted with a diesel oxidation catalytic convertor at the factory.

Some older oil-burning Audis can be retro-fitted with a diesel particulate filter, however I don't know if there is a genuine Audi part available for the A2. There are however several third party/pattern part suppliers who supply DPFs to replace the original oxidation cat on the A2.

These retro-fit particulate filters are probably not the most efficient type because electronics etc. are usually required to achieve the best filtering, self-cleaning etc. However, even the more basic filters should still significantly reduce soot emissions.
