Exactly as welshpug says! as far as I'm aware mainly turbo issues, my mate has a garage and he quite often has either the 1.6 hdi's and ford 1.6 tdci's in with turbo issues, not a cheap thing to put right either. I'm led to believe that the 2l hdi is a much safer bet! |

Oh right, that's interesting. I had a 1.6 HDi Citroen Xsara Picasso in the past, and that was generally ok whilst i owned the car. Something to bear in mind though  thanks ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

The turbo's only go because people cut corners and use the incorrect engine oil. Service history is the key or go new! |

turbos go due to blocked oil feed return pipes, they should be cleaned/replaced every 40k miles and correct grade engine oil used and changed every 8k miles. Also suffer from egr valve failure and there £200 to buy a new egr valve. Other than that they are a great engine.Rebuild kit for turbo is around £120 and about 2 and half hour job so not that bad as long as you dont carry on driving them when turbo is on its way out. |
