RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - flasher:) - 27-02-2013

Try servicebox with your vin . Servicebox is in the guides section it might say it in there .


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - cully - 27-02-2013

its an early HDI
with water fuel heater not electric
and it has the anti resanance peugoet mod on the fuel line


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - flasher:) - 27-02-2013

early HDI suffered from humming in the fuel lines the mod stops that

go look in the guides section for stage 1 stage 2 stage 3 tuning for the hdi


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - flasher:) - 27-02-2013

ok no probs!


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - Eeyore - 27-02-2013

yep thats a hdi without the cover.

The 1.9 has mechanical fuel injection and the hdi has electrical fuel management.

The other differences involve culture... if you own a 1.9TD youll be on here talking about veg and blowing up your engine... if you own a hdi youll be whining about how 50mpg isnt good enough Smile

Yeah, think its just the ph1's that have the expansion tank built into them, ph2 and 3 its separate. Assuming that what you mean?


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - flasher:) - 27-02-2013

Im not sure if this is ok to ask here, but is anyone selling a de cat pipe o???


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - Piggy - 27-02-2013

search the 'for sale' section!!

taxbook...you said is says 1.9???


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - Oil-burner - 27-02-2013

Just smash the shit out of your cat, all the crap will come out then.


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - Piggy - 28-02-2013

you could get quite a bit of money for it though tbf...lots of precious metals in it


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - puglove - 28-02-2013

Piggy has a point. Would ve smore cost effective to weigh in the cat and buy a proper decat.


For the OP - you dont need a cat for MOT on a hdi so no need to hold on to it


RE: hi, first post. Help me out here boys trying to find out what engine i have. - flasher:) - 28-02-2013

Ok sweet, will a de cat help her rev a bit more freely?? Seems very restricted at the moment
