when replacing or rebuilding the turbo clean the oil feed from the engine block or it will only fail again.

hi tom, what do you think about sound like police siren of this hdi ?
(6. – 7. second )

Well don’t buy a toyota 1.4 d with a shitty french engine . simple
same engins are in toyoa example 1.4 hdi same engine toyota 1.4 d
Hi there, I have a 307sw with same engine, interesting to see it with the front off. Can I ask did you notice a any sign of leakage around the injectors as I understand this is related to the root cause of sludge build up in the bottom of the engine (leading to turbo being starved of oil as you said)?
All the modern diesel are very fragile, same thing by Toyota…: to avoyd expansive problems, buy gasoline cars…
The 1.6 HDi is a great, tough little engine. Lack of maintenance = engine fail on any car, including Toyotas. New Toyota engines aren’t reliable either. The 2jz days are history. The HDi needs regular oil changes with the right oil. Mine’s got 43,000 miles and no sign of trouble so far !
I agree somewhat. I think manufacturers try and squeeze more power and better fuel economy out of smaller engines is putting a lot of strain on it. They couple this by extending the service intervals and it seems as if cars start to fail just as they fall outside warranty. I religiously stick to oil and filter changes every 5k and never work the engine until it’s properly heated up. Magnetic sump plug doesn’t hurt either.
I was also considering a 2013 Toyota Corolla with a 1.8 VVTi naturally aspirated gasoline engine. It only costs 20% more than a 2009 407 HDI. The Toyota comes with only 2 airbags, rear brakes have drums instead of discs, no leather seats, no sunroof, onboard computer sucks, no xenon lights, and at least other 30 security and comfort accesories are missing. The engine and gearbox are great but the rest is just too basic for me.
Buy a Toyota never buy French crap
hi guys, I am thinking about getting a 407 2.0 HDI or a newer 408 1.6 HDI. Any recommendations?
funny that ive seen loads of these crap engines fully serviced with fully synthetic low saps oil blow 2 or 3 turbos would not have one as a gift
Its not that they are, they are like every engine if you dont look after them properly they are more prone to breaking, ive seen one of these engines with 140k on the clock and never been serviced except timing belt and it still running 100%
If i keep replacing the oil with the low saps oil will this sort the issues with the turbo or is it just a troublesome engine ? I’v heard something about a leaky injectors seal causes the problems with the turbo ?
A large car with a small under powered 1.6 diesel engine will always need more php . a little oil is the norm as long as its still boosting okay. Check all vacuum hoses for cracks or splits 100%.you could try adjusting the actuator, I did it was fantastic and the kids were screaming . lol
i have a 407 1.6l hdi lack of power and a bit of oil leak near the turbo
what exactly do i have to do to bring this engine back to life?
beside the turbo what do i have to change?
thanks in advance
Great car!
The engine is not fragile. My van’s engine has seen 4 years of multi-drop delivery in all weather. Blaming an engine for idiot owner negligence isn’t really on. Same problem with cam wear on VAG PD TDI where owners have tried to save a few quid on oil and left later owners with wear issues. Don’t buy a car if you aren’t prepared to look after it as it was intended it’s just dangerous and irresponsible.
1.6 hdi engine..it is simply over stressed….if its missed a service…then this happens all too often…avoid!…almost always oil starvation…not the nut falling off on the spindle…one tip is to actually remove the filter completely…it gets blocked sooooo easily and kills the fragile turbo on this model….and then change the oil again after 100 miles….then cross ur fingers and pray!
Get rid of the DPF, it also puts strain on the turbo when blocked.
Peugeot/Citroen 1.6HDI DV6TED4 16v 110BHP Cylinder Head Removel for repairs.Take a look i see a lot of these engines with various problems does not seem to make a difference on age or miles
dont you have to calibrate the spindles? to get lasting results?
If i were you id remove the inlet manifold and scrape out the sludge deposits in there. i would also blank off the egr valve yet leave it plugged in as this is also another poor add on for this engine.
the 1.6 liter hdi turbocharger damage are completely normal when at 100.ooo km of the turbocharger are broken. because oil sludge formed in the oil supply line and the stock turbo and the turbo you rub around the ears so just flying dirt peugeot technology
I’ve seen new ones with carbon deposits around the turbo area if its running fine I wouldn’t worry to much.
i have this engine on a 407 1.6 hdi 2006, and i’ve noticed a lot of carbon build up on the housing of the compressor side of the turbo, i’m confused as this build up is external and starts from the oil feed pipe and comes across the compressor housing, could this be a problem with the seal or maybe the oil feed pipe?
These arent such bad engines. If maintanance’d well there’s no problems with it. Offcourse people drive 40k km on the same oil… Your own fault. I Repair ALOT of these. Suprisingly these engine’s r not claustrophobic inside. So if they do break down, its almost always fixable 🙂 Cant say that for the VAG tdi’s with damaged (worn out) heads and big hole’s in the engine block. Anyway always remove the Filter in the Trubo oil line it will do no harm at all. Crappy englisch sry 😛
Similar issue with subbies. Don’t know if they have problems with the same turbocharger supplier or model.

It’s not a bad engine. The turbocharger suffers oil starvation because of shyte oil (virtually all “synthetic”/”fully synthetic” oil are just hydrocracked mineral base stock instead of a PAO fully synthetic, most people are clueless about this), long oil change intervals on shyte oil and oil screen, mesh or filter on the end of the turbocharger oil feed line that screw into the block.
There’s a similar problem with Turbocharged Subarus & they have a service bulletin out as well.
Good morning
O my good brother. Why are you talking about
