^^what he said. The rubbish one.

[flasher:)]

whats the difference to see between that and a 1.9??? thanks for the quick reply

[Herby7]

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

[cully]

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

[flasher:)]

ok cheers lads great job, what is an anti resanance mod??

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

ok no probs!

[Eeyore]

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

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?

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

[Piggy]

search the 'for sale' section!!

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

[Oil-burner]

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

[Piggy]

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

[puglove]

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

[flasher:)]

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