DV6DTED Engine.

[Uberderv]

Hi all,

I've just bought a 207 sw 1.6Hdi with the DV6DTED engine and was wondering if it suffers from the same issue as the others regarding the injectors backing off?
Looking at the injectors on this 8v engine it has a similar clamping method to the older DW10 engine. I'm hoping Peugeot has addressed this issue on later engines.
Also I had some pretty decent technical documents for the DW10 engine, is there such a thing for this engine? I carry out all my own servicing/repairs and as this engine is new (to me) I'd like to swat up on it

Thanks

DV6DTED is a 16V engine, the later 8V engine is DV6C - if you post the VIN I can check what engine is in it.

There's no specific manual for these engines - but apart from a propensity for injector failure, we almost never hear of engine troubles - lots of other electrical maladies!

Hi Richard, thanks for the reply. Maybe I've got the codes wrong. Here in the VIN -

I've just retired my almost faultless 306 Hdi after 210k. It's still going but on borrowed time, I'm hoping the 207 will be a good replacement. The Mpg on the drive home was brilliant.

Check all the injector bolts are tight (but don't overdo it!). Any sign of leakage then get them out and re-do the seals. If you are planning on keeping it, then I would pull the DPF and the turbo feed banjo bolt and pull the screen out of it.

Thanks, I don't know where I got 8v from then!! The injectors appear to be held down with a single multi spline bolt and clamp. It's been serviced recently but I'll have to buy a low range torque wrench to check them. I did have a peep in there and saw what looked like a thin smear of oil around the head/injectors on the gear box side.
My plan is to sort the EGR and DPF then remap, I'll add the turbo feed screen too.

Morning everyone, this has been confusing me all night. The below pic is the same as my engine which I believe is the 8v but my VIN brings up a 16v. Could it of been replaced or is something going a bit squewy with the codes.

That picture won't tell you anything. It's what's inside that matters. If you have provided your VIN correctly, then you have what Richard has told you.

[RichardW]

That's a DV6C 8v. Engine no recorded as 10 JBEJ 3083800. If it looks like that, either it's been changed, or the car is a ringer....

[Uberderv]

Gulp!! That pic wasn't my engine bay but it has the same one fitted. The car was originally registered in Jersey if that makes any difference then lived in Scotland. It has a full service history, maybe I could ring the garage to see if they've done it.

It would be a lot of work to replace with the later engine. Double check the VIN you quoted is right? What colour is it / what date was it registered?

If i recall these locking bolts are a strange set up and you don't over tighten them its like stud then bolt type hex inserted screw like small tube , if that makes sense , as i say don't over tighten these, youtube has videos about these.

It was first registered on 18/01/2013. Colour, VIN etc... all matches up. I'm not complaining if it's a better redesigned engine. Just for ordering parts etc...

The injectors fitted to this engine are very similar to the old DW10 engine.

2 stage tighten 1.6hdi.
1 4nm
2 Angle tighten a further 65°

Or 2.0hdi

Sohc 30nm
Dohc engine 4nm then angle tighten 65°

After scanning the net people seem to be torquing to bolts during servicing to approx 12Nm. Would this be an acceptable method? Otherwise you'd have to back them off then start the process.
