Post by: dazliss on August 18, 2007, 06:50:23: AS a former P.S.A Puegeot Citreon employee (The french shut us down!) I can tell you that the TDCi/ HDi was a joint development betwen Ford and P.S.A with just slight differences to suit their applications. The same is true of the latest Peugeot petrol engines as fitted to the new 207 though in that cae it is a collabaration with BMW (new mini engine)

As to the reliability issues you mentioned I can't recall that ever being an issue with the peugeot version of the engine although the two Brands do manufaufacture them in different facilities so maybe thats the reson :roll:
