wuvvum Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Those things aren't usually too bad for rot, but they do nom the axle bushes as already mentioned. 2.0 HDI 8v is one of the best engines of modern* times. UltraWomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chompy_snake Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 If it shares the engine electrics of the 206 and is displaying antipollution fault ... run away quickly! Could have had my 206 hdi 90 for scrap money if I had been arsed to advertise it before throwing it at a motor trader for £200 lol. Things to watch are really as stated, the axle, side door catches can and do seize, drop link failure is standard and cheap to fix as are snapped front springs .... check below the high pressure diesel pump is dry too as the head seals can and do leak at higher mileages. Can't imagine it has been neglected at the mileage tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiltox Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 2.0 8v HDi will be just behind the K11 Micra in the apocalypse. Braddon81, chompy_snake and theshadow 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 My tame welder has one on 225k. They're definitely good for miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spurious Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 DW10 is the modern day XUD. They're mighty engines and far more drivable everyday than an XUD. Bulletproof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatharris Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Absolutely loved my Xantia HDi - it was the 110 as well, lovely, predictable power curve and very economical.Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artdjones Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 They are supposed to have some negative camber at the back. Just not this much. loserone, HarmonicCheeseburger and UltraWomble 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Q Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Yes it's basically a squarer Picasso the rear axle and front suspension/engine are the same. bezzabsa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxxo Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 decent engines, 110 feels a completely different beast to the 90, but has an intercooler etc good for many many miles i have noticed on both of my C5 and picasso they tend to start having slight injector issues as the mileage increases, little splutter or uneven idle etc it will likely hesistate slightly around 28 mph, nothing to really worry about i've found otherwise, they are great lumps, being a 90 it won't have a dual mass flywheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
