Peugeot Diesels
Discussion
Hi
New to the forum but looking for some help. I have a Peugeot boxer based motorhome (1998 R reg)that has the XUD9 diesel 1.9 lump in it. I am looking to install a turbo onto the engine from another 1.9TD lump. The question is; is it that simple or do I have to change the whole engine?
1, Compression Ratio?
2, Diesel pump compatability?
3, Oil feed to turbo?
4, Exhaust pipe changes?
Anyone who has any experience of doing this please help. My local breakers yard has a lump in it but before I part with any cash I want to be sure. I always understood that turbo lumps generally have a lower compression ratio so installing one on a normally asspirated lump could cause the engine to go bang.
Thanks
Neil

Thing you will find the pistons are different(lower compression)and the block is fitted with nozzles/jets near the main bearing housings to shoot oil from the main gallery under the piston crowns for additional cooling would be inclined to say cam timing is different also,the sump as the Turbo drain back pipe fitted too,may have a bigger volume oil pump and the diesel pump will be a differnt part number(possibly down to calibration etc)

Con rods are different as well. The Pug 306 fitted with the TD lump built in a specific couple of years (97/98 IIRC) suffered from a spate of broken con rods, the general consensus is that NA rods were fitted to these.
Bloody hell why did they change such a bullet proof diesel,i think the XUD will go down as being one of the best Diesel lumps(well i think so)probably find they tried rationalizing the old girl,my TD is on 195k and returns 48mpg uses no oil and is on the original Turbo i knew of a non Turbo XUD with 315k done the PUG 305 van it was in went rotten though Mr2Mike said:

True mike ive seen them hanging out the front by the oil filter.Gassing Station | Engines & Drivetrain | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
