Citroen / Peugeot 1.4 / 1.6 HDi - Turbos #

Posted by Sean Savage on December 17, 2012, 5:08 pm

Year of Manufacture *: any

This isnt a sales pitch guys.

I have no doubt you are very familiar with the cit/pug/focus/volvo 1.4 and 1.6 hdi engines that blow turbo's for fun due to the stupid design of the tiny micro filter in the banjo oil feed pipe that blocks up regular due to these been a very dirty engine. citreon have aknowleged this fault and say the only cure is another engine.
We did numerous ones of these which have blown the new turbo very shortly after fitting the new one. due to this i have now specialy made a new turbo oil feed pipe of high quality braded steel and a cleanable bailey inline (much larger) turbo oil filter. these are made to fit this engine perfectly and it takes less than 10 minuted to clean the filter. i get all my customers to come back every 100 miles to clean and monitor filter blockage. all existing banjo bolts are used just remove the tiny original filters out of the bolts. i wont do one of these jobs now without the customer having one of these pipes fitted. i would attach pictures but dont know how to on here so if anyone wants to save themselves the usual headache with these just email me and i will send you pictures etc. My local turbo centre is buying them like they are going out of fasion.

Hi Sean interesting reading your post I am having a big disputes with customer now after fitting 3 of these turbos to his vechicle they seem to last around 3000 to 5000 miles we removed sump cleaned oil strainer out which was clogged heavily flushed system fit new oil pipes and are still having problems i think wrong oil has been put in engine at some point and caused to congeal and now has carbon deposits floating around system trying to get this through to customer is prooving very difficult, i have advised him he will need a new engine he thinks it is something we are doing wrong and even accused us of fitting second hand units I think i am gonna bight the bullet and refund his money and tell him not to come back as i am loosing sleep now thinking about this job as you will probably see by the time of this post.

it would be intresting to see your images of your modifications as i think this is going to be a common fault to come due to engine design you can contact me on 01461 338900 or email crosswaysgarage@aol.com thanks

Malcolm

i have attached image of oil strainer picture is not to clear but it was badly blocked with carbon deposits.

Hi all.
I purchased one of these from Sean. I'm convinced it has saved my customer a lot of money.
I kept checking it every 300 miles for the first few weeks. There was some carbon found in the strainer the first few times but it has been less and less as time marches on.
The original strainer is very small so would definitely be blocked now.
I followed these instuctions (https://www.assuredperformance.ie/assets/images/Presentation-1.6-hdi-carbo-issues.pdf) nearly to the letter.
After all the cleaning carbon was still coming through. Thankfully Sean's strainer stopped it from reaching the turbo.
I would reccomend this product to anyone.
Regards.

Hi Sean,

Sorry so bloody busy! Yes pipe fitted to customers Mini 1.6D and checked after initial road test no contamination but we are having it back after 150 miles to check again and will asses from there.

I would recommend this mod to anyone fitting a turbine to one of these PSA engined cars the OE pipe is £50 so £100 for the modded pipe with the ability to check and re-clean until your happy it's carbon free is a must it is a quality item and Sean gets it to you next day.

I must stress though it's belt and braces to cover yourself from fitting another turbo for nowt but you must still remove sump replace pick up pipe, inlet off etc., etc.

Cheers Sean

Rob

Bailey are currenlt totally out of stock of the filters i use (i have used them all i think). i have just had a new filter delivered today which is the same filter but instead of having 2 male ends it has 1 male 1 female so i have just been up to the pipe manufacturer this lunchtime to sort things out with the pipes. currently 6 on order but dont expect them ready until middle of next week. Same set up as old pipes but with 2 small adaptors screwed onto the filters.

Hi

If a turbo going pop during or straight after fitting is a concern there is a turbo company in Huddersfield called Direct2Garage Turbos.

They give a 30-day guarantee (if the turbo goes pop in 30 days you'll get a free replacement) over that their is a two year warranty.

It's decent quality stuff as they're Borg Warner and Holset authorised distributors but they have the Garrett 1.6 HDi units in stock.

Might be of help

Sean Savage

So if the turbo fails due to oil starvation they will still replace the turbo within a month??!!! No offence but i dont think any company is going to replace something that has failed when its down to other influencing factors and not the item supplied. these usually fail again after about 2 to 3000 miles.

Steven Hunt

Yes! they'll replace no matter what - but only within 30 days. After that you're into a standard 24 month warranty (and replace it only once)

Like you say there's so many different things influencing whether these this fail. And obviously no one fits a turbo wrong on purpose. So the guarantee is to give the garage a break if anything does go wrong to get the car back to the customer asap with as little hassle as possible.

Give them a call on 0845 4500 300 they're based in Huddersfield.

""They give a 30-day guarantee (if the turbo goes pop in 30 days you'll get a free replacement) over that their is a two year warranty.""

That is hard to believe isn't it!

How many times have we all seen a turbo fail within hours of start up, due to ingestion of solid matter that remains in the intake after the previous failure? Or the other one, where the fitter has neglected to verify suitable oil feed & return characteristics.

Unconditionally guaranteeing a turbo for 30 days, regardless of the fitters shortcomings? It sounds like business suicide to me!

I had better place an order soon!

We have just fixed a fault on a 04 1.4 206 we could communicate with everything bar the ecu.What we found with ours was a broken wire from the bsi unit in the engine bay. There is a loom that comes out and goes down through the inner wing and up into the engine area.We disconnected it and pulled it down through the hole so we could pull on the wires and a couple were corroded through and came apart.

Hi all

Just some feed back regarding the feed pipe that Sean supplies. Had a turbo job to do, did the jobs to the engine regarding the carbon. Fitted new turbo with modified pipe, the pipe fits a treat and very easy to get the filter out later to clean it. Let customer do 200 miles and had it back in to clean the filter, there was a little bit of carbon specs in the filter, cleaned the filter and refitted job done. I have a few customers with these engines might see what they think about replacing the feed pipe anyway. Every time I service them I can clean out the filter and monitor the carbon build up. Very good part glad I put it on, thanks Sean.

Regards Jamie

BACK IN STOCK

after been unable to source any filters for the pipes I make I have now sorted out new stock. I have been out of stock for over 2 months and I know numerous people on here we're wanting some pipes.
I now have stock again and a deal to get another bulk batch of filters made for me.
So should be ok for a while now guys if you need any.
