2 known faults with sources

Turbo oil starvation from injector carbonTurbo / injection

Engine / equipment: 1.6 HDi DV6 (Peugeot 207/308/3008/Partner, Citroën C3/C4/Berlingo; same engine as the Ford 1.6 TDCi)
Period mentioned: Approx. 2004–2015
Symptoms: Loud turbo whistle, power loss, blue or black smoke, oil that gets dirty very quickly. Before the failure, often a puffing or ticking from the cylinder head and an exhaust smell from an injector.
Possible cause described: The injector clamp bolts work loose, the gas leak forms carbon that gets into the oil and clogs the mesh filter in the banjo bolt feeding the turbo. The turbo is starved of oil. Replacing only the turbo does not fix it.
Check for the garage: Check injector bolt torque and carbon at their base, the turbo banjo bolt and the sump strainer.
Cost cited in the source: Turbo + full oil system cleaning: approx. €900–2,000 (estimate)A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.

Applies if: Weak points of this model from inspections, breakdown statistics and recalls; anything specific to one engine is stated in the sheet.

Engine / equipment: First and second-generation Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert and Fiat Scudo (petrol and diesel)
Period mentioned: 1995–2016
