Engine Options:
Likely includes petrol (1.1L TU1, 1.4L ET3, 1.6L TU5) and diesel (1.4L HDi, 1.6L HDi) variants.
Horsepower Range:
Approximately 60 HP to 110 HP depending on engine.
Torque Range:
Approximately 95 Nm to 240 Nm depending on engine.
Fuel Injection Type:
Multi-point fuel injection (MPI) for petrol, Common Rail Diesel Injection (CRDi) for diesel.

8HX (1.4 HDi), 9HX (1.4 HDi 70), 9HY (1.4 HDi 75)
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 20,000 km or 1 year, whichever comes first (check manual for specific engine/oil type).
Timing Belt Replacement:
Crucial for petrol engines (e.g., 1.1L, 1.4L, 1.6L TU/ET engines), often around 120,000 km or 10 years. Diesel HDi engines may use a timing chain or belt depending on specific variant.
Engine Oil Spec:
Likely API SN/CF or ACEA A3/B4, viscosity typically 5W-40 or 0W-30 (refer to manual for specific engine).
Coolant Spec:
Antifreeze/coolant concentrate, typically based on ethylene glycol, meeting PSA (Peugeot Citroën) specifications (e.g., Type D).
Brake Fluid Spec:
DOT 4 (or DOT 3, confirm with manual).
Transmission Fluid Manual:
Gear oil, typically 75W-80 or 75W-90 GL-4.
Common Issue 1:
EGR valve clogging (especially on diesel engines).
Common Issue 2:
Front suspension component wear (e.g., ball joints, bushings).
Common Issue 3:
Water ingress into the cabin, particularly around the windscreen or door seals.
Common Issue 4:
Electrical gremlins, sometimes related to grounding points or specific sensors.
