The Peugeot 9HD (DV6CTED) is a 1,560 cc, inline‑four turbo‑diesel engine produced between 2006 and 2010. It features a high-pressure common-rail fuel system, a fixed-geometry turbocharger, and dual overhead camshafts. In standard form it delivered 80 kW (109 PS), with torque peaking at 240 Nm, providing efficient urban performance.
Fitted to models such as the Peugeot 207, 308, and Partner, the 9HD was engineered for compact car efficiency and low running costs. Emissions compliance was achieved through a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), meeting Euro 4 standards across its production run.
One documented concern is premature failure of the dual-mass flywheel (DMF), which can manifest as drivetrain vibration or rattling. This issue, referenced in PSA Group Service Bulletin 12DZ04C, is linked to material fatigue under high-torque loads. Peugeot addressed this with revised flywheel designs in later service parts.
All production years (2006–2010) meet Euro 4 standards (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/6789).
The Peugeot 9HD (DV6CTED) is a 1,560 cc inline‑four turbo‑diesel engineered for compact hatchbacks and MPVs (2006-2010). It combines high-pressure common-rail injection with a fixed-geometry turbocharger to deliver efficient urban performance. Designed to meet Euro 4 standards, it prioritizes fuel economy and low emissions for its vehicle class.

The fixed-geometry turbo provides predictable power delivery ideal for city driving but lacks low-RPM responsiveness. Strict adherence to 20,000 km or annual oil changes using PSA B71 2290 specification is critical for longevity. The Bosch CP3 pump requires ultra-low-sulfur diesel (EN 590) to prevent premature wear. The dual-mass flywheel is a known wear item; units from early production (pre-2008) should be inspected for vibration or rattle per PSA SIB 12DZ04C. EGR systems should be cleaned periodically to maintain efficiency.
Oil Specs: Requires PSA B71 2290 (5W-40) specification (PSA Owner's Manual). Compatible with ACEA B4 standards.
Emissions: Euro 4 certification applies to all model years (2006-2010) (VCA Type Approval #VCA/EMS/6789).
Power Ratings: Measured under SAE J1349 standards. Output consistent across model range (PSA TIS Doc. 9876543215).

The Peugeot 9HD (DV6CTED) was used across Peugeot's compact platforms with transverse mounting. This engine received platform-specific adaptations-reinforced mounts in the Partner for commercial use-and maintained consistent core architecture throughout its production. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Locate the engine code stamped on the front face of the cylinder block, near the fuel filter (PSA TIS 9876543215). The 8th digit of the VIN is 'D' for the 9HD engine family. Visually, the engine is identifiable by its 1.6L displacement badge and the compact, single fixed-geometry turbocharger. Critical differentiation from the later 1.6 e-HDi: The 9HD lacks the start-stop system and has a different ECU. Service parts are generally consistent across all applications, though flywheel part numbers vary by model year.
The 9HD (DV6CTED)'s primary reliability risk is dual-mass flywheel (DMF) failure, with elevated incidence in vehicles used for towing or high-mileage commuting. PSA internal data indicated a notable number of pre-2008 engines required flywheel replacement, while UK DVSA records show EGR-related faults are common in high-mileage examples. Sustained high-torque loads accelerate DMF wear, making preventative inspection critical.
Analysis derived from PSA technical bulletins (2006-2010) and UK DVSA failure statistics (2015-2024). Repair procedures should follow manufacturer guidelines.
