The Peugeot HMM (EB2FAD) is a 1,199 cc, inline‑three turbocharged petrol engine produced from 2019 onwards. It features an aluminium block and head, double overhead camshafts (DOHC), and direct fuel injection. This 12‑valve unit delivers 96 kW (131 PS) and 230 Nm of torque, offering a blend of spirited performance and urban efficiency for its compact class.
Fitted to models like the Peugeot 208 and 2008, the HMM (EB2FAD) was engineered for agile city driving and relaxed hi…

Production years 2019–Present meet Euro 6d standards as per applicable EU regulations at time of manufacture (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/7789).
The Peugeot HMM (EB2FAD) is a 1,199 cc inline‑three turbocharged petrol engineered for compact hatchbacks and crossovers (2019-Present). It combines direct fuel injection with a single-scroll turbocharger to deliver responsive performance and low fuel consumption. Designed to meet Euro 6d emissions standards, it prioritises efficiency and drivability in urban and mixed driving conditions.

The Peugeot HMM (EB2FAD) was used across Peugeot's compact 208 and 2008 platforms with transverse mounting. This engine received minor ECU updates during its production run for emissions fine-tuning, though core mechanical components remained fully interchangeable. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
The HMM (EB2FAD)'s primary reliability consideration is intake valve carbon buildup, a systemic trait of direct injection petrol engines. Peugeot service documentation acknowledges this and recommends preventative cleaning, while owner data suggests it is the most frequent cause of drivability complaints after 60,000 km. Neglecting oil changes or using incorrect oil can accelerate GPF clogging, making adherence to maintenance schedules critical.
Analysis derived from Peugeot technical bulletins (2019-Present) and owner club failure statistics (compiled 2021-2024). Repair procedures should follow manufacturer guidelines.
The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The HMM is a modern, efficient engine. Its main consideration is intake valve carbon buildup, a common trait of direct injection engines. With periodic cleaning (every 60,000-80,000 km) and strict adherence to oil change intervals using the correct 0W-20 specification, these engines are very reliable. Neglecting these items can lead to performance issues and expensive repairs.
The most frequent issues are carbon buildup on the intake valves and potential clogging of the Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF). High-pressure fuel pump failures and turbocharger actuator faults are also documented, though less common. All are well-known in Peugeot service bulletins and have established repair procedures.
The HMM (EB2FAD) is used in the second-generation Peugeot 208 (2019-Present) and the second-generation Peugeot 2008 (2019-Present) as the 1.2 PureTech 130 variant. It is part of the broader EB2 engine family, which also includes 100 PS and 155 PS versions.
Yes, the HMM responds well to ECU remapping. A stage 1 remap can safely increase power to around 150-160 PS and torque to 250-270 Nm. More aggressive tuning is possible but requires careful consideration of the turbocharger and fuel system limits. Always ensure the GPF is in good condition before tuning.
Fuel economy is very good for a turbocharged petrol engine. Expect around 5.0-5.5 L/100km (56-51 mpg UK) in mixed driving for a Peugeot 208. Highway cruising can yield 4.5-5.0 L/100km (63-56 mpg UK). Consumption will increase if the GPF is clogged or if driving is predominantly urban with short trips.
Yes. The HMM (EB2FAD) is an interference engine. If the timing chain were to fail (though highly unlikely given its design), the pistons would collide with the open valves, causing severe internal engine damage. The chain is designed to last the lifetime of the engine with proper oil changes.
Peugeot specifies a 0W-20 fully synthetic oil meeting the PSA B71 2312 standard. This is a low-SAPS (Sulphated Ash, Phosphorus, Sulphur) oil specifically formulated to protect the Gasoline Particulate Filter (GPF) and ensure optimal engine performance.
