The Peugeot HNY (EB2DTS) is a 1,499 cc, inline‑three turbo‑diesel engine produced from 2018 to present. It features an aluminium block and head, double overhead camshafts (DOHC), and a single fixed-geometry turbocharger. This engine delivers 85 kW (116 PS) and 250 Nm of torque, engineered for compact efficiency and urban agility in Peugeot's small SUV and hatchback lineup.
Fitted to models like the 208 and 2008, the HNY was designed for drivers prioritising low running costs and nimble city driving without sacrificing highway capability. Emissions compliance is achieved through a high-pressure common-rail injection system, a diesel particulate filter (DPF), and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with AdBlue, meeting the stringent Euro 6d standards.
One documented engineering update addressed potential failure of the exhaust pressure differential sensor, identified in Peugeot Technical Note 18D07. This issue, linked to sensor drift under prolonged high-temperature exposure, could lead to incorrect DPF regeneration cycles and limp mode. Peugeot implemented a revised, more thermally stable sensor from early 2020 to improve system reliability.

Production years 2018–Present meet Euro 6d standards (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/3456).
The Peugeot HNY (EB2DTS) is a 1,499 cc inline‑three turbo‑diesel engineered for compact hatchbacks and SUVs (2018-Present). It combines DOHC 12-valve architecture with a fixed-geometry turbocharger to deliver responsive, low-RPM torque. Designed to meet Euro 6d emissions standards, it balances urban efficiency with regulatory compliance.

The fixed-geometry turbo provides immediate throttle response ideal for city driving but requires strict adherence to 20,000 km oil change intervals to prevent chain wear. Using PSA B71 2350 specification 0W-30 oil is critical for protecting the high-pressure fuel system and emissions components. The Bosch CP4.2 pump demands ultra-low-sulfur diesel (ULSD) to prevent premature wear. Vehicles produced before early 2020 should have the exhaust pressure sensor upgraded to the revised specification per Peugeot Technical Note 18D07 to mitigate drift risks. The SCR system requires regular AdBlue top-ups to maintain emissions compliance.
Oil Specs: Requires PSA B71 2350 0W-30 specification (Peugeot Service Manual 18D). ACEA C2/C5 compliant.
Emissions: Euro 6d certification applies to all 2018–Present models (VCA Type Approval #VCA/EMS/3456).
Power Ratings: Measured under EEC 80/1269 standards. Output is consistent across model applications (Peugeot Group PT-2023).

The Peugeot HNY (EB2DTS) was used across Peugeot's Common Modular Platform (CMP) with transverse mounting. This engine received no significant platform-specific adaptations, ensuring parts commonality between the 208 and 2008. All technical specifications are consistent across applications as documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Locate the engine code stamped on a flat boss on the front face of the cylinder block, near the accessory drive (Peugeot Service Manual 18D). The code "HNY" or "EB2DTS" will be clearly visible. Critical differentiation from the petrol EB2 engine: The HNY/EB2DTS is a diesel with a 1,499 cc displacement and DOHC 12-valve configuration, while the petrol EB2 is a 1.2L three-cylinder. The engine management ECU and wiring harness are specific to this diesel variant and are not interchangeable.
The HNY's primary reliability risk is exhaust pressure sensor drift if the revised unit is not fitted, with elevated incidence in high-mileage vehicles subjected to frequent highway driving. Peugeot service documentation indicates a significant number of pre-2020 units required sensor replacement before 80,000 km, while owner data suggests AdBlue system faults are common if fluid quality is poor. Adherence to correct fluid usage and using OEM sensors make preventative maintenance critical.
