More than likely different as many HDi's have glow plugs to heat the coolant so have alternators with a much higher output but as long as the external dimensions are the same I can't see why it can't be used. Alternatively why not look for an alternator from a Xantia, Pug 406 with the same engine?

From about '99 on but the 406 uses a diesel type auxilluary heater so don't know if the alternator is the same. If its the same size should be OK.
