I dont think there is a 90 bhp in the 1600 hdi.. any way there should be two large air hoses either going to each side of the radiator or to the top and bottom of a small radiator to the side of the water radiator.. one of the hoses passes between the engine and gearbox under the pair.. if thats there its a 110... but as above i guess all 1600 hdi are 110....

Hi the V5 should have the power rating in KW and you can convert with google.

Get it diagnosed ASAP, all these cars can develop extra problems if ran in limp home 4 too long.
The turbo boost is needed to keep everything clean.
