On the 110 there is a second air pipe running over the top of the engine on the RHS of the outlet from the air box.

Is that a 2.0 turbo Petrol rather than an HDI (CT / Activa)?

Well a main dealer should know from the VIN, & engine number as to what engine is fitted.

Although the quickest way is just by looking under the bonnet, as mentioned above on the previous posts, and checking as to wether or not there is an intercooler pipe fitted.

The picture above posted by RichardW shows the 110 BHP HDI with the two pipes fitted.

While the picture below shows the 90 BHP HDI which only has one pipe fitted.

So, there is no need to resort to the paperwork, numbers, or the main dealer, it's something you can work out for yourself, just by looking under the bonnet.

thanks for that, i just bought another 110 hdi but i was a bit dubious it wasn't the original engine as it's on the register (the car), both logbook (RHZ) and car confirm it's a 110 so that'll do nicely
