C5 HDI engine type?

Post by HDI »

Would the 173 BHP (or PS possibly) HDI engine in a 2009 C5 VTR be a twin turbo unit? If so, are there any particular issues with it?

I think the 173 is the twin turbo. I haven't heard of any complaints about it. I have the early 2.2 single turbo and so far its a nice smooth engine.
