Injector Seals

Post by maverick54 »

Need to replace a couple of injector seals on my 1.6 Bluehdi Grand Picasso

Been looking on the auction sites and there are plenty listed for the older HDI engines but none of them mention that they are suitable for the Bluehdi.

Can anyone confim if they are the same seals please before I jump in and buy a set?

Thank you

It will be down to the specific engine not whether it's an HDi or Blue HDi - that's just a designation for later vehicles with greater emission controls like the SCR system being added.

I appreciate you have just joined, but bear in mind PSA charge us for their official parts data, so if you can't already find the info you need on the Forum, we do ask for a membership upgrade for official parts data as we are in turn charged for this. It will cover you for future parts requests for up to 2 years, so excellent value.

If interested, links are below, then pop your VIN up.

Wow. I read this on the front page of your forum and thought I'd join as it appeared a friendly place:

'This Forum is run completely independently, on a non-commercial basis and is hosted and maintained by a group of volunteers for the benefit of French Car enthusiasts Worldwide'

1st post and your asking for money. Other car forums have members that are happy to share their knowledge for free and many members myself included upgrade to a paid subscription when we feel the forum is worth supporting as it has given us a fair bit of free help and now we are happy to pay a bit to help support it.

Bang your straight in there, Not the sort of forum I would want to be a member of. Feel free to delete my acoount as I wont be back.

We are happy to share any knowledge we already have but if it's something that needs access to the genuine PSA parts database (sadly, quite often) then, as Marc says, that costs us.

I suspect you've already gone and this is falling on barren ground but I could not let this go unanswered.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

As I suspected, left straight away and, unless he logged out, hasn't been back since.

We've had this at least once before and while we might say that the OP is being a bit over-sensitive maybe we shouldn't introduce the possibility of having to pay quite so early on or so bluntly??
