engine

[chris citro]

can any one tell me how to find out what an engine is for . it is a new engine . it has an oil filter with the part number on it is 9637464280. and a bar code on the engine is 030 030113665.

Errr... Slightly confusing question, without any background to it...

Where are you seeing this engine and what is your interest in it?

Do you have any pics of it?

[chris citro]

when trying to clear a little bit more of citronut workshop .
i found it in a corner under a shalf unit. i am citronuts wife.
if i can find out what it fits . i can sell it.
if i can pull iit out from under shalf unit i could take pics of it

Is it on a pallet and wrapped in polythene?
If so then Malcolm mentioned it several times over the past few years and I will try and find a reference to it.

I had a quick search , and it appears that Citronut had a TUD5 (Saxo/106/Bipper?) diesel engine, brand new, on a pallet.

I quote from his post :"but i do have a brand new OE old stock TUD5 lump still on the pallet it came from the factory on, this is not a re/coned unit and it is for sale at the right price "..

There is a list of applicable cars for the TUD5 at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSA_TU_en ... 3_.26_TUD5

Besides a number of applications in the PSA Group's supermini models (AX, Saxo, 106) and Citroën Xsara, it was sold to other automakers who did not possess small diesel engines, such as India's Maruti who installed it in their Esteem and the Rover Metro from 1993 until the end of production in 1997. It also powered the diesel version of the second generation of the Nissan Micra in Europe, which wasn't sold in the UK.

Excellent work guys

[chris citro]

thank you to you all . well done for that .
it dose sound like it . i think i should look in malcolm old post ,i might find other infor i might need .
i have just got to decide how much to sell it for now

[demag]

If it's brand new it will be worth a bit. Don't get giving it away for peanuts. I should imagine recon engines are £600-800?

[wurlycorner]

I think that would be very optimistic Dave... Value is relevant to demand and how long you want to hold onto the goods.
I'd be amazed if there's someone out there prepared to spend £600 (plus labour for fitting) to keep a diesel 106/saxo on the road...

You might (after checking freight rates) consider advertising it in France, where old, small diesel cars are more valuable, and more actively maintained.

Seem to be a few SH ones on ebay about the £150 mark - no idea if they are selling. Last use of this engine was maybe 12+ years ago? Sadly it's probably not worth much more than scrap. It might be worth going onto one of the Saxo / 106 sites (if any are still active!) and putting a post up; otherwise stick it on e-bay for £99 no reserve and see where that takes it.

Before doing that I'd suggest giving it a start price of £250 Richard she can always drop it later if it gets no bids. If I was nearer I'd punt £250 on it and sit tight on it until a buyer came along, I'd guess that was her husband's intention.

[chris citro]

thank you for all your suggest. I think i will start it for around £250 .And see what happens .
malcolm just used buy citroen parts if he saw them for a good price .and old stock from the local citroen dealers .Some he used in his workshop ,he would sell the other things on ebay or at citroen events.

[chris citro]

now on ebay
