- Removing an XUD9 Turbo Diesel from a Citroen Xantia.
These old XUD engines are getting harder and harder to find but are a really good swap into a load of old PSA cars. The Xantia manifold is useful for front mount intercooler applications and in general this engine will be helpful when converting a 305 estate to turbo diesel power. This engine itself is a bit tired with 230,000 miles but a head skim and new gasket would probably see it back in service although it would need the ECU controlled pump replaced with an older purely mechanical Bosch item.

These engines were game-changers when they hit the market. Lightyears ahead of the competition - especially the boat-ballast Ford diesels of the era.
Still surpises me how smooth they run compared to even brand new diesels. My dads C220d makes a hateful racket this while its undoubtedly agricultural does have a nice characterful clatter and they do stand up to high mileages quite well
@@peugeotCitroen2CV First time I drove a colleague's Citroen ZX with non-turbo 1.9 diesel, it surprised me how refined it was. Didn't feel slow either.
@@peugeotCitroen2CV gotta love that clattering. I have a 1.9 SD, 75 HP, but i squeezed more out, should probably be 90 now. The motors pull, have great mileage, no issues whatsoever
interesting to see XUD installation in a Citroen as only familiar with Pugs
The layout of the Citroens are very similar just the added LHM pipework around the place.
Great job. I'm going to install good 2.0 HDi engine from my 99 Xantia to Partner from 2005. Partner is with broken xuD, cambelt issue. I'm going to remove motor from the Xantia soon. Probably I need some parts from Peugeot 307 and partner too. I will get them from local scrapyard. Any advice? I subscribed your channel. Thanks
Should be an easy enough swap, just try to keep as many sensors and the fuel pump from the partner engine or at least be wary of the differences.
Do not ever ever fully unscrew the pressure relief bolt... Unless you want to loose the tiny spring loaded ball at the tip of the bolt... Without this ball your hydro is dead and will not work (yep that mighty system can be killed by a 4mm ball...)
Only do 1/4 to 1/2 turn. It is enough.
Oh and on the video you can see said ball flying out. Hope you picked it up before reinstall XD
The thingy of the subframe is a safety valve that iirc make you lose steering then uspension then brake in case of a loss of pressure instead of everything at once
Ooops haha, the floor has been brushed after this.
Good job the hydraulics wont be getting used in the 305. Ill let whoever picks up these parts know the ball fell out.
@@peugeotCitroen2CV I'd remove the bolt entirely to get the point across. Not many know about the ball of doom and besides the bolt is useless as is... So...
How do you change the timing belt on these?
I have never changed one in a xantia, if you need a guide a haynes manual is a good thing to have to hand
This is the closest xud video i have but its with the engine out of the car and an older engine fitted originally to a 305

@@peugeotCitroen2CV thanks, i will look that up. The belt is verly close to the chassis. It has 130.000 kms (yes, first owner, an older gentlemen who passed away)
I have neither the time nor the patience to change the belt with the engine out lol
@@WorivpuqloDMogh
It should be doable despite looking tight, ive done the belt in a V6 xantia and C5 so the 4 pot diesel should be a bit easier
@@peugeotCitroen2CV i see. I do have a kit with the tensioner and waterpump. Is the water pump and tensioner doable?
@@WorivpuqloDMogh Yes it should all be doable in situ.
I really enjoyed this video, are you doing a video of the reinstall?
Thanks!
I will be using some bits of this engine i have another fully rebuilt XUD9 from a 405 estate going into a 1986 305 1.9 Petrol, i aim to make a fairly comprehensive video(s) of that process.
I am delighted to hear that news I am an absolute beginner with a very low mileage Peugeot 405 diesel estate which has had a xud9te unit transplanted but its using water and some air in the rad...ive tested it with a kit and it looks like the HG is passing...It has a tmic and the turbo side looks tight....no lift just ramps and axle stands!
The strange thing is that i drove it for around 1000miles...used a bit of water but went like a scalded cat? oil is clean!

The old XUD's can and did blow head gaskets back in the day, they appreciated the coolant being flushed every few years and did need to be correctly bled. A new head gasket and a skim should have that one of yours back in good health. Thats really the only major issue these engines can have and its much cheaper to fix than some of the potential issues new diesels have.
They can be quick the XUD9TE especially if the pump has been tweaked a bit.
Instablaster.
Do you have any videos on peugeot partner 1.9 dw engine? Cambelts head gasket etc.
I have two videos covering the cambelt on a DW10 2.0 HDi engine fitted to a Citroen Xsara hatchback and a Peugeot 406 both very similar they should cover the cambelt.
With regards head gaske no never had any head gasket problems with them engines, not saying it doesnt happen to them but it was a lot less common to need to do the head gasket than the XUD.
peugeotCitroen2CV thanks for reply I’m just putting the cambelt on the dw8. Is it ok to use the 90 degree twist method for tension? And is it really necessary to have to undo the sprocket bolts on the cam and injector pump to fit the belt on? I’ve undone them but it says to make sure the bolts go back through the middle of the holes but it seems impossible. It just doesn’t seem to work like that. The belt sits in fine. Surely if the bolts are nice and tight and the belt sits in the teeth good it should be ok right?
@@longclaw3844 The DW8 is very similar to the XUD and DW10.
90 degree twist method to judge the tension? Yes its an acceptable way to check the tension, i know the manuals make reference to the SEEM tension gague. I managed to get one from the french car forum but to be honest its an unnecessary complication.
Never had to touch the sprockets for the injector pump or camshaft, loosen the timing belt tensioner pulley and the belt should slip on, tighten up the tensioner after that.
peugeotCitroen2CV thanks for advice.
