I have searched the forums and googled every reference I can think of to find out how to get access to the rear timing solenoid on the 1.2 Pure Tech engine. On my 2015 308, the access to the back of the engine is soooo tight, I can't figure out how to get to the 3293 posts · Joined 2015. #2 · Nov 20, 2021. One of the known problem with the 1.2 Purecrap engine. The timing belt replacement interval has also been reduced since your vehicle was built / service book printed. Peugeot are currently on generation 4 timing belts for these engines. A 2013 would have had the 1st generation wet timing belt. In the end I conceded I could find no evidence for them being a significant problem. Anecdotally I have an old Citroën that is pretty reliable and I see plenty of 15+ year old Citroën where I live. Some cars do have known issues like rust (MX-5) or particular problems (early ecoboost, rover k series engines etc.) Popular posts on the C3 forum. Citroen C3 Central locking stopped working!

This is not new and seems to have started with the Ford 1.8TDCI engine as a timing belt, but the Peugeot predates the ford in using a wet belt but to drive the fuel pump. Ford and PSA have collaborated to create a bunch of shared engines in the past so the connection is quite natural.
4. Engine block problems. The block is made of aluminum which is OK. But it experiences a lot of pressure because getting 137 horsepower from 1.2 liters of displacement is not a joke. So, the wear of the cylinder block, pistons, piston rings, rod bearings, crank, and camshafts will be very intensive.
The origin of this problem is linked to the rapid degradation of the oil, mainly on vehicles used little (less than 15,000 km) and mostly for urban use. In this context of use, the 1.2 PureTech engine is subject to oil dilution, i.e. fine droplets of unburned fuel flow along the cylinder wall and mix in the lower crankcase.
