- 1.6 THP timing-chain and carbon issuesSerious
High risk of chain stretch and intake carbon build-up.
- Electric Power Steering (EPAS) FailureSerious
The electrically-assisted steering column can develop intermittent faults or fail completely, causing heavy steering. This is a well-known PSA Group issue across multiple models of this era.
- DPF Clogging on HDi DieselsModerate
The 1.6 and 2.0 HDi engines are prone to DPF blockage, particularly if used predominantly for short urban journeys. A blocked filter triggers limp mode and can cascade into turbo and injector damage.
