Peugeot 206 HDI

[Teknofear]

Hi abers i have an peugeot hdi 1.4 diesel engine 4 years old and i have had it for about 2 months, i wondered if 73.ooo miles is high, but as is diesel most people have told me it will last longer as it is a diesel????
Im not usually a stupid person but im getting confused by all the different things i get told about diesels, can somebody plse confuse me a bit more about diesels and how robust (or not) they are??
also can anybody tell me what "H" in HDI stands for as i cannot see the abbreviation for it anywhere in instr. manuals etc.

Average mileage for any cars is around 12,000 a year as we don't know how old your cars is we cannot tell you.

Diesels are just as robust as petrol though it depends on servicing.

Car makers make up the letters to make the car seem a better buy, some mean something, some don't, but the D&I are on all diesels.

Hi toureman i appreciate your reply but i did put down the age as 4 years old as i did in the first line, and as i said i just wanted to know wot the H stood for as i know the di means direct injection/diesel injection.
thanks again.

the HDI acronym probably stands for high diesel injection
