1.9 205 GTI engine sump question
nick205 - 23/12/16 at 12:39 PM

Afternoon all,

Looked on the web, but can't find anything definitive.

Does anyone know whether the 205 1.9 GTI (XU9JA) engine oil sump has a baffle plate of any kind?

On the car I still have I'm looking to do some service work over Xmas. I'm hoping to extract the oil via the dipstick tube.

Thanks,
Nick


ETA...might even look to do a cam belt change too!

Not by the looks of it

And people make them which points to another no.
PEUGEOT 205 / 309 GTI ENGINE OIL SUMP BAFFLE 1.6 / 1.9

Not unless one has been fitted. They are quite prone to oil surge if used hard on sticky tyres, so Peugot Talbot Sport made a competition sump baffle for it.

Thank you gents, the answer I was hoping for.

I was aware of the oil surge issue (particularly with the Mi16 engine) had seen aftermarket sumps. Mine is factory standard so I should be fine.

A shame really as I can't drive it anyway, but that's no reason not to look after it.
