nissan almera 2.2'dci DPF

Nissan almera 2.2 dci?
Hi guys
looking at purchasing these i need to know wether these have a DPF the car in question is a 2005. What else should i look out for.

thanks
 
Hi, no these cars come without DPF. There are two 2.2 dci models out there, 112PS and the 136PS, which one are you planing to buy? 136PS model had some issues with turbo failure and more rarely suction valve problems. Obviously check the body condition, crossmember is likely to rust, around rear windshield too. There's a great resource thread just not sure if you have to be paid member to view it.
 
thanks for your reply,

yeah it is the 136 ps version i want. How do i check if the turbo is on its way out.

cheers
 
Take the intake pipe off (two bolts) and feel for excessive play in the shaft (<1mm).

And loud whine or lots of black smoke from exhaust even after warmed up can be a sign too. Small whine (just audible) is normal.

All 2.2 DCi 136 have the same turbo so Im afraid it's not date specific.
 
If you buy a standard turbo, yes. A reliable upgrade is available from either Turbo Technics or TDi Turbos.
