A work colleague of mine has just bought a 1999 T reg Peugeot 306 1.9 Non-turbo Diesel. I understand that the engine in his isn't the 1905cc XUD engine i.e like the one in my 1994 L reg 306 and is the later 1868cc engine.
I have been wondering what the difference is between these two different engines other than a slight difference in size, could anyone please give me a bit of info as I'm interested to find out.
Thanks

I have a 99T 306, and its handbook mentions only the two versions of the 1905cc and the 1998 HDi. However the Haynes manual for that year, although not covering the HDi, does mention the XUD7, which is the 1769cc engine originally fitted to the 205, tho I have never heard of it fitted in the 306. The main difference seems to be 80mm bore instead of 83mm.

The HDI unit is turbo'd and I dont think it was fitted untill late 1999 V reg onwards. The non turbo unit mentioned is 1905cc XUD9 engine.

The 306 was only ever fitted with the 1905 XUD or the 1998 HDi
XUD is either turbo or NA and HDi is a common rail injection turbo'd lump.
1769cc was fitted in the 205 and 309 in turbo or NA versions (engine was also used in Rover 200/400 series)

The only other change I know of in the 306 XUD was to the turbo about 96N, when they started fitting 2-way cats. And in reply to Matt A, my 99T 306 is one of the first HDis (August) but letter T isn't listed in the price guides.
