mk2 ph1 1.9dti

[Russ.]

anybody know the spec on these? just had a play with one down a bit of dual carrigeway and tbh i was expecting it to have to advantage over my little 1.2 but there was pretty much nothing in it. speeds ranging from 0-80, 50-90, all of which i kept infront suprisingly

Pretty much the same as the 1.2 16v baring torque obviously, its an old school mechanical injection diesel afaik so its nothing on the modern diesels.

Bout the same as our 1.2's russ v.similar performance

110hp and rare.
Some people (even Renault support) didn't think Renault made any.

Remapable to about 130hp.

I didn't until I saw one a few months back.

130bhp that's quite impressive

Isn't that the 1.9 dCi engine ? Thought they only put them in the mk2 ph2s and there v.rare, there mentioned in the manual though.

130bhp, torque of a diesel and weight of a clio would make for a very quick clio.

this was the old 1.9 diesel jobbie, thought it must have been normally aspirated as it was pretty slugish really for its engine size. looked in great nick though.

Nope the 1.9 dci was never put in the Clio (well there a Renault V6 phase 1 with one in but that doesn' count. The Phase 2 only ever got the 1.5 dci engine in it.

There was a 1.9 N/A model made for the Mk2 pahse 1 which had 80hp. The dci 65 was supposed to be a replacment for the N/A one and the dci 80 a replacment for the 110

Ahh right, parkers are wrong then as they quote the 1.9D at 65bhp and the 1.9dTi at 80.

Would make for quite a quick motor then, when I was at college in doncaster there used to be a gal that had one. If it was one of these then it'd make for a right little sleeper.

I'll have to check again thinking about it 65hp from the 1.9 sounds normal not 80.

Ok edit what I said earier.
The Mk1 phase 1 came with the 1.9 N/A which had 65hp and with a 1.9 turbo diesel which had 80hp. The 110hp model was made though and stuck in some cars.
