Is the XN6 an interference engine or not? I do not remember if this was
ever asked/ answered on the list.
Jim, how about compiling a list of all Peugeot engines whether
interference or not.
For those who do not know what the term means, it's an interference
engine if after the timing belt or chain breaks, the valves hit the
pistons causing extensive damage. I know that the 405 Mi16 (high
compression) is an interference engine from talking to an owner who had
it happen to him, he needed new valves . I believe the 405 DL (low
compression) is not an interference engine. I would guess the XN6 is a
non interference engine because it is a low compression engine.
