    >
    > The French PSA Group introduced for the first time a six cylinder
    > diesel engine to its Peugeot HDi 607 automobile. The 2.7 liter V6
    > engine has been developed under the cooperative program between PSA
    > Peugeot CitroÎn and Ford in the Jaguar development center in Whitley,
    > UK. The same engine was earlier introduced in the Jaguar S-Type model
    > (see DieselNet Update - June 2003).
    >
    > The V6, Euro 4 engine has a capacity of 2,720 cm3 and produces 150 kW
    > at 4,000 rpm. The maximum torque of 440 Nm is produced at 1,900 rpm.
    > According to PSA and Ford, it is the industry-first engine using
    > compacted graphite iron (CGI) technology instead of the conventional
    > cast iron block.
    >
    > The engine features a piezoelectric common rail injection system
    > operating at pressures up to 1,650 bar. Six injection events are
    > possible: two pre-injections to control noise, two main injections,
    > and two post-injections for the regeneration of the diesel particulate
    > filter. The engine is equipped with two variable geometry
    > turbochargers. The engine's electronic control module receives input
    > from 23 sensors and sends instructions to 20 actuators to manage the
    > engine operation.
    >
    > The engine is equipped with the newest "maintenance-free" version of
    > the Peugeot diesel particulate filter, which can be operated without
    > maintenance for a period of 200,000 km. The filter utilizes the Ibiden
    > "octosquare" substrates, where the octagonal inlet channels are larger
    > than the outlet channels, to provide increased ash storage capacity.
    > The filter utilizes the Eolys cerium/iron additive by Rhodia for
    > regeneration.
    >
    > Peugeot 607--launched in May 2000, with a 2.2 liter 4-cylinder engine-
    > -was the fist modern diesel car to be equipped with a particulate
    > filter. Since that time, about 900,000 filter systems have been sold
    > in various models of Peugeot diesel engines. The first version of the
    > system required maintenance (washing from ash) every 80,000 km.
