200 tdi vs 300tdi

(1/3) > >>

diff-breaker:
Potentially am looking for a 90 but what i shte preferred engine 200tdi
or 300tdi ? What are the benefits of one over the other ?

Jim-Willy:
Very little difference.  300 is a little quieter, the 200 is thought to be a tad stronger but both are brilliant.

Digsit:
200tdi's only seem to bend pushrods when the timing belt lets go :wink:

or rockers & the 300 is the same,
+ point of the 300 is you dont have to disturb the cooling system to change the timing belt,personally id have a 200 but might b looking at a 300 for a new toy

muddyweb:
300 has a serpentine front end, which means that you get (generally) much less belt slippage, and it can handle a bigger alternator.

300 also produces a bit more torque.
