Anyone know which car if any, the new T31 173 bhp Renault diesel engine (M1D) is used in the Renault car range? I have yet to see any posts indicating problems with it, or is it too soon. I looked on the Renault website to try to match it but they give almost no technical spec.

M1D Renault engine is also fitted to Nissan Qashqai but is not the 173bhp version. Don't know of any Renault models with this engine fitted

I've just searched the Renault web site and failed to find it. I do notice however that Renault boast that DPF is regenerated even at tick over speeds, unlike the Nissan sarga (long thread in the T30 area).

Greetings, having just purchased an 08 173 2L Tdi Av Exp extr, i was under the impression it was a M9R engine.
See :- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Renault_engines if you trust wiki?
or:-

as an alternative.

Pulls well, very smooth, good for a 2litre engine, great comfy drive! :biggrin:
But Co2 is better in Ford (PSA) and Mazda 170bhp , 2.2 engines.

Yeah notice the diff in CO2 emmissions on my T30 2.2 aswell, my friends 2.5 ranger is lower in VED tax somehow.....oh well ho hum, I still like my T30 more..... :thumbs:
