Peugeot DV5 (1.5 BlueHDi)
1.5 L · inline-4 · turbocharged · diesel · 2017–present
Also known as: dv5, 1.5 bluehdi, dv5rc, 1.5 hdi, yh01, bluehdi 130, f15dvh, dld-415
PSA's 1.5-litre common-rail diesel, replacing the long-running DV6 across Peugeot, Citroën, DS, Opel and Vauxhall — the current small BlueHDi engine.
It carries the same wet timing belt as the PureTech petrol, which is the most consequential thing to know about it: the belt runs in oil on a fixed interval, degrades if the specified oil is not used, and sheds material that can block the oil pump pickup. Belt failure therefore presents as oil starvation rather than as a timing complaint, and belt history is the first question on any example of unknown provenance.
The emissions stack — SCR with AdBlue, a particulate filter and cooled EGR — supplies the rest of its fault profile, with reductant quality and injector crystallisation being the modern replacements for the mechanical failures the DV6 showed. As always, a short-journey duty cycle is behind most of what these systems report.

Information, not instruction
CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.
Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:
- The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
- What you measured, not only what you replaced.
- What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
