📖Citroën Evasion II: modernized HDi power for the turn of the millennium

Citroen Evasion II (Phase 2) (1999-2002)

Introduced in 1999 under the U6U designation, the Phase 2 Evasion brought refined exterior restyling and modernised common-rail powertrains to Citroën’s flagship people carrier. Maintaining the versatile Type 2 platform shared across the Eurovan alliance, consistent Citroën Evasion maintenance preserves its spacious three-row practicality and relaxed touring manners.

The headline mechanical upgrade was PSA’s 2.0 HDi (DW10) common-rail turbo diesel, offering superior fuel economy and refined torque compared to older indirect-injection diesels. However, the first-generation high-pressure fuel pump and common-rail injectors are vulnerable to contaminated diesel, demanding clean filters and prompt attention to cold-start hesitation.

Long-term reliability hinges on timely replacement of the cambelt kit every 90,000 km or 6 years. Furthermore, aging bodies require regular attention to sliding side door tracks, underbody corrosion along chassis outriggers and rear brake compensator linkages to pass annual MOT roadworthiness tests.

Owner notes

The reassuring points, known weak spots and deadlines you should not let slip.

Reassuring points

Reliability
  • The 2.0 HDi engine delivers significantly enhanced cruising refinement and lower fuel consumption than earlier TD units.
  • Practical Eurovan cabin packaging with removable seats and vast luggage capacity remains deeply versatile.
  • Simple electrical architecture and common PSA parts keep general servicing accessible and affordable.

Chronic weak spots

Keep an eye on
  • 2.0 HDi high-pressure fuel pump: sensitive to contaminated fuel; diagnose poor starting, rough idling or rail pressure drops.
  • 2.0 HDi cambelt: strictly observe replacement intervals every 90,000 km or 6 years including the water pump.
  • Sliding side door mechanisms: inspect, clean and lubricate upper, middle and lower roller guides annually to prevent track binding.
  • Underbody corrosion: check sills, floorpans and rear subframe mounting points on vehicles exposed to road salt.
  • Auxiliary belt crankshaft pulley: inspect rubber harmonic damper for separation, squealing or rhythmic rattling.

Critical deadlines

Do not miss
  • Renew the cambelt kit and water pump every 90,000 km or 6 years without compromise to safeguard the DW10 valvetrain.
  • Replace the diesel fuel filter every 20,000 km to shield the delicate high-pressure common-rail pump from abrasives and moisture.
  • Lubricate sliding door tracks and check latch cables at every annual inspection to avoid costly mechanical failure.
  • Flush engine coolant every 4 years to prevent heater matrix silting and maintain consistent operating temperatures.
