Opel / Vauxhall

1.7l Diesel

A17DT / A17DTC / A17DTE

The Opel/Vauxhall 1.7 CDTi is a 1686 cc diesel straight-4 originally designed by Isuzu. The Isuzu 4EE1 1.7-liter was chosen and developed into the “Circle L” family of engines, also known as the 4EE2. For reasons of economy, GM and Isuzu chose not to make an engine from scratch, but rather evolved the new engine from an existing base.

The engine kept the same dimensions as the Isuzu 1.7 4EE1. The main differences are in the DOHC and direct injection. The first engines mounted a simple direct injection and met the Euro 3 standard, while the later engines met Euro 4 and used common rail injection. These were the first engines of this sort used by Opel & Vauxhall. These engines are particularly important for Opel/ Vauxhall since they were fitted to their best-selling models. Moreover, thanks to their great fuel economy and reduced emissions, Circle L engines were integrated into the family of Ecotec engines. Later Circle L engines became part of the Ecoflex family.

The A17DTC is the second diesel engine in the Opel/Vauxhall range to be included in the EcoFlex range (the first was a 1.3 Multijet engine from Fiat). Introduced in 2008, is based on the Z17DTJ engine developed simultaneously, and is characterized by a reduction of friction of the moving parts in order to optimize the thermal efficiency and meet the stricter Euro 5 standard.

Vehicle of the Month

Renault

Clio IV 2012-2021

The Clio IV was introduced at the September/ October 2012 Paris Motor Show. It is available in hatchback body style and starting from early 2013 also as an estate, although not in the UK. The Clio IV is only available with five doors, with “hidden” rear door handles near the windows. Another notable difference from the previous generation is the wheelbase, which has been significantly extended and is now near to the one of a compact car. The length and the width have also been increased, but less significantly.

The range of petrol engines consists of three options: a 1.2-litre 16 valve straight-4 engine, with a maximum power output of 75 hp (56 kW), a turbocharged 0.9-litre 12 valve straight-3 engine, developing 90 hp (67 kW), which can have a CO2 emission level of 99 g/km and a 1.2 liter turbocharged engine which produces 120 hp. A turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine, capable of producing 197 hp (147 kW), will be featured on the Renault Sport version.

The Renault Clio looks great and is reasonably cheap to run, but it can’t quite match up to the best in the supermini sector, including the Ford Fiesta, Volkswagen Polo and Skoda Fabia.
