Lee,

If your 406 is a turbo D it will have an intercooler. It's located in front of the radiator - you can't miss the mass of air trunking running all over the engine bay!

There was a Xantia SD which used a turbo charged non intercooled version of the XUD 1.9 engine, but don't know if there was also a Peugeot version.

Is it illogical? It must be Citroen....
