The 1.6 VTI engine, with engine code 5FW, is a four-cylinder petrol engine used across a range of Peugeot and Citroën models. It was first introduced in 2007 and is well regarded for its performance and fuel efficiency.
The 5FW engine features an aluminium cylinder block and cylinder head. It uses a DOHC (double overhead camshaft) valvetrain with four valves per cylinder, along with variable valve timing that adjusts the intake and exhaust valve timing for improved engine performance and efficiency.
With a displacement of 1.6 litres, it produces a maximum output of 120 hp (88 kW) at 6,000 rpm and peak torque of 160 Nm (118 lb-ft) at 4,250 rpm. Depending on the vehicle model, it is paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission.
The 5FW engine also features a direct injection system that delivers fuel at high pressure straight into the engine through the injector. This system provides better fuel efficiency and lower emissions compared to older fuel injection systems.
All in all, the 1.6 VTI engine with code 5FW is a reliable and efficient petrol engine that delivers strong performance and fuel economy. Its advanced features, such as variable valve timing and direct injection, make it a popular choice for drivers who value performance and efficiency.

Which cars does this engine fit?
Engine code 5FW was fitted to models including: 308, 5008, RCZ, C3, C5, DS3, DS4. The list is indicative — the same engine may also have been used in other models from the same manufacturer.
Always check your own engine code before ordering. The same displacement and the same model name can mean a different engine in a different model year, and only the code tells you for certain which engine the car has.
Where do I find the engine code?
The engine code is usually in one of three places:
- The registration document — under engine type or engine number.
- The engine itself — cast or stamped into the block, often at the gearbox end or under the cover.
- A workshop — a garage reads the code from your VIN in the manufacturer’s catalogue in a couple of minutes.
If you cannot find the code, send us the VIN and the registration number with your enquiry and we will look it up for you.
