Hello!
I just want to be sure what engine code is the engine I have.
Can anyone tell from the photo?
It's turbocharged, chain driven and without intercooler.
Cheers

Hallo andrazzz,
Il s'agit probablement d'un 8140.27 2,5 litres

Hello Andrazzz,
8140.27 is also in your own manual.
But it's not quite that simple:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sofim_8140_engine
I don't know to what extent the version with timing chain has different engine codes.

Hi,
The best way is to check the number engraved on the engine.
For exact location, look at the diagram published by "B120 Frankfurt". This number is not easy to access... If it's as difficult as the Iveco Daily (same engine), you may need to remove the alternator and possibly the exhaust manifold to see it.

Hi,
Before you break your fingers, try something like this.

Thanks to all for the quick reply.
In my vehicle registration certificate it says
8140.23
2799ccm
78kW
The manual says 2499ccm.
On some other older vehicle documents it says
2499ccm and 78kW
That's why I'm confused.
I tried to look at the code on the engine but it's quite impossible to see.
Hope someone with the same engine will see this thread
Cheers

Good morning Andrazzz,
in my perception, engines with timing chains are extremely rare at Renault.
Perhaps the owners of IVECOs can answer your question.
But I'm afraid, that there is no visible difference, and you really need to read the engine number.

Hi!
It seems I'll have to buy myself a selfie camera

I'll find one as soon as I come back home (on holiday currently).
Thanks for all the info.
Cheers

I just couldn't wait
So I tried with a torch and my phone. After many attempts I somehow got it
Not easy but doable.
It's 8140.27
Thanks everyone for your help and ideas.
Cheers
