2.2 MultiJet / BlueHDi (Stellantis) engine: faults and reliability

Stellantis 2.2 MultiJet 3 / 2.2 BlueHDi (Ducato, Boxer, Jumper, Movano; 2019 en adelante) · Fiat, Peugeot, Citroën, Opel and Toyota

The 2.2 diesels of Stellantis's large vans (BlueHDi DW12 in the Boxer, Jumper and Movano; Multijet 3 in the Ducato) are recent engines with no fault statistics of their own. What is documented are campaigns: AdBlue and SCR software, and the fuel return pipe on 2024-2025 units, with a fire risk. Long-term history is missing.[1][2][3][4][5]

What the 2.2 MultiJet / BlueHDi (Stellantis) is

Under the "2.2" label there are two different large-van diesels. The 2.2 BlueHDi (DW12 RU, 120, 140 and 165 hp, Euro 6d) replaced the 2.0 BlueHDi in the Peugeot Boxer and Citroën Jumper in 2019, and the 2021 Opel Movano C uses a 2.2 diesel of 88 to 121 kW. The 2.2 Multijet 3 (2,184 cc, 120, 140, 160 and 180 hp, Euro 6d-Final) arrived in the Fiat Ducato in 2021 as a new engine, in place of Iveco's 2.3; Autopos states that it is not a revision of the DW12 and German-language Wikipedia derives it from the 2.2 of the Jeep Wrangler.[6][7][8][9][15]

The split is not that clean. Techni and English-language Wikipedia place a DW12 version in the Ducato from April 2023, and since 2024 the Ducato, Boxer, Jumper, Movano and Toyota Proace Max use the 2,184 cc 2.2 in Euro 6e form, with 120, 140 and 180 hp; German-language Wikipedia calls it Multijet4. The 160 hp Ducato was withdrawn in 2022 and returned to the range in 2026 for motorhomes.[7][16][17][18]

According to Autopos, the 2.2 Multijet 3 is an in-line four-cylinder with a cast-iron block, aluminium head, 16 valves, twin overhead camshafts, timing belt and turbo, with a DOC, particulate filter, SCR with AdBlue and high- and low-pressure EGR. For the Ducato 2.2 H3-Power, Haynes gives a belt change every 144,000 km or 60 months in normal use and every 60,000 km or 36 months in severe use.[8][14]

It is a recent engine and open information is scarce: a German motorhome guide admits there is no reliable long-term data on the 2.2 Multijet 3, and the ADAC includes the Ducato registered in 2021 and 2023 among the vans with the worst results in its 2025 breakdown statistics, without separating by engine. What is documented are official campaigns: the AdBlue and SCR software and, in 2026, the fuel return pipe on 2024-2025 units.[1][2][3][13]

What changed between versions

  1. 2019–2023

    2.2 BlueHDi 120/140/165 (DW12 RU, Euro 6d, Boxer and Jumper 2019-2023, Movano C 2021-2023)

    The DW12 RU is the Euro 6d version of PSA's 2.2 for vans: it replaces the 2.0 BlueHDi DW10 FU in the Citroën Jumper and Peugeot Boxer from 2019 and delivers 120 hp (300 Nm), 140 hp (340 Nm) and 165 hp (370 Nm); German-language Wikipedia gives 310 Nm for the 120 hp. The 2021 Opel Movano C uses a 2.2 diesel of 88 to 121 kW. Techni and English-language Wikipedia place a DW12 version in the Ducato from April 2023.[6][7][9][16][17]

  2. 2021–2023

    2.2 Multijet 3 H3-Power 120/140/160/180 (Ducato, Euro 6d-Final, 2021-2023)

    New 2,184 cc engine that replaced Iveco's 2.3 in the Ducato with 120, 140, 160 and 180 hp (Euro 6d-Final, with up to 7% less CO2). It has SCR with AdBlue, high- and low-pressure EGR and a timing belt, and is not a revision of PSA's DW12. German-language Wikipedia makes it a derivative of the Jeep Wrangler's 2.2 and dates the withdrawal of the 160 hp to 2022. The Ducato manual gives engine codes 46349131 (120 and 140 hp) and 46348913 (160 and 180 hp).[7][8][15][19]

  3. since 2024

    2.2 Multijet Euro 6e 120/140/160/180 (Ducato, Boxer, Jumper, Movano C and Proace Max, 2024 onwards)

    Since 2024, English-language Wikipedia places the 2,184 cc Euro 6e 2.2 with 120, 140 and 180 hp in the four Sevel vans and the Toyota Proace Max; the German edition calls it Multijet4 and reduces the automatic from nine to eight speeds. The 160 hp, withdrawn in 2022, returned to the range in 2026 for motorhomes with 380 Nm (400 Nm with the automatic).[7][17][18]
