From 2010 to 2018, the company produced the 1.6-liter Peugeot EP6CB or 5FK engine, which was limited to a few iterations of the Peugeot Partner and the second generation Citroen Berlingo. According to some sources, a motor that has been modified to meet Euro 6 environmental standards has the EP6F index.
The Prince family of atmospheric engines includes the EP3, EP3C, EP6, EP6C, and EP6CB.

Disadvantages of the EP6CB engine
Even though the EP6C engine has been significantly simplified, there are still enough issues with it.
A small resource, typically less than 100,000 km, distinguishes the timing chain and its tensioner.
An oil burner is frequently present, usually as a result of rings or cap wear.
Additionally, every unit in this family is vulnerable to frequent leaks of antifreeze and oil.
A thermostat and a constantly running water pump are two of this motor’s weak points.
