The Vauxhall D 14 NET is a 1,399 cc, inline‑four turbo‑petrol engine produced between 2018 and 2023. It features direct fuel injection, a single twin‑scroll turbocharger, and dual overhead camshafts (DOHC) with variable valve timing. In standard form it delivers 110 kW (150 PS) and 235 Nm of torque, providing brisk low‑end response for compact hatchbacks and crossovers.
Fitted to models such as the Astra K, Corsa F, and Crossland, the D 14 NET was engineered for responsive…
Production years 2018–2019 meet Euro 6d TEMP standards; 2020–2023 models comply with Euro 6d .
The Vauxhall D 14 NET is a 1,399 cc inline‑four turbo‑petrol engineered for compact hatchbacks and crossovers (2018–2023). It combines direct injection with a twin‑scroll turbocharger to deliver responsive low‑rpm torque and refined high‑rpm power. Designed to meet Euro 6d TEMP and Euro 6d standards, it balances performance with stringent emissions control.

The Vauxhall D 14 NET was used across Vauxhall's Astra K, Corsa F, and Crossland platforms with transverse mounting and no external licensing. This engine received platform-specific adaptations—revised engine mounts in the Crossland for NVH control and compact exhaust manifolds in the Corsa F—and from 2020 the updated Astra MY21 models adopted revised engine control calibration for GPF management, creating minor ECU interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Engine Finders UK Ltd, which operates EngineCode.uk, can pass your enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. The service is for vehicles in the United Kingdom, with UK delivery or fitting. This is a commercially connected service, and sending an enquiry does not confirm diagnosis or compatibility.
Diagnostic reminder: If a technician has recommended replacing the engine, you can send an enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. Confirm the diagnosis first: an engine-code record does not diagnose a fault.
Field reports and technical service bulletins highlight component wear patterns under high-load operation. Adherence to manufacturer service intervals and approved fluid specifications is critical for long-term reliability.

The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The D 14 NET is generally robust when maintained properly, but early models (2018–2019) had HPFP reliability concerns. Post-2020 revisions improved fuel system durability. Using DEXOS2 5W-30 oil, RON 95+ fuel, and adhering to service intervals greatly enhances longevity.
Top issues include high-pressure fuel pump wear, GPF saturation from short trips, turbo actuator faults, and minor oil consumption via the PCV system. These are documented in Vauxhall service bulletins like PI0917 and supported by DVSA MOT data.
The D 14 NET powers the Astra K (2018–2023), Corsa F (2019–2023), and Crossland (2018–2023) in 150 PS form. Earlier Crossland models used a 1.2 Turbo, but 1.4 Turbo variants exclusively use the D 14 NET. All are transverse-mounted Euro 6d-compliant petrol engines.
Aftermarket ECU tuning is common on the D-14-NET platform, but increasing boost or altering engine parameters accelerates component wear, impacts emissions compliance, and may void vehicle warranties. Any modifications should be evaluated carefully by a qualified specialist.
In an Astra 1.4 Turbo 150 PS, expect ~7.2 L/100km (city), ~5.1 L/100km (highway), or ~40 mpg UK combined. Real-world mixed driving typically returns 38–44 mpg UK. GPF regeneration cycles can temporarily increase consumption during short trips.
Yes. Like all modern DOHC engines, the D 14 NET is an interference design. If the timing chain fails (rare but possible), piston-to-valve contact can cause catastrophic damage. However, the chain is front-mounted and designed for life-of-engine service under proper maintenance.
Vauxhall specifies DEXOS2 5W-30 (ACEA C3) synthetic oil. This low-SAPS formulation protects the GPF and turbo. Never use DEXOS1 or non-approved oils, as they can accelerate GPF clogging and HPFP wear. Change every 20,000 km or 12 months.
