I gather the 1.9 is more mechanical injection with a little bit of electronics , so any info you get is likely to be a tad basic.

Only thing that'll speak to your ECU will be a Lexia interface with PP2000. Not cheap!

Certainly not cheap!!!!

I think you have the older version of the OBD. Is that called the EOBD?? The D9's have OBD-II anyway. It depends what you want to do with the port? If its clearing engine codes the then you can still do that with a basic enough scanner.

No. On non-HDi D8s it's a PSA-specific variant of KWP which only Lexia+PP2000 speaks, and even then there's no guarantee that it'll speak to much more than the engine ECU

Some HDi ECUs have very loose OBD2 support

Only if the scanner will talk to the car. On a TD this is very much not the case.
