At the weekend I disconnected my battery to route a power cable for a small amplifier. I followed the reset procedure noted on the site but had a horrendous experience when i connected it all back up. Hand brake failure alarm, engine fault warning, service flashing, window shut itself and wouldn't open locking was half working, when I tried to...

Hi all,

New guy here desperately looking for a solution to a repeating issue.

Car got into a limp mode. When checking codes via Diagbox noticed two errors in the Hybrid control ECU 1 occurring simultaneously. I've noticed that the ancillary belt tensioner was very wobbly so it got changed together with the belt. Hope was...

Hello, for about 2 years, yes, you read correctly, 2 years... What bothers me is the malfunctioning ESP or Semi-functional. It works until I pass a corner at a minimum speed of 60 km/h until then everything behaves fine and ESP works. Then when I turn off the car and start it again the error is gone and it repeats itself every time I drive. Lexia...

Hi,

I have installed OEM tow bar and electric kit on 208 II from 2021. After installation and connection to the trailer the lights of course didn't work.
I hooked up Lexia to the car, bought a token, used oficial Diagbox, and activated the trailer unit. Yuhuuu, trailer works! (wasn't really able to test the fog light as it was missing on the...

Good afternoon,
I have a 1998 106 1.1 Zest 3 which, I believe, has the TU1M(HDZ) engine with the Bosch fuel injection. A couple of months ago two issues manifested:

1) The engine misfired when accelerating
2) The idle speed would drop to 500rpm or the engine would stall completely.

Issue #1 was fixed with new spark plugs and HT leads.

Issue #2...

I've recently bought a used Peugeot 2008 GT Line (2020) with a 1.5 diesel engine and ATN8 automatic transmission.
It's equipped with 12 parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, radar under the bumper, lane assistance, and safety brake, along with a camera for signs.
What my car missing is active cruise control, automatic parking, highway drive...

hi all,

not sure if this is the right place but i have just purchased a 2015 3008 and was wondering if there is a way to avoide motorways on the system as i cannot seem to find it? i like having the display in car and would rather not just use my phone for navigation if possible. thanks in advance

Hi All,

I have a Peugeot 308, 2015 model (1.2 Litre Petrol, Manual).
It suddenly stopped working (cranks but won't start).
I called the breakdown support and the AA did some diagnostics and gave the following error codes:

Patrol found the following fault code/s:System : Engine control 1 - 9E4 / Engine management Valeo VD46 Status :P1B40 - Engine...

Hi,
I have the cylinder head of on my 208 (EB2 engine). It started with a new timing belt and then I realised it wasn´t that much more job to change the valve steam seals because the car use about 1 litre oil per 1000 km (thought this maybe would help a bit?).

Then I had to take the top of because I accidently damaged a valve when taking one seal...

Hiya my Peugeot partner combi 20hdi 2004 had a new cambelt fitted after a short while about twenty miles it broke down eventually started to get me home then won't start again had a garage look at it they said the timing belt snapped so they fetched it back i went to start it and it started ran perfectly but when hot it would not start again so...

Hi all,

Apologies for the trivial question but I'd like to replace the spark plugs on a 1997 2.0 Turbo (XU10J2TE) and the layout is slightly different to what I've found online for (presumably later) petrol engines. Instead of a plastic engine cover and a single ignition coil pack for all four plugs, I seem to have individual ignition coils (see...

Hey all,
I've searched and searched and I just can't find the info I need, I'm happy to pay for it if someone has it.
I've got a 2021 plate boxer, I've removed the double passenger and fitted a single and therefore the pretensioner wiring doesn't fit, throwing an airbag fault code.
I'm told I can fit a resistor into the wiring to fool the circuit...

Hello,

I have a 2015 Peugeot Expert 2.0 hdi that has started to idle at about 1250 rpm, but if I press the brake pedal, the revs drop back to normal. Also if I switch the engine off for a minute or 2 it seems to reset itself. Sometimes I can drive for about half an hour before it starts doing it again or sometimes it will only go for 10 minutes...

Just looking to see would it be possible for part number DSF - Shock absorber.

Kind regards.

I have an oil leak from the oil cooler/filter housing, car has over 200000 on the clock. So I will replace the gaskets on it.

I'm also replacing the Turbo. As I am getting an intermittent error on the Turbo P2566 and it has to come off anyway to get to the cooler. I think it may be coming to the end of its life.

Hi all,
All advise appreciated on this issue. I have a 2012 2.0 hdi 163bhp that when fully warmed up will sit with a high idle of around 1300RPM. This reduces to normal idle (800rpm) when the brake pedal is pressed but goes back to 1300rpm when released. It will also drive at this rpm when the accelerator pedal is not pressed i.e. 50mph in 6th...

Hi

I have a 11 reg Peugeot 207 1.4 Diesel which has 98000 miles on the clock. Recently after filling up, the 'Fuel additive level too low' error appeared.
My question is - Is this something only Peugeot garages can change and reset the ECU or do you know if any other garages are able to do it?
My local Peugeot garage has quoted £250-£300 to...

I bought this car here in the motherland, France (my first Peugeot) about a month ago and have finally sorted the maintenance receipts (I'm the 4th owner, it would seem) and I have a few questions about service intervals and oils. The car has 193k km on it.

1) Peugeot recommends a ridiculous 120K km/10 year interval for a timing belt change. This...

Just carried out a monthly scan of my 2017 3008 1.6 HDI with 90k miles and it had B1811:96 for a fault in diesel fuel additive pump showing as intermittent, which I haven't seen before.

I did have the orange spanner symbol illuminate a few weeks ago but it had disappeared by the next start and it wasn't accompanied by a message relating to low...

Can any one help me. I have looked around the Internet but can't seem to find want I am looking for. I have a Peugeot Partner B9 and looking for a replacement catch for the rear seat, the one that locks into the floor holding the seat down. I can't seem to find a replacement or a part number can anybody help.

Morning all,

Struggling to find much regarding the specific problem I am having, and as I'm now running out of things to check, I thought it was time to ask here.

My 1.9 XUD n/a engine in my N reg 306 has refused to start via the key for some time now. I left it stored for a while over winter after discovering this due to a lack of time more...

Hi All.

I have had my 2017 308 GT Line 2.0 blue HDI in at my local Peugeot dealer.

I had pluming white steam consistent with an AdBlue injector fault.

Peugeot put it on the computer and diagnosed a failed AdBlue injector and this was replaced. This in turn had shown up a blocked DPF. I have previously had no issues with the DPF (67,000 miles),...

Hello, I own a Peugeot 308 GTI from 2018 with the 1.6l 193 kw. Yesterday the engine light and the service light came on the car also lost power. This afternoon I went to my local mechanic and the fault code P0235 popped up. This has something to do with the turbo pressure sensor. Did anyone had the same issue or can you help me to locate the...

My wife's 207 is running lovely with the exception of a very random burning smell that is really strong and comes and goes.

It smells like a burning clutch but the clutch is not slipping at all and was changed about 40k miles ago with an LUK one. The burning smell seems to have started since my wife drove through some deep flood water at the end...

Hi,

After replacing the original but faulty advance solenoid (coded) with a non coded LUCAS solenoid, I can't start the car.
The new solenoid receives +12V correctly after I start the car with the key.

Hi everyone, I am new to the forum and I have a few issues that I would be so grateful for any help with!

After some advice if possible.

Trying to recalibrate the steering angle sensor on a Peugeot 5008 2012. I'm getting the following codes. I have made sure the wheels are dead ahead. But it keeps failing and illuminating the ESP light. Does it sound like the Angle sensor/ Clock spring I purchased is faulty or could it just need reinstalling? Thanks...

I spent a few hours today trying to help a friend out.

He’s got an incredibly rare 306 Cabriolet. It’s a genuine Dimma. 1 of only 2 ever made. It’s the one that featured in the Max Power magazines back in the day. It was originally yellow but when he got it the paint was trashed so he repainted it. It’s stunning and ever since he’s been here...

Hi everyone,

I am trying to find out if I can fit a secondhand ECU to my 2012 207 1.4 vti without the need for matching it to the car in some way.

Could anyone tell me if it will just plug in and work or is there more to it than that?

Many thanks

Since I had some issues with my 2012 Peugeot 308 RNEG unit, I've taken it out and sent it for repair. After taking the unit out, and driving without it for a couple of minutes, a check engine light appeared.
I've not noticed any changes in driving, and everything seems to be working fine (engine-related).

I wondered if the check engine light is...

Hello,

I had a P11A3 fault code (i put up a post a few days ago) and it disappeared after replacing the VVT solenoid (stupid engineers, took me hours...) but this P0010 code popped up (and check engine light is on - i can't earse the fault, it is defined as permanent ).

The car seems to run fine , maybe...

I have a Peugeot 207 sportive 2011.
The right hand window control needs replacing. Some sites say part 6490EJ. Others say 6490EH.

Hi everyone, I'm new here

I have a 2010 peugeot partner with an oil leak, I have located it to be coming from the manifold seal between 2 injectors.
I've got most of it stripped down however the HP fuel lines are in the way....has anybody got an eay way of getting these off?
Also how does the airbox come out from behind the engine?

Thanks for...

Would anyone have the circuit diagram for the control of this flap. It is the slide button type control mounted above the radio. I have the controlling motor removed and it seems to have no faults. The internal gears are ok and on full heat the ac pump turns off ok. I think the problem may be in the dash control unit. I...

hi guys the vacuum pump on my 205 1,8 d has two pipes coming out one obviouslt goes to the breaks and they work fine but the other pipe just sits in the engine bay and is cut off. can someone tell me where this goes to. Thanks

Hi all. I have a 2011 Peugeot 3008 and I am currently having problems with the (front left) ABS system. I have replaced the wheel sensor and also the wheel bearing and the ring sensor, but the ABS and ESP lights are still on. The wheel sensor has been checked and is fine, it seems as though the problem is above the sensor. Could anybody please...

Can anyone tell me if the key on my 2006 307 uses ASK or FSK modulation? Was about to buy one from Aliexpress but my existing key is obviously a universal replacement and does not have either of the original CE0536 / CE0523 markings on it anywhere.

As mentioned elsewhere, I have had issues with our 308CC not charging the battery properly. The alternator does produce current to balance the load, but the output voltage would not rise over 12.8V. usually hovering around 12.5V.

I have tried fitting a second hand alternator from a Mini Cooper with a similar Prince engine, and it is a little...

Problem that i am encountering is that xenon lights stays in lowest position. When i start the car i get the message (Automatic headlamp height adjustment fault) followed with...

As it just annoyed me.

When it comes to replacing the battery, is there any reason why I can't now use a wet battery of the same size and capacity, instead of the old AGM that is fitted?

Is there any difference in the charging circuit for AGM, that would preclude replacing it with wet?

Cheers

Honestly, I have no idea as I've not even...
