Hi guys

The only spare ones I could find online available are of a different design and not sure if they would work. The black one with the hook is the one in my pump.

Does anyone have a spare one or know if this can be welded back on or if fitting a...

Hi All

So far I've replaced spark plugs, coils, camshaft and crank sensor, once I clear the codes it seems to drive fine, happens more on cold start up but can happen when warm too, no signs of head gasket failing that I can see. I have attached live data. Was running lean but now I've...

Hello everyone!
My 2009 Peugeot 207, after a heavier traffic than usual, had its coolant bubbling and spilling. The car used to drink coolant all the time for no good reason but I just went with it.

hello. I have a problem with the driver's seat heating. The seat does not heat up but the backrest heats up properly. There are no errors in diagbox. However, I have the impression that the passenger seat does not heat up the backrest well but the seat heats up properly and there are no errors either.

Forgive my lack of knowledge when it comes to engine/turbo related issues, but I've got a niggling question on my mind regarding a sensor that is seemingly disconnected on my vehicle.

It's a terrible picture, but there are 2 air pipes that enter the front of the engine on my vehicle. Both seem to have sensors, but only the right hand pipe is...

5.jpg I have the 'shearing centre' type of 4 pin locking wheel nuts on my Peugeot 207cc and they aren't budging.
Any kind of serious torque using a breaker bar causes the key to 'cam out'.
I've tried using a Lidl 'impact wrench' which when pushed on hard stops the camming out but appears to damage the tool without any movement.
Is there any simple...

Hi guys,

Today I was trying to remove Bosch VE pump from my Peugeot 205 diesel, 1995 to change some leaking seals.

I unscrewed the 4 nuts of the pump, the pump shaft nut, fixed the pump pulley in place with 2 M8 bolts and removed all that was necessary according to the instructions in the manual, however I can't remove the pump.

It only has a driver's airbag and I think - correct me if I'm wrong - there's no pretensioner and the two blue wires under the driver's seat are for the seatbelt indicator. I've replaced the plug/socket under the seat with bullet connectors on both blue wires, replaced the clock spring rotary...

Hi all,

I've just bought a 207 sw 1.6Hdi with the DV6DTED engine and was wondering if it suffers from the same issue as the others regarding the injectors backing off?
Looking at the injectors on this 8v engine it has a similar clamping method to the older DW10 engine. I'm hoping Peugeot has addressed this issue on later engines.
Also I had...

Hi all,

Im new to this forum. I am happy I found it.

In pp2000 I can see the 'clutch switch' configuration as 'present' in engine ECU.
But when looking at Parameter measurements clutch pedal registers as '???'

Does this mean it's broken? I think this is the reason I cannot change cruise control from missing to present.

Hi guys. I brought a Peugeot a few weeks ago which I believe have diamond cut alloys?

About 2 weeks into owning this car...

Hi,
I bought a 2018 Peugeot 308sw GTLine last week, after a couple of days Engine light came on, so I checked Diags and it was a Low limit for Additive (P15B3). Took it back to the dealer who said it was just a sensor and cleared the code.

Hi guys. Just picked up a 65 plate gt line, very nice car. It's done 70,000 miles.

The dealer told me the belt is the original one and it's not due to be changed until 100,000 miles or December 2025 (10 years) is this correct.

Would I be ok driving it over this summer and then replacing it in time for autumn? When it's closer to the 10 year...
