Hi everyone!

The snow has finally melted from the yard, so the annual troubleshooting session can begin once more.
This spring’s theme is to figure out where the huge amount of steam during cold starts is coming from.

The amount of vapour is so extreme that I don’t dare leave the car running anywhere public as within a five?meter radius a thick...

So the rear part of my Dangel 4x4 system seems to be broken.

Hi ... I have a 2006 Peugeot 407 hdi. I recently removed the air filter housing to replace the filter
and to be able to check the hoses at the back of the engine bay (trying to check for vacuum leaks) and I noticed that the housing has a small outlet/inlet pipe underneath it with a lip that looks like a hose is meant to be attached to it. I have...

Hi all,
My unit lost satellite connection and my navigation is dead. I have had this problem since I bought it back in 2023.

I have a Peugeot expert tepee 2.0 16v from 2008.
Vin is VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] so it should be an ew10a RFH engine. Considering the high mileage that the van has got I am thinking of doing a swap. Only thing is, there seem to be a million RFJ engines but not a single RFH in all of Europe. Does anybody know what the differences between the 2 are, if any?

Dear All
My recently acquired Peugeot Partner Horizon 2007 wheelchair access truck, had been behaving itself recently, once all the myriad of post purchase gremlins were addressed.
I thought all was well until an unnerving amount of understeer forced me to the kerb and bent (not too badly) the OSF wheel. I put the spare on and went on my way, and...
