Hi!

I've had to take my 406 off the road earlier this year as I was off work long-term due to eye-surgery, and couldn't afford MOT repairs!

Ufortunately I'm having some difficulties as wassocks have broken in and thieved the radio unit, and chopped off the wiring-plugs to it as well, and nicked all the relays and fuses out of the engine...

Dear Members of FCF,

Yesterday whilst travelling to work at about 6am (-4 degrees i might add) the display bleeped and a messaged appeared stating Antipollution Fault and the orange engine light appeared on the dash. I managed to get to work with no noticible lack of power etc.

This morning (-8 degrees) the same thing happened complete with loss...

hi all, my friends 206 1.1 petrol 1999ish - has failed on CO at idle and revs..

quick thoughts? Partially burnt fuel I am guessing.. plugs, AF .. I guess there could be a few other things that could cause it..?

thanks,
John

oops.. sorry thought I was puttting this in Peugeot! :twisted:

The heaters on my 306 hdi are not working at the moment.

Ive checked all the fuses inside below the steering wheel and in the engine bay there all fine.

Where the front interior light is the little fan still goes around. Also I can hear the fan motor near the glove box before your start the car. It makes the small noise but thats it.

The speed...

An 01 306 2.0hdi....with minimal fuss/hassle, I think the twin passes are a bit easier because the pipes can run at one side of the rad but apart from that..

onclick= window.open(this.href);return false;

onclick= window.open(this.href);return false;

basically bought the car, it turns over but wont fire, if i spray a bit of easy start in, it starts to fire but wont actually run, there is a little red light on the lock button on centre dash flashing frantically constantly.
any ideas

i have just purchased a expert van 1.9 td 1998 and i think the head gasket is knackered. the symptoms are that every morning i have to bleed the radiator and its full of air. if i dont bleed the radiator then it will boil over when left idling. as long as the radiator is bled everyday then the van is ok. the temp is always around 70 if its...

Hi

I have a 94 Peugeot 405, have a bit of a problem with the heater.

The heater blows out hot air right at the vents but when you move further away from that the air is cold, really cold!. If the car is being driven, stopped and then left sitting going the heater will blow warm air and the car will be really nice and warm inside. However when...

Theres a little blue plastic bit behind the lucas pump, any one know what the part number is?

It's broken ive done a temp fix with zip tyes but would like a more permanent solution. Garages are asking crazy prices, saying the part does not exist on it's own.

The car started losing power at high revs is this due to the plastic bit coming...

I recently bought a 407 2.0hdi Zenith, having previously owned 2 Xantias. I presumed that it had a FAP fitted. However , having checked the engine code (6D RHRG/SF) with the owners manual it states no FAP fitted. Can any one enlighten me? The first job I did was to change oil and filters. I used Mobil 5-30 synth ESP which is a low saps oil. Will...

Let me tell you a story (it makes me feel better about it) ...
There was a 2000 406 HDi that was perfect with no engine codes.
One day, following a day of heavy rain and a drive through such rain, there was an error message about brake fluid being low. The fluid was checked and nothing was found to be wrong with it and no leak could be detected....

Hey,

Just changed the n/s wishbone on a 206 1.4 lx. Didn't exactly go smoothly, ended up using spring compressors and a long lever bar but finally got it all back together. However whilst I was replacing the wheel nuts I noticed a clicking coming from the drive shaft (where it joins the gearbox) as I slowly turned the wheel. When you turn the...

I have a 2001 306 hdi with 210,000 miles

The problem I have at the moment is a lack of power. The car seems to tick over fine, engine sounds sweet and it actually drives fine but just feels like a car without a turbo.

When pushing it a bit on a motorway slip road for example I dont feel the power surge that I use to. I dont know if this is...

Hello everybody
My ex 806(a friend's got it now) probably needs a glow plugs change as it only starts with easystart.

Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Guys and Gals (if any but hope so).
Boyfriend just got a Peugeot 407 SE HDi (2005) which looks like a spaceship compared to his old 405. It is low mileage (about 30000) and the ABS and ESP warning lights has just started to be on all the time. He is at a loss what to do. If he can avoid it, he wants to avoid spending a million pounds taking it...

Hi
Newbie to 308's but had a Citroen C5 before this.
Anyway, have a real odd question to pose. I've had the 308 for couple of weeks and initially got really good mileage (it's the 1.6HDI model). Then consumption went through the floor and so did lots of raw diesel. When checked by RAC the leak off pipe at end of injector pack was almost completely...

Hi folks,
I have an old (1996) 807 which started ticking (from the indicator relay) at random times and for random periods, the back light fitting was cracked and water was getting in so I thought this was the problem and changed light, still ticking. Then when indicating the direction light comes on steady (no on/off) so I changed indicator...

HI people - I've been far too busy building an extension/new improved garage for the last couple of years to do any car-spannering worth mentioning, so of course the poor machine is due some fettling.

It was fine last week (modulo a couple of minor things that could be better), but yesterday it wouldn't start. Coughed and sputtered a bit but that...

Folks,

The nice MOT man had a little frown at the universal on the steering column of 'erselfs 205 whilst handing me a shiny green piece of paper the other day. A frown which was accompanied by a yellow piece of paper.

When we got the 205 (1.1 pikey-spec Style , '90/G), the UJ was a bit stiff and notchy. Nothing that a quick spray of WD40 didn't...

Im not sure if this has been covered before (had a quick look but couldn't see what im after)

Ive seen lots of nice black leather on ebay from 3 doors...

The display on mine is variable, sometimes you can read it others it has sections missing, I have seen one or two on ebay but don't know if the radio/clock only type will work with the computer. Can anyone help?

I am planning to buy a second hand vehicle in the near future. My budget means that it will probably be at least 3 years old.

Being a fully payed up member of the light brigade, I would like a car with plenty of glass, and since the 207 SW comes with a big glass roof as standard, it's on my shortlist. My problem is that the forces of darkness...

Hello All in French Car Forum world!

I have discovered that there may be a possibility that I can swap the clock display (2 line version) in my 2004 Peugeot 206 S, 1.4HDI for a fuel computer display from a GTI/GLX/High Line vehicle.

I have also seen a you tube clip of someone achieving this on a 307 but it didnt say if this was on a petrol or...

Then the drivers lock got stiff, and/or just turned round and round......a common problem, it seems, after browsing these (and...

Our 207 is a 1.6 HDi GT with the electric power steering. When we got it the steering was as light as a feather at standstill and got heavier as your speed increased.

When I drove the car on Friday night I noticed that the steering felt heavier then usual. I didn't think much of it other then I'll keep an eye on it and will have a look when I...

Hello!

I'm hoping for some advice on the following situation.

In April 2012 I took my 306 1.9 DW8 (79,800 miles) to a diesel specialist to diagnose poor running. They subsequently removed and re-shimmed the camshaft which fixed the miss-fire. On getting the car home however I immediately noticed the following glaring problems.

• Fuel filter lid...
