Hi all, ive been pulling my hair out for ages now trying to get my cruise control working on my 2002 406 hdi 2.0ltr working. I have checked the rear lights and all bulbs are correct and working, also checked and tested all switches on brake pedal and clutch all working fine. I had the garage put her on the diagnostic which showed the buttons on...

Hi all,

A question for all 508 owners.

On the multifunction radio display (without Sat Nav). What colour is the display?
Is it standard Pug/Citroen Orange with Orange Climate Control display or is there a Black and White version with Black and White Climate Control display?

I've been offered a clock unit which the owner 99% is sure that the...

What are the things to change in Peugeot 406 when its jump timing and bent the bigger 8valves out of 16valves.
Thanks jumping of timing of Peugeot 406

Recently bought a 57 plate 407SW diesel. In general I am more than happy, but I am a little concerned at the poor running at start up. It seems to clear once the car has been running for a minute or two. It started off just being a bit lumpy , but this morning it sounded like it was only running on 3 cylinders and I had a triangle warning light on...

hi everyone, I have just recently got a 2005 307 1.6 hdi 110. My question is, can I stop the hazards flashing under heavy braking?

After a new hub for the Xantia, noticed the part number lines up with 406 ones. Servicebox seems to think theres only one type of hub fitted to the 405 and 406, as opposed to the slightly larger one fitted to some Xantias. Also lots of non-abs ones about but again SB shows no difference

Just after some real-world knowledge as 406's are aplenty in...

Hi, i have a Kenwood stereo in my car at the moment which plays mp3 cd's etc. However i miss using my stalk under my steering wheel. Is there a genuine Peugeot stereo that i can just plug in that will play mp3' cd's and allow me to use my steering wheel stalk.

Thanks in advance

Hello everyone,

Apologies if this had been asked in the past, I've only just started using the forum.

I was wondering if any Peugeot 407 owners could give me a little advice for buying a used 1.6 407 estate and what to look out for?

My budget is £1500 max and I am after the 1.6 diesel due to insurance quotes & mpg - I've got to do a couple of...

Hi, I've got a 2001 306 and is the title suggests I'm having issues with the heater system. The heat fan is perminantly stuck on full blast and none of the dials work so I can't adjust the temp or turn on the a/c. This meant I had to take the blower fuse out to stop it burning out the blower moter and melting the interior. The main problem is the...

Hey, probably stupid question, but is possible to use fuel injectors from RFS engine (306 GTI-6) in RFY (306 S16 y. 1993) without remap ECU :?

My step-daughter's keen to purchase a new car soon, Pug 206. About £500 to £800 mark. Which are the best engine options, also keeping in mind cheapest poss insurance? ....specially as she's had two small claims in the past two years!!

I know the DW-8's widely regarded as a bit of a dog, but not sure how to identify it? A particular cc rating...

Hi All,

Recently have had my intercooler replaced which was about 2 months ago now. Although I am now getting further engine codes coming up which are as follows:
P0299
P0100
P1351
P3008

What could be causing this?

Any advise welcome! :)

I have just acquired a 2000 reg 206 HDI from a friend as it had become surplus to his requirements and has issues.

The car has been stood for 2 years. Not started no battery nothing. I went to collect the car and it is refusing to start so stuck it on a tailor and brought it home.

So far my findings are that it will not pump fuel on its own....

Hi to all,

I'm new to the forum & new to Peugeot. Previously a Renault man and could figure out their problems easily enough.

I've just acquired a 2005 Partner 1.9 (non turbo) van 147,000 on the clock. The one thing that has straight away confused me somewhat is the idle speed.

First start of the day she ticks over at between 1000 -1100...

Hi again Guys
I just bought a 307 1.4 hdi with some problems. Main one is that sometimes there's no power at all. Abs light is on, I got the car scanned and replaced the back nearside ABS sensor as it was showing faulty. Also there seems to be oil around the drive-shafts where they go into the gearbox. The clutch was changed recently. Any pointers...

Evening gentlemen

I've got a slight issue I'm struggling with on the sister in laws 03 plate 1.4? TU propelled 206 I'm hoping you can assist me with.
For a while now its been having running issues with eml on, sometimes from start up apparently but I will keep to the symptoms I've seen for myself.

Hi, I just ruined with my own stupidity both vacuum membrane for ACAV. Does anybody know, where I would get them? Or who sells RFY engine for parts? I cannot find any available in Czech Republic through scrapyard :cry:

Well guys, I finally started checking over my new to me 307. I was told there was a small oil leak but when I got the undertray off there is oil everywhere, all over the engine from the head down so I doubt the back seal on the crank is causing it. I don't have enough engine cleaner until Monday. So questions. Do these engines leak oil and if so...

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum so firstly, hi!

Ive recently bought a Peugeot Partner Tepee 1.6hdi 90bhp (58 plate, 55,000 miles) a few weeks ago the engine management light came on and I got an 'anti pollution faulty' message.

I have a cheap OBD II reader and it pulled up the following codes:

P0104 - MAF circuit intermittent
P0100 - MAF circuit...

I have just bought a 2007 Peugeot 407sw and the LCD display has lost most of its pixels. I have sourced a replacement off ebay for @ £60 and I have watched a video tutorial. One thing that is not clear, is the radio held in by screws, or do you just push in something to release it. Any help would be gratefully accepted. I presume have got the...

I got some wiring diagrams 206 of the Internet and they don't seem to tie up with the real world.

I am trying to get some 12 V from the inside with about 10 A capability. No matter where I look I can't seem to get any. Thought I could get some from the fusebox, two big fat wires seem to have no volts on them while the key is not turned. Am...

Greetings,
Apologies for my 1st post being about a problem but I've searched all over the internet & can't find much (in English at least) about this.
Loving the 407 but for the second time since we bought it in March the engine management system faulty message has popped up with the exclamation mark.
Car running normally far as I can tell.

I have a 307 (53 plate) and when i start the car up, the ABS is fully on, which means every time i put my foot on the brake the ABs engages and gives that lovely crunchy poppy noise (like you have stamped on the brakes on a car fitted with ABS). After about 2 mins it reports an ABs fault and turns the ABS off. drives lovely after that.

I have been giving the little Pug 206 a full service, so came to the Timing Belt. As I had no idea when it was last changed, I stripped the old belt off after locking the sprockets. Fitted the new belt, tensioned off and before I Had even started the engine, noticed that the water pump was weeping. Stripped belt off - got a new pump and...

dispatch finally gone to meet its maker so in the absence of a cheap synergie found an 806.
a few years newer than the dispatch and its older xud engine, the hdi feels more refined and smoother
Anyway a few hopefully minor issues with it,
the battery light flashes when first starting and goes on for five minutes or so of driving then goes out to...

Hello I changed the fuel filter due to being a little black and due for a service on my 306 hdi in the engine. I then had to clean out the fuel strainer in the tank due to cutting out. The strainer was blocked up so give it a good clean out. Also cleaned the diesel tank of the bits while sorting that out.

I did prime the pump and leave for so...

Hello

anyone ever come across this problem before?.No Speedo and AirBag Light On and Bleeping.Many Thanks.

My sister rang the other night complaining of smoke coming from the vents in her car. Turns out she was being a drama queen and it's actually steam. When we had a look at it, there was no coolant in the bottle and a puddle in the footwell. She then turns around and says my windows have been steaming up a lot recently too .

Anyway, does anyone...

My 306 hdi has started hunting now and then on idle. Its got a new air filter and cleaned the maf as well.

I changed the fuel filter before with the old one being a little black due for a change.

I just checked now and the fuel pump in the tank the strainer blocked up a lot. I can see a lot of black stuff built up on the white strainer.

So is...

Hello guys, I was wondering is it possible or realistic to have an after market Turbo charger installed into a 2.0 engine peugeot 407 2005 model? with petrol. It would be a nice upgrade. thanks.

2001 Citroen Dispatch speedo, fuel gauge and analog clock not working.
Is there a fuse common to these?
Better still, has anybody a wiring circuit diagram?
Thanks......

My recently bought 90hp 2.0 HDi 206 often makes a clinking or pinging noise when the accelerator is pressed or released. I can produce the sound reliably by blipping the accelerator pedal slightly with the car idling. I'm pretty sure its coming from the EGR valve: if I pull the vacuum hose off the EGR at idle it makes the same sound as the valve...

Hello FCF,

I have overcome most of my problems regarding airbags/abs etc but now i am faced with a different problem, as long as planet peugeot is plugged in both front window electric motors wind up and down without problem and the drivers door mirror also electrically adjusts too (not electric folding though) but as soon as i'm disconnected...

I drive a Peugeot 406 automatic 1998 model. I observed that at some times while driving, the sport and snow lights come on and flashes simultaneously. I have read posts that the automatic gear oil needs to be changed when this occurs and the oil wear counter reset to zero.
Is there anyone who can confirm if this is the real solution?
Also, I read...

Can anyone tell me how often the spark plugs should be replaced on a 56 plate Peugeot 207 1.6 16v (110 petrol)

I believe it's the same engine as the Citroen C2 VTS

The owners handbook is very confusing and can't find the information anywhere.

I believe they are long life, but how long I don't know.

My 2002 partner had an advisory on last year's MOT for lower balljoint. Having looked online for spares I noticed that they seem to either screw in to the lower arm or come as a bolt on bracket with 3 holes. On looking at mine however, it seems it's held in with a clamp/bolt. Is this right and how easy is it to change myself?

Hi everybody
just eventually removed my turbo from my 806 2.0 hdi
on removing the high pressure oil line from the block the filter in the banjo bolt has broken up leaving only a small part of the fine mesh
don't know where the rest went!! maybe this is what caused the turbo to fail !!
is this filter essential ?
was thinking of leaving it out as I...

3. remove the filler plug 1 and systematically add 0.5 litres of oil to the transmission, (yes)
4 press the brake and change through all the...

Hi everyone

I've got a problem with 307 where is would not start after it has been locked. Otherwise, it start every time. However, 30 seconds after start rev counter would stop working together with engine temperature followed by STOP. The car would still run OK.

So I finally got through with installing diagbox on my laptop but ran into a problem at the later end. Right after I close the program and reopen it, where it says installing internet update the bar loads and then it says please wait. After a few minutes it comes up with an error message saying to reload the diagnostic tool and recommence...

Hi everyone,
Need to locate this sensor for replacement but can't see it - help please. Haynes does say that I may have to remove a few bits to get to it but it would be a great help and possibly save a great deal of work if I knew where it was in the first place !!
Many thanks,
John. :?

I have been tasked with making my BILs 307 HDI run again, my cheapo code reader gives me 1351 and 1445 which relate to glow plugs and Eolys overflowing ???
