Hi everyone,

I recently bought a 2021 Peugeot 308 GT Hybrid from a professional dealership, and I would like to know the full factory equipment list using the VIN: vr3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff].

I am especially trying to confirm if my car has Blind Spot Monitoring. From what I understand, it should be standard on Allure and above. I have the two small LED...

My Hdi alternator has developed a voltage drop issue after a long run. Voltage is normally around 14.5 volts but after a long run (say 100kms), it will drop to 12 volts and continue downwards, suggesting its has stopped charging.

If I spray the alternator with a hose or even a water bottle, it jumps back up to 14.5 volts and will run fine for a...

Good evening, I have a 2010 Peugeot RCZ with the 2.0 HDi 160 hp engine (engine code RHH). While dismantling components to access the valve lifters (which I needed to replace), I accidentally disconnected the hoses from the turbo control solenoid valves. I reassembled the engine and the car runs, but it’s throwing a fault because the turbo is...

Hi

My intercooler air hose 03845J2 is fine but the seal to the air intake resonator 163614 is perished / has a few splits in it

It appears you can't buy the seal by itself, only the complete hose.

Has anyone found a replacement seal that works ? It seems it 54.5MM diameter

There are seals available for the 1.6L part 1434C8 but I assume they...

Hi everyone,

I have a Peugeot 207 1.4 Semi-Auto with the KFU engine, and I’m experiencing an issue where it idles at around 1500–1600 RPM. I purchased the car with a gearbox problem, which initially prevented the engine from starting. Since then, I have replaced the clutch, clutch actuator, and serviced the vehicle, including replacing the cam...

Hello everyone,

I’m currently searching for scrapyards in the North West of England where I can personally remove parts from Peugeot vehicles. Specifically, I’m interested in self-service scrapyards.

If anyone has recommendations or knows of any suitable scrapyards in the region, I’d greatly appreciate your input.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some technical insight from people familiar with PSA electrical systems.

I have a **Peugeot 308 T7 THP** (Brazilian market, manufactured in Argentina).

My original **Delphi BSM R05 (ending in 8480)** failed after the A/C fuse overheated and melted the fuse holder. It also left the low beam relay permanently ON.

I...

Hello,
I am in need of changing the timing chain for the first time since i got my rcz, i would like to ask why is there a timing chain kit from febi one with 138 links and other one with 144 links and which one to get. We are talking about 2012 rcz 1.6thp 200hp.

Cheers

Hi guys, my first post here. I recently acquired a 2015 Peugeot 508 very cheap, seller thought the turbo was stuffed so sold it cheap, but a hose had just popped loose from the boost solenoid.
But I have discovered a puddle of oil forming on the heat shield just below the solenoids(see photo attached).
As far as I'm aware, the only thing up from...

Flipping thing rattling particularly at idle.

Sat on rubber mounts, one of which has disappeared, peg on cylinder head cover is fretting through the rubber mount's hard plastic ring (part of the lid)

Inexplicably, bottom half is split into two parts, clipped together. Clips loose not holding, rattling.

Inside is a support bar, H shaped, clipped...

I've finally on the 3rd attempt got the newer steering wheel on my Expert. Mine is a basic professional ex-fleet 2021 and the steering wheel had obviously been grasped by countless grubby hands and looked like it.
I fancied something leather bound, so ordered a wheel off of E Bay, it fitted but the airbag didn't! So try again, the new one is from...

Hi all,

I have a 2016 308 (T9) and neither of the rear windows work, front are fine. Is there a shared fuse or relay that would explain both not working outside joint regulator failure? I don't recall them ever working since I bought the car tbh, so I'm not sure how they've been treated previously.

Tried having a look online for a fuse etc. but...

Hi. Im new to this site. Trying to contact you Paul-R. Regarding diagbox. Needed my car done. Says your the guy closest to me who can do it. New additive pump needs coding in. Please help

I am recently lumbered with a 2006 Peugeot 307cc with the 2 litre 16v petrol engine.
Alongside with the usual problems of the top not working, electric windows and door handle sensors not working I now have a problem that makes me want to have it towed to the nearest scrapyard.

There is an intermittent problem. It can start and run like a dream...

As reported elseware, Robyn's 207 has a damaged fuel line in the vicinity of the fuel tank. It is leaking badly and the section of pipe, which appears to be the transverse one that comes down from the tank to a coupling seems to be the one..

Grateful if someone could look in Pug Servicebox for me and get a picture of the fuel lines for a 2007 207...

Hi guys,

I need some help with my car, it's a 508 rxh 2015 with 2.0 diesel engine dw10fc.
The car was standing for about 4 months, and the battery drained, so my father in law tried to charge it, and than replaced it.
But the car was cold dead, so he made a bridge cable from the negative pole to the car body.
The car starts, and he took it to the...

I am about to purchase a Peugeot 307cc and would like to check it has a genuine VIN number. I have tried a few VIN decoder sites online but they give incomplete or confusing information. Any ideas what to do?

Hi

Hi all,

So I disconnected battery remove it and drained oil from the box. The cars battery stayed disconnected for two days. When all done all was good but week or so later my...

I need to get some electrical cable between the car/ cabin and into the engine bay. I’m trying to wire a light bar, and whilst it isn’t necessary now, I prefer to have a switch separately so that I can turn on the main beam lights without the light bar being turned. And for that, I need to install a switch for the lights...

I've fitted a new gearbox to my wife's car, usual dramas but working ok, better than previous. One thing I've not got smooth yet is the gear selection. I've looked at the gear linkage and it all looks sound. The only adjustment seems to be on the gear lever/gearbox cable. Is there a tension value/ set up procedure for this?

Car is a 207cc, 1.6...

Ordered a complete service kit for my 21 plate Pug Expert a few weeks ago from Opie oils. I struggled to find the correct oil. Hence using Opie. Gave the whole box pretty much unchecked to my mechanic earlier in the week. He found they'd only provided 2L of gearbox oil, not 3 as ordered. Phoned Opie, No problem sir, I'll ship the other litre...

ok, so thanks for all the help on my other post :)

I've got a knock when I'm travelling at low speeds, or if I'm coasting towards lights and touch the brakes it will do it. Over 20mph I can't hear or feel it.

I know knocks aren't exactly easy to diagnose over the internet but am stuck on this one.

It sounds like metal on metal. It's a 'clunk'...

Just got a Peugeot Boxer with 100.000 on the clock. Engine is 2016 2.0 bluehdi 130 (PSA DW10). Previously has had services done on time, next one is in half a year.

When I tried the car out before buying I thought the engine sounded fine but a few days later after driving it home it seems to me it's making a clicking or rattling noise, which...

This is a long shot but im hopeful,

I am mid-way through a 206 180 turbo conversion, forged engine, holset turbo, meth etc. im trying to put together a 6 speed gearbox strong enough for the 450 horses im aiming for.

I have done tons of research and found scraps of info on various forums, and so far what i can gather, it seems like the...

I’m not sure where this should be posted, but as both items are about Peugeot, here’s as good a place, I think/hope.

First, some notoriety for the marque. In a small city not very far from me, a Peugeot driver is due to appear in court next week after failing to stop when directed by police who then had to give chase. He was subjected to a...

One of the parameters present in a datastream sent by the BSI is invalid

What on earth does this mean? Pls help !!

Hi all,

I have this pesky 3008 1.6 THP 5FM (EP6CDTM), 120 kW 163 BHP.

New vvt solenoid.
New camshaft sensor.
New oil pump with solenoid. Actual and specified...

Hello. Can someone tell me based on the following chassis series VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff], if the air intake to the engine is with two air intake flaps (with by-pass), or with a single air flap, as the 2 variants are shown in the images. I don't have the RPO series of the car and on profile sites both variants are given, depending on the RPO code. Thank...

Hi all, cryptic heading perhaps. Mine’s a Peugeot 307 2003 with a broken belt tensioner. Nfu engine 1.6 dohc 109 hp. I have made a replacement which functions without the original properties. I understand the tensioner, called 5706H1, is very uncommon. Neither breakers nor spare parts dealers have this particular type, but rather the automatic...

Quick question.

I don’t have access to the car just now to check this myself & wont get near it until the weekend.

Does anyone know what type of bolt head is used on the calliper securing bolts. Is it just standard hex, or something like Allen or Torx? I’m sorted if it’s hex or Allen, but not so with Torx as I only have a few sizes.

I've got an error code of U1134 coming up on my peugeot 2008 1.6 diesel (2013 year).

I've read that it may have something to do with the stop/start system on the car which hasn't been working for a while, because I assumed I haven't done any long journeys for a long time.

I have a very long journey in the next few days and need advice on whether...

Hi, Facing a problem with my Peugeot boxer currently where when it is cold there is a rattle, it comes from the top of the engine but seems to come from the whole top of the block.

Just as the hot weather hit this week, the aircon on my 2012 Partner Outdoor (I pity everyone with the indoor edition) packed up. One day it was fine. The next, much hotter, day it wasn't.

I've just hooked up the Diagbox computer and am able to manually activate the compressor clutch. I also found out I can activate the aircon when the blower is...

Hello,

I have got a Peugeot 406 2.1TD with the EPIC pump. It's recently started cutting out when up to temperature, particularly when returning to idle (e.g. at junctions). I'm suspecting it is something to do with the pump or pump electronics, but I was wondering if there is anything else to rule out.

I recently replaced the fuel pipe all the...
