Hello,
I’m looking for help to get the steering wheel radio controls working on my 2000 Peugeot 206 GTI (S16, Phase 1).

When I bought the car, it already had an aftermarket radio installed. I don’t know exactly which original radio it came with from the factory, but the service manual includes a Clarion pin code note. Based on that, I believe the...

hi 207cc
i have removed and replaced the faulty rear parkings sensors ( requiring removal of the rear light clusters) and also the drivers side seat for a cushion repair ( requiring disconnecting the air bag connector plug under the seat. ( done with battery disconnected.
now its back together i get messages for faulty indicators and also air bag...

I'm unsure if I should put this in the 308 forum, but it does seem to be the same problem as described here.

On a 2015 308 I had disconnected the battery to try and locate an intermittent fault on the air bag. After re-connecting the battery and then locking the car using the remote key, the alarm sounds straight away. So I think that it needs...

Dear
A few days ago on the Peugeot 508 SW year 2012. VIN: VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff], when starting, the warning Parking Assistance Fault appeared, but after some time the SERVICE disappeared and the parking assistance was working.
The next day it appeared again however the SERVICE didn't go away and the parking help didn't work.
Using Lexia3 and Diagbox...

Hi, all!
We had the automatic gearbox and the torque converter changed in a Peugeot 407 SW, and currently trying to finish the adaptation process.

However after the adaptation was initiated and we went for a test drive after a few hundred meters we got a P0734 error message.
Is this normal during the adaptation process?

Thank you for your input!

The side and rear plastic trim connectors appear to be designed better than the German vans, in that they have little rubber washer/gaskets around them.

I'm building a van conversion and on the German makes these always get silicone sealed in to stop water ingress as it runs down and in behind the trim panels.

Has anyone ever had an issue with...

Hi all,

Peugeot 206 GTI 140 (yr: 1999)

1. Car is on 37k miles with around 15 main dealer services. Cambelt and water pump changed at 29k in 2020.

2. Has been running ok during my 12 month ownership aside from erratic idling when parked. Temp goes to about a 100deg and engine seems to be struggling to breathe, if that makes sense. splutters to...

Hello everyone.
I bought a Peugeot 5008 in 2021 1,2 (131) 6 st. Manual transmission.
I have a “clutch temp high, limit use of pedal” warning appearing, but only when using 6th gear? It does not generate any error codes. I think this warning is generated if clutch slip is detected.
I've read the forum, but I haven't found a solution. Maybe someone...

I recently refilled the Eolys fluid in my 2013 Peugeot Partner 1.6 HDi 90 and I am trying to tell the vehicle I have done so. I have connected up Diagbox 7.57 via a Lexia 3 Full Chip interface, and can perform a Global Test with success; all the ECUs are recognised except the engine ECU, which just says ECU not recognised .

If I try to enter the...

Hello, I had a problem with the belt, as it snapped. I replaced the tensioners and serviced the alternator by changing the bearings and installing a new belt. Now, my car is showing the error message Check Engine - Repair is Needed, and after a few kilometers, the belt snapped again.
What could be the cause of this issue? Has anyone had a similar...

My wife's car is the 207cc, 1.6l petrol, 2008.
I started it ok, left it on idle and pumped up a soft tyre, and before my wife could get in, it just died.

It cranks easily enough, the battery is fully charged, left it on charge overnight, and the condition indicator on the battery is fine. The car will cough occassionaly but thats all. I was...

Hi, I have a 2015 Peugeot 308 1.6 Hdi a few weeks ago after filling the car up I had the service light pop up on the dash along with the engine management light 😔 following on after the engine management light I then noticed the car had lost power on acceleration. After plugging the car into the OBD port I got multiple Codes (P1434) multiplexed...

As title, does anybody know the correct torque for the plastic thermostat housing on a 2012 Peugeot 207 1.4 petrol kfw engine?

I'm having issues getting mine to seal properly but don't want to overtighten it!

Thanks in advance!

In the office today(!), set off this morning and the lights come on, to be greeted with BING! and a message saying Automatic Headlamp Height Adjustment Faulty. Hmm. This has the swivelling HDI lamps, so place your bets as to whether it's a simple height sensor fault, or if it's a fault with one (or more!) of the ruinously expensive headlamp units!...

Description of issue

I drove my car for 2 miles, parked up, switched off car, then after 15 seconds tried to turn it back on to move a little more forward but it failed to turn on - it cranks but no start.

I've had it towed to local garage and they've so far 1. replaced camshaft sensor, 2. replaced crankshaft sensor, and 3. replaced timing belt...

Hi, anyone got any tips on removing this sensor. I've got access to it and removed the retaining screw but there just isn't enough room to remove it. There is a mounting for the turbo hose manifold in the way (see picture) This mounting appears to be part of the alternator and aux belt tensioner mounting. Anyone any ideas? Fault codes I'm seeing...

Hi
I have a problem that is very irritating, at around 2250rpm upwards mostly 2500rpm the car feels like it's stalling. It's quite a violent jerk as if the brakes have been slammed on for a second. At about 2500rpm in 5th it's doing about 67mph.

It's not the speed as it does it in 4th at about 2500 rpm.

It feels like fuel cut to a degree.

Has...

Hi all I have joined in the hope someone can assist me.

I bought a Peugeot Expert 2011 1.6HDI

I’ll save you all the horrendous sob story but I’ve been had. I didn’t want the vehicle but I’d already sent the money.

There’s no engine light on, but it will not rev above 3000rpm so the max speed is about 58-60mph.

I’ve took it to my local garage...

This issue started around the beginning of the year & was annoying rather than considered an issue, it has however gotten worse of late, it's hard to describe but it kinda feels like the ABS is trying to kick in when the brake pedal is pressed although it doesn't do it each time. There is no ABS light & although the brakes don't quite feel normal...

Turbo have whistle when vacuum solenoid open. When bypass vacuum whistle is louder. There is no kick in acceleration.

I'd quite like to replace the front indictors on my 308 with led replacements, but doing this results in them flashing quickly due to the body computer thinking they are out due to low wattage, they work fine with the hazards. Is there an option in diagbox to reduce the sensitivity of or disable this?

I seem to remember this being the case, but...

Hi all,

508 RXH Hybrid4
Engine: DW10CTED4
Problem: P0131 - o2 sensor short to ground

I've replaced the upstream sensor (two new units, item 3 from the schematics), cleared faults only to find the error back again after couple of minutes of driving. I know there should be a downstream sensor that can cause this error but for the life of me I...

I am in the process of fitting a RCZ analogue clock into my 308cc.
I have taken the 12v+,Neg, CAN High and low from the stereo (aftermarket Chinese Android)
When you first add power to it, the hands spin around for about 30 seconds, and stops at random different times.

I have tried resetting the dash display clock, as the usual way of changing...

So after having replaced the 1351KT water pipe, the car ran well for a week or so.

I had to fiddle with the rear coolant cap at the rear of the engine (the one just past the diesel filter/ rear turbo pipe) as it was leaking.

Then the cruise control stopped working and gave me the Speed Control System Faulty warning

I replaced the brake pedal...

Hello Peugeot folks, Looking for some tips please….

today have replaced all seals on all injectors on my 140k mile 2009 non DPF Partner, following lots of research from this forum and some great videos, am super disappointed that the car won’t start as I was confident the job had gone well!
Battery was disconnected before any work started. I...

Hey! First time posting!

I bought a Peugeot 207 Envy 1.4 recently for my mother however the ABS light is on, I have plugged it in and the error code C1380 recycling pump fault which I think is quite common!

Can this be replaced “plug in and play” or is it something I better leave to the experts to do? I have a good level of basic mechanics and...

Hello.
My 407 2.0 litre 136 hp has begun to be difficult to start sometimes. The symptom is that when it is cold it starts without problems, but if i stop the engine after a while of driving and tries to start it again after a short stop (like if im in a shop) it starts and stops direct again. After being trying to start it again it will start...

This afternoon, after spraining my wrist from trying to start a 5hp Briggs & Stratton which has sat in a leaky garage for most of this century, this sprang to mind:
1996 and my friend had rented a nearly new 306 Turbo Diesel and filled the tank to the brim with just over 50 litres of.... petrol.
Using his own breakdown recovery to rescue the car...

Hi all,

First time poster and long time lurker…so hi to everyone and thanks in advance for any help I receive.

I have a 2017 (66 plate) Peugeot Partner van.

I stupidly disconnected the battery without following the correct procedure (which I didn’t know about at the time).

After reconnecting the battery, my van won’t start. I’ve tried the BSI...

Hi, new member here, hailing from Sweden.

Nearly two years ago I bought a used Peugeot Partner with a bit over 140,000 Km on the clock. VIN VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

Upon initial inspection and test drive, all seemed fine and I went ahead with the purchase. A few months later, an alert for the Diesel Particle Filter came up and had to cough up a...

Car is 2004 Peugeot 307 2.0 16V 100KW petrol with 308000km engine. Problem is the car starts shaking and slight stutter on idle when on temp and the purge valve starts operating. No symptoms or anomalies in any other situations. Car has this weird charcoal canister model 1505 ZV inside right hand fender. It has removable valve which I cleaned and...

Hi

I was told 2021, use B71.2290 which I did.
2023 timing belt too wide > replaced.
2024 use only B71.2010
2025... now use FPW9.55535/03

Could you please crosscheck with my VIN?
vr3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

Do you recommend testing the belt throughout the year with a belt width tool? In addition to the yearly service.

Thank you!

hello. does anyone know how to remove the blower fan? mine unfortunately broke after cleaning the air conditioning... i.e. when I move the fan it turns but after a while it stops. I turned it to the left and it is loose but will it come out like that?

Our Peugeot 207 with the 1.4 8v TU3A KFV engine appears to have reached the end of its life.

The problems are:
1. Major excessive oil consumption (1 litre per 100 miles) and lots of exhaust smoke
2. Engine is barely running now - no surprise when burning this much oil!
3. Loud squealing noise when the engine is put under load

I was going to...

Got some good advice from the forum to my post of the 16th this month. (diagnostic tools)
I spoke with EasyDiagnostics, very helpful person but advised their newer interface will not work on my 2015 Boxer Van (2.2 Ford Puma engine) So I am back on the roundabout again.
He did send a spec for what I would need to run Diagbox for my model of Van and...

Hello everyone,

I am looking to replace the right hand side driveshaft (the long one) for a new. Was wondering if there is a technical guide on how to remove it or at least some steps to work out the wishbone setup.

Thanks again,

Hi, our Peugeot 206, 1.4i 55kW (TU3JP) started ticking from top of the engine when it is up to temperature (around 80°C). It sounds almost like the valve clearence is bad, but I have checked it twice and it's absolutely spot on. Oil pressure it 2,5 bar, which is quite good too (ideal would be around 2 bar, but dangerous is over 4 bar). The oil is...

Hi my Peugeot 207 1.4 hdi 2010 showed a low particular level - I had had this before (4 years ago) so changed the Eolys bag which was low (blood bag), but the connector neck from the car to the unit has snapped off and I have tried to bridge with rigid hoses/silicon not sure if this will work, find out tomorrow.

Does anyone have the part number...

So my 2011 1.6 hdi Peugeot 3008 had a diesel smell coming into car when driving. On inspection seen a large build up of carbon around the injectors so figured there could be one leaking, also noticed a leak from the egr where it bolts onto to back of the cylinder head. So took off the egr valve and found a missing gasket, replaced that and cleaned...

Hello everyone. I have a Peugeot 508 2011 1.6 hdi. The start/stop system is working fine, but I have two issues:
1. The ECO counter on the screen in the image never counts the time in minutes and seconds while the start/stop system is active. It is always showing zeros. Also the green Eco symbol on the instrument cluster is never on or flash while...

Hello,
so my BSM has failed on my 2005 407 with 136 hp petrol 2-litre engine. I have purchased a second hand unit so the car runs great now,
but i would rather find a brand new one, wich seems impossible since they don't make them anymore.
So my question is: can i replace it with another unit?
The original numbers are: 6500CG BSM-L02-00,...

Little by little I have been getting used to the new Pug, my first petrol machine in over 25 years so the difference in torque was noticeable and to be honest this reminds me more of a sports car than a shopping trolley. Now to the question. After a long very wet winter I decided to try out the roof drop down procedure. The guy I bought it from...

Good afternoon all Im suffering with a p0443 canister electro valve open circuit on my 207cc 1.6vti, i located the purge valve only to find there's no wiring connected to it, 🤷??? ive tried to locate the wire to no avail 🫣, does anyone know in what location i should be looking to find it?

Any help would be brilliant

Just to give a little bit of context: Decided to clean the EGR Valve. Resulted in exploded Vacuum hose to the EGR, air and vacuum hoses taken out. That was replaced but it was also found that it was leaking exhaust and it was coming from 1 screw missing from the EGR cooler and then 2 screws were loose. All repaired and fixed. Car runs fine and...
