First post

Given the number of 'After-sales campaign' notices concerning Takarta Airbags I have been made aware of when looking up parts from PSA for members, I thought I would post a link to the following documentary that may be informative concerning the issue with these igniters.

According to Takata, the chemicals in the airbags’ explosive charge can...

My DS5, VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] should be eligible for recall, but my vehicle is in China and I cannot find the corresponding service provider. Could you please contact me officially and tell me how to handle this? ????_20251024002629_33_148.png

306 heater matrix?

by James.UK » 23 Mar 2004, 06:58

Sounds like a pin hole leak in your matrix.. Try Fortes radiator sealer first before you get into the more difficult solutions. And make sure you keep the coolant level high, you DONT want to get air in the system!

on way to work this morning, after about 2 miles, first smelt kind of rusty-antifreeze-watery smell (if you`ve smelt it you`ll know what I mean), followed very shortly by steam entering the car through the air vents. Noticed a trickle of water from the foot air vent.

306 TD water bleeding?

by batwad » 04 Mar 2004, 16:42

First post

The process is fully described in the Haynes manual, but assuming you've not got one, here's a couple of tips.
There are three bleed screws: one on top of the rad on the nearside, one on a coolant pipe that runs past the fuel filter housing and one at the bulkhead that is attacehd to a short length of pipe for improved access.
You'll need a header...

Please can anyone tell me the best method for bleeding the cooling system on a 306 TD. Thanks

306 headlights

by batwad » 27 Feb 2004, 21:03

I've been offered a pair of headlights from a late 306, so they're the all-in-one jobbies with the indicators and clear lenses. Does anyone know if they'll fit a phase one 306? Also, is it true that they're the same lights as fitted to the 406?

Last post

I have just been examining the 'plumbing' on my diesel engine and have found this cylindrial black thing in the fuel system.
It hasfour 'spigots' to whic are attached fuel pipes...one pipe goes to the fuel filter, one to the injectors, one to the injection pump inlet and one to the fuel return pipe.
What is it? Does it contain any moving parts?...

Peugeot 306 Wipers

First post

Three weeks later and I still got the problem but here's what have found out should anyone else be having same difficulties.
Havin found a wiper motor from local breakers, I have been advised it's probably the relay thats gone - seeing as the wipers still work full speed. OK so I bought a Haynes Maual to identify the correct relay but no help....

Am trying to work out if I need a new wi[per motor, or not, for my 306DT. Here's the symptoms:
Yesterday they slowly stopped working - eg. on slow and intermittent sweep they dragged themselves very slowly across the screen like the battery was dying (the engine was on though and it is a relatively new battery). They work ok on full speed though...

205xs idle problem

by red161 » 28 Feb 2004, 05:52

First post

I had a similar problem on a mates Ford XR2, it just would not idle at all, we checked a few things including the timing which was correct, I traced the problem to a breather pipe attached to the inlet manifold - it had a hole in it causing the engine to suck in air on idle. The pipe was fixed and it ran and idled like a dream.

Last post

Hi,
my 205xs, TU3S, won't idle smoothly unless the mixture screw is turned almost completely out. The ignition timing is set at about 10 degrees BTDC, I have just had a new ignition amplifier module fitted too.
Any ideas on what could be up?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Antony

Earthing points, perhaps ?
Any idea why my brake pedal pulses when the windscreen wipers trigger on intermittent ? I think something to do with the ABS electricals ( faulty ).
Wierd things aren't they !

heavy steering?

by richt353 » 25 Feb 2004, 17:28

First post

I've got a 306DT 98 and have always found the steering quite heavy. Good, new tyres helps. What made a big difference though was when it was last MOT'd and they had to replace the steering/suspension 'bushes'. Sorry I'm not precise ('bushes' was a definite word they used though). This made it drive like new. Still on the heavy side but much more...

205 Steering joint

by Dave Burns » 24 Feb 2004, 04:19

First post

These are mostly spline to spline, identicle both ends with a pinch bolt, should be no problem getting one from a dealer.
Doubt they will be a servicable item, they are usually pressed together or peened over.
Dave

Last post

205 (1994) has a universal joint in the steering column which is worn.
Can I replace just the joint or is it part of the column? Is it possible to refurbish the joint to save having to buy a new one?
Where can I buy a steering column joint? GSF don't stock them.

I fixed the same problem on my car yesterday! I removed the door button, got some pliers on the rod inside and pulled it up. The button was just sliding on the rod and not pulling it.

GTi or Mi16?

by nickm » 20 Feb 2004, 12:26

First post

definitely mi16, facelift shape

Last post

Just bought some Alloy wheels which were supposedly off a 106 GTi, but looking at them I'm pretty sure they're actually off a 405 Mi16; can anyone confirm which is correct?
Question 2 - what size/length/thread are the bolts, as I didn't get them with the wheels?

Injector Cleaning

by Dave Burns » 21 Feb 2004, 00:04

First post

Yes they just unscrew, 27mm injector socket required, loosen the pipes at the injection pump so they will swing clear, don't let any dirt get in at all.
If you are having problems with it and suspect the injectors, take them to a reputable diesel specialist, don't attempt any cleaning yourself, you might damage them, they need testing for opening...

Last post

What is the best way of cleaning the injectors on a Peugeot 1.9 diesel engine?
As far as I can see the injectors unscrew just like spark plugs after removing the connecting pipes. Is this so?
Once they are removed what is the best way of cleaning them?
Any gotchas when putting them back?

Courtesy Lights on 405

Haynes 405 petrol refers to locations as follows: -
Most are located under the facia, behind the main fusebox, and mounted on various brackets around the steering column.
What is your problem? No courtesy lights at all? Do they work on ANY door?
If they work on one door then you may have a mucky door switch, so take off and clean terminals and...

Does anyone know where the relay or control unit is for the interior courtesy lights?

405 TD Coolant Bleed Points

I replaced the anti freeze on my 405 gld and couldn't find them for looking.
I managed to put in about only 4 pints of 7 (approx!) required without a struggle, so in my diary i've noted to remove thermostat next time. Fill as much as possible without spillage then replace.
You can check the stat while it's out!
Bleeding it is a nightmare , but...

1994 405 SRDT with ECU.
Previously had 1994 Xantia TD without ECU.
Looking for the coolant bleed points, so far, all I have found is the one on the other side of the radiator.
Basically I have symptoms of a duff themostat, or more likely an air-lock in the coolant matrix.
Haynes for 405 diesels says there is a bleed point on the matrix-out hose....
