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

Disruption to Parts Service

This has caused some problems for organisations like ours and the Team are currently looking at the best way forward. This...

405 Radio?????????????

by reblack68 » 17 Feb 2004, 02:10

First post

look at the display with a torch when you turn it on, you might find the display backlight isn't working.
Do you have to enter the code every time, if so there's something wrong.

Last post

I have an 89 405, and it is equipped with an anti theft radio. However, when i turn it on, there is no display there... it usually says CODE but it says nothing now. Also... the heater control knobs do not light up when the rest of the car's controls do.
Could this just be a blown fuse???

405 Tdi (96 N plate) turbo lag?

Just to add, several times the turbo has been allowed to boost to the atmospehere... I assumed this would mean the turbo having no pressure at pressure side would not actuate the wastegate, so the turbo would over-spin.

Hi,
You do not need any special tools, I seem to remember that I used some tent pegs(aluminium rods about 1/8 dia - yes imperial!!) as my 'special' tools. I read the Haynes manual & removed the unit to repair the tracks behind it. Cant give exact details now as I hit a stag & the car is no longer!
Hope this helps

No 306 ever had a pollen filter, not even the ones with air-con. If you look at the service schedule, it covers lots of models, not just the 306. I know the later 405's had pollen filters, perhaps it refers to this.

immobiliser problem

by Dave Burns » 02 Feb 2004, 01:37

First post

Yes thats the immobiliser and if you don't know the systems four digit code then its certainly immobilised.
The only way round it apart from stabbing at the code and hoping you find it, not very likely given the number of permutations and the lengthy lock out on entering three wrong attempts, is to fit a new engine management ECU with a known or...

ive just bought a pug 306 xsi from an auction the starter price was very low as there was no keys or any info books the problem i have is obviously i need a new barrel and key but the question im asking is.... does the car have a factory immobiliser built in as there appears to be a push number code panel just in front of the gear shifter if so...

wishbone bushes or balljoints. Jack the front of the car up and check for excess play.

Are your light grey or yellow in brigth daylight (lights switched off). If they look dirty, you might want to try unclipping the headlamp lens and giving the internals a wipe. If the reflectors are yellow (chrome reflector faded), then replacemnt is the only option.
As a cheap attempt you may want to try oiling the jammy lock, might just loosen up...

First post

It could be the emergency cutoff. This can be fairly sensitive on some cars. I know of one model (Fiat?) which had the switch mounted under the passenger seat, which was good for keeping it dry but it could be set off by violent adjustment of the seat position.
I assume you do not have the owners manual?
Some cars have a sticker (often behind...

406 wipers

by jet_andy » 29 Jan 2004, 00:38

I have an intermittent fault with the wipers. Twice I've had it booked to be looked at by the dealer, but it cleared itself each time before I got there. It will some times be fine for a week or so, and then be faulty for a week or so. It fixes itself at any time, whilst driving - one minute the fault is there, next it's not.
The problem is that...

306 heavy steering

by kevin » 27 Jan 2004, 18:04

First post

I had a similar problem on a 309d with manual steering. I changed the front strut top mounting and bearing assembly and this eased the problem slightly. Remembering the larger and heavier the engine in the front, the heavier the steering will be.
Assuming the tyre condition and pressures, wheel allignment are ok and the correct size tyres are...

Last post

I had never driven a modern car with so stiff steering (this particular 1993 1.6XL did not have PAS. Is this common for these vehicles or is this an indication of a problem?

306 Stiff clutch pedal

by solara » 27 Jan 2004, 14:20

First post

Replacing the clutch cable usually helps.
Caused by clutch cable running near hot exhaust and drying out over time.

I drove a friend's 1994 1.6XL 306 and noticed how stiff his clutch pedal was. What is the most likely cause and is there an easy fix ?

306 bendix or girling ?????

Get your hands on a haynes manual, it has pictures of both types of drum brakes to help you identify which one you have. Difficult to describe differences via text.

Peugeot 306 - poor ignition

by Sl4yer » 25 Jan 2004, 05:57

First post

Surely a 1995 car will be injected?
Does it idle and run OK once it starts? Its probably worth checking your fuel and air filters as a starting point. Maybe the ignition HT leads as well.

Last post

Hi,
I have noticed that my Peugeot 306 is not starting as well as it use to. It is a 1995 1.8xt auto petrol, with automatic choke. In all weather conditions, it has started with no problems, but recently I have to keep the ignition key turned for at least 5 seconds before the engine catches and starts.
The spark plugs have been changed and tested...

405 leaking

by Robert Milton » 28 Feb 2004, 00:15

First post

Had same trouble on a 405. Turned out to be blocked drain tubes, one each side at front running from sun roof gulley, terminating in front wheel arches forward of doors. Need to be carefully blown through, also open sunroof & clear any debris, leaves etc.

Last post

My 405 TD estate is leaking water into the headlining which is starting to balloon in the back, and drip onto the rear seats.
At least I assume it is, I haven't seen it doing it, but the rear seats were really wet underneath when I tipped them up today to put a bicycle in the back, as you do. May even be coming in from the boot area, somehow....

peugeot 106 cold starting problem

by silverline » 28 May 2004, 21:36

First post

your fuel leak could be the cause as the engine will be sucking in air as well as fuel and diesel engines dont like that! if you fix that and the problems still there i'll have to agree with the compression loss theory!

Last post

My Peugeot 106D (1996 and only 55,000 K) has a cold starting problem. I have checked glow plugs, battery and cold start system, which seem to be working ok. Once started and run for 5 minutes it will run smoothly (even after stopping the engine and starting again after 3 hours or more). A garage has told me that a likely cause is low compression...

There have been no replies to this one but some of you may be wondering what has been going on.
The problem seemed to go away after putting the ECU into learn mode, but yesterday we had a complete ignition failure.
The engine died and required the RAC to turn out (after 2 hours I might add).
The RAC man tried a diagnostic which was unsuccessful...

This is my daughter's car so the discription of the problem is 3rd hand.
Over the last 2 months the engine warning light has come on for a short time while driving. This has been on the odd occasion and at the same time the engine power seems to reduce slightly. A hand held diagnostic test has been done but no faults were reported.
