which diagnostic tool for 306 hdi

[scfc_151]

I was hoping someone can recommend a scanner tool that would work well with my 2001 306 hdi?

My engine management light has come on again and im getting tired of paying £40 for a diagnosis. All I want to do is be able to reset the codes and then read the 'actual' codes that come back on

Ive seen a lexia 3 mentioned which I think is around £80 a few times but ive also seen an obd2 scanner for £30 on lonelec.co.uk

cheers

The Daig2000 is the Peugeot equivalent of the Citroen Lexia.

There are a few members that have them. If you post your location one may offer to read codes and demonstrate it for you as a guide to obtaining one of your own.

with the HDI it depends whether it has a Seimens ECU or a Bosch one.

The Seimens ECU won't work with cheap generic scanners at all. The Bosch one will work but you only get "emissions related" error codes. For example if the cam sensor is disconnected the engine won't start but a generic scanner doesn't read that code.
