Yes, then that should sort it. Had a quick look again, can't find anything cheaper at present. Think I just bought the two driveshaft seals (without smaller input shaft seal) a bit cheaper in the past.

Must be longer ago than I would guess as it's not showing in my eBay Purchase History that goes back 3 years!

Cheers again matt , all purchased

So i did read the 207 hasnt rear door speakers fitted, a scan revealed 2 faults both rear speakers open circuit . So off with one door card , no speaker talk aboit cheap

My Dad's 206 was the same, speaker grilles in the back doors but nothing behind them. Lowly LX spec on his, surprised the later 207 is equally Spartan!

QAG181064 QAG181063 these are part numbers for front suspension shock absorbers for 207. Diesel.

upper under bonnet strut nut 65nm
Ball joint to wisj bone arm 65nm
Sock strut clamp nut 75nm
Hubnut 175nm
Brake hose clamp to strut leg 17nm

I know, shocking considering most cars are fitted with 4 main speakers 2 front 2 rear, were going back to the early 80s lol

Be worth double checking those torque figures - I'm sure earlier Peugeot, front hub nut torque is huge (325Nm? From memory, will check Haynes in morning) - so just 175Nm sounds very low!

Might be correct, but wheel bolt torque I normally use 206 etc is 95Nm so your 207 figure of 120Nm is quite a way above that too. Again, I'll double check in morning (haven't a 207 manual though)

Figures from Haynes:

Wheel bolts torque:
306 =85Nm
307 =85Nm
406 =90Nm

(Seems I have been overdoing it a touch on all mine at 95!)

Hub nut torque:
Front, driveshaft nut:
306, M20 nut = 265Nm (think this is smaller engined models)
306 M24 nut =320Nm
307, only one value quoted =325 Nm
406 =325Nm


Rear, stub axle nut:
306
Drum brakes, Bendix + ABS =185Nm
Drum, not Bendix + van =200Nm
Rear disk=185Nm

307 =210Nm

406 =275 Nm

406 drop link nuts = 40Nm

So all the Haynes torque figures are higher for hub nut, lower for wheel bolt

I have always none my wheel bolts to 95 torques. May have to revise that.

It's probably fine, close enough. Those who lean heavily on the breaker bar or give it a good blast of the pneumatic impact wrench then wonder why they have stripped threads out the hub are in the ones who should give it more thought.

I always do them up with torque wrench, not because I worry I couldn't get them tight enough to not come loose, but because I picture myself having reduced the standard wheel brace to something like this:

And I don't fancy doing that, again! Particularly if is on the hard shoulder rather than at home! I also always add a little copper grease to the threads first time they come off in my ownership. Though I do understand others seem to worry about doing that??

I always use the torque wrench now too, to justify having it.
Was taught by my dad, a steam then diesel engineer, how to tighten bolts 'enough'.

[Huskyxantia]

This is for a 207 1.6hdi, seen 2 online videos both doing 170nm. They wasn't hard to undo tbh but they wasn't easy either if you know what im saying
