It is possible Alan - the trouble is that PSA used a whole lot of interchangeable injection systems for their engines - so determining which one means trawling under the hood if the diagnostic won't identify it, but then if there is a problem with the board, it's not going to help much down the road with the other things either :(

No image Alan - you'll need to upload it to an image hosting site like Photobucket (basic accounts are free) and that will generate the IMG code that you paste back into your post.

There's a guide here - I will be updating it soon, but it will give you the picture (so to speak) :-D

No.

Alan, you need to have that image hosted on a site such as PhotoBucket.

There's a guide here
Shout up if you need any assistance with it.

Image any help would be appreciated.

You nearly got it Alan, I just had to redo the link.

When you view your picture in photo bucket theres four links to the right of it. If you click the one labelled IMG it will copy and you just need to paste that into your post. Hope that makes sense.

Alan, I think you have the 2.0 RHM Bosch variant, as this is the code in your VIN.

Yes it was by pc, theres a little grey chain button above the pictures as well. You should see it on a tablet, press it and the four links appear, IMG is at the bottom.

Hope your additive reset goes to plan.

Hi guys. Made a bit of progress today. Got as far as after sales then particle filter then reinitialize of total additive amount. It then says read then delete the additive total quantity parameter, I tried all sorts of things but could not see how to do this. However I did manage to open the BSI ecu and the diesel additive ecu and had a root around in those but couldn't find any levels or amounts that could be altered. I also came across a help screen for resetting additive level which I will screen print tomorrow.

The RPO will be one of the numbers on the tyre pressure sticker.

My RPO number is 10402, but the site asks me for a code provided by technical support.
