A big thank you to Mike T and Toby

Post by pugsick »

Hi,

I am sorry if i have posted this in the wrong section but i had to say a big thank you to MikeT and Toby for there help today with my 407.

With all my woes with the car it was so refreshing to meet people who genuinly share a passion to help others and share their knowledge (im a car numpty).

And some of you may ask haw much this cost me? Neither would accept anything from me just asked if i would be kind enough to make a donation to the FCF. I will do this later with thanks and pleasure.

Many thanks again. Top top blokes.

It was good to meet you. Sorry we couldn't get the DIAG on it. As I said, I had no idea the 407 wasn't on there.

I've looked at ServiceBox now. The sensor that was in the wrong place and with a loose hose clip seems to be FAP related which is telling. I could be mistaken but it does seem to be the pressure differential sensor...

The breather hose you require is part number 1192.WH and is £11.92 from Peugeot. I can't see it being any cheaper from elsewhere although do source the fuel and air filters from somewhere like GSF.

Good luck and keep us posted :D

Was good to meet you too. I'm embarassed the Diag does not cover 407's and didn't even think to check beforehand. :oops:

I'm sure you'll have no problem replacing those parts but if you prefer someone watch over your shoulder or need to borrow any tools etc, I'd be happy to assist.

Keep us posted and good luck.

I have this mental picture of two fellows turning up in the driveway "We're here to help with your Peugeot" then laying out a tarp and promptly spreading dismantled pieces of motor all over it.

But... Something's wrong: "Oh, so this isn't 22 Smith St? :shock: Sorry about that; we'd best be going now."
