Hi All, I am thinking of buying a 508 for the wife a 2013 one.. What are the main failure points on them to look for. Is the 1.6 more or less reliable or is it much of a muchness.

Hi

I have dual climate control, everything works fine except i only have cold air on drivers side.
I have traced the problem to the mixer flap on drivers side
Is it possible to repair these or do i need an entire heating unit

Thanks in advance

HI,

I got myself a 207CC from 2007 and initially everything worked fine. However, recently the roof does not open complete any more: the windows go all down, the boot opens fully, the roof starts opening but stops after about 10 cm. I'm pretty sure one of the microswitches is the problem here, anyone know which one this specific is? I'm...

Hello there,
I have a Peugeot 206 and lately it starts up rough if it hasn't been driven that day, idling at 300-400 rpm then jumping to a normal 900 rpm after 3-4 seconds

It has to be noted that when the car starts up this way, the airbag light goes on, and when I restart the engine after this rough start it starts up normally, idling at 900...

Got a mk1 Peugeot 3008 1.6 BlueHdi that has a leak at gearbox on driveshaft seal. Just going to change both while at it and I am hoping someone will be able to shed some light on how much oil the gear box takes as I know you drain completely then refill with correct amount as there is no level on it.

Hi all, I'm new to the forum, so apologies if this is something obvious, but I've looked on several forums and haven't seen anything quite like this.

So I've had my Peugeot 2008 (2015 model) for just under a year. Its on about 64k miles. The previous owner serviced it every year and it seems like they really looked after it, but the past couple...

Well I thought it was about time to start recording any developing issues on Sylv's car and start a blog. May as well start as we mean to go on!

Hi, on our Peugeot 206 (1.4i 55kW, 2005, automatic transmission) the temperature gauge is not working. The coolant temperature sensor was faulty* (no data on the driver cluster, nor on diagnostics) and I changed it. After changing the temperature sensor, the data is shown in the diagnostics tool (Generic OBD scanner and clone of Lexia) but on the...

Hi, I've got a hyperactive alarm and just wondering if there's any common cause.
Alarm started false alarming a few weeks ago the first time I thought I'd left a window open a crack, then the next time when we had extremely heavy rain and hail. There's also a slow drip on the top of passenger window if rain is very heavy so I initially assumed it...

This came up in highway when i accelerated.Service light and repair needed in dash.When i stopped in traffic light, shut down engine and start again and everything gone.

Are the front driveshafts and engine/transmission mounts the same as a standard 2.0l AMT6 model? the vin no for my 3008 is VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff].

Hi everyone,
I refreshed the fluid of my AMN8 gearbox by already known method of draining around 3 liters 4 times and after that adjusting the level. In some of fhe forums I have read that after changing fluid, oil wear counter needs to be reset with Diagbox.
In Diagbox under repear menu I could not find any option for oil wear counter reset.
Even...

So I have diagbox and have multiple airbag ecu’s listed. Have tried a guy to do remote coding via the psa network and he also gets instrument cluster and airbag ecu failed to align and advised to try the foat version to see if the cluster will realign I cannot get it coded offline or online via diagbox v7.57 &9.58 anybody got any ideas?
Turns out...

Hi Experts,

Two short technical questions regarding 3008 1.5 Diesel - 2019, please....
1. Does DPF module come before SCR in the exhaust pipeline ?
2. Are DPF and SCR two physically separated modules ? (Can I replace one and not the other ?)

Thanks !!!!

I was driving home today in my 2001 Partner Combi 1.9d (without air con) and due to temporary traffic lights on the two busiest roads in the city, both of which are on my route without taking a 20 mile detour. When I got to the second set I was stuck in queues for around 20 minutes; during this time the coolant temp rose to where I would expect...

Hi,
Peugeot 3008 62 plate 65K miles
I set the cruise control to 70mph and it stays at that speed up or down hills.
If I put the cruise on 'pause', either by pressing the side button (cruise stack) or using the brake/clutch and go down by 10mph (to 60ish) and then just engage the cruise with the side button.
It engages but then the rev's go from...

Sigh.. Im starting to feel like I'm logging in more than Marc ](*,)

Short story: I had engine shake and a few miles later I had engine cut out at about 55 mph. Engine would not start until 30 minutes later. P0087 was the only fault on a simple obd2 scan (and ASR Antipollution fault on display). Drove fine afterwards. Engine still shaking though....

Hi all. Can anyone shed some light on how the rear door latch works? It's stuck in the locked position. I've managed to free off the loop section from the left hand door to open it up but it's well and truly locked on to it. the top and bottom latched all work on both doors so can I assume the actuator in the middle is kaput? Is it fused? could...

Changed the air filter on my 207 1.6 HDi today.
Air filter as you may well know is in a totally stupid place and whilst wiggling the box at the back of the engine, this thing fell off and down the back of the engine.
Anyone got any idea where it should live?

Hi we've got a 208 1.0l 3cyl petrol that's extremely flat on acceleration. Plugs and coils are new, the map sensor is also new. We've got some like readings and the ignition advance can go -10 to +10 degrees instantly. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Hi all,
My 308SW (2017) has developed the common battery/charging/all systems fault that seems to be due to a failing relay in the BPGA (part 9675350280).
I've watched a video that shows that replacement is simply a straight swap over.
However, two potential suppliers of the (expensive) part tell me that it has to be programmed and I'll need to...

Hi im new here because,
I have a peugeot 405 1.9td 1993 which I saved from a pentioner who wanted to scrap it.

Hi,

I have installed OEM tow bar and electric kit on 208 II from 2021. After installation and connection to the trailer the lights of course didn't work.

Hi all, got a Partner running on 3 cylinders. Turns out injector 2 had given up the ghost. Pulled them all & sent to Darwen Diesels (AMAZING guys :bl: ) who told me all injectors were reading 10 when they should be reading 150 to 190 (not 100% sure of the test, but I assume it's an electrical test as they are piezo). So 4 new injectors posted out...

Hi, the on / off button of my Peugeot partner 2017 is not working. The display is working, so are the other buttons on the radio which makes me think it cannot be the fuse. If I twist the same button the volume change shows up on the screen, so it is just on / off press that is not working. Any ideas on how to solve appreciated!

Hi all,
I`m new to the forum, and was wondering/hoping if there are any members with diagbox or pp2000 in my local area (Birmingham) that could reset my additive ecu ?
I have had the pouch refilled by my local garage, but they do not have any equipment to do a reset. I have the error message appearing on my dashboard every time I turn on the...

Hi!

Does anyone have experience with changing the fuses in the Peugeot RCZ (1.6 THP 2012) battery fuse box. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone has a story to share about how easy/difficult it is to access them. Maybe even pictures of the location inside the fuse box?

I have a Peugeot model 2008 for about 1Y (bought it new). There is the start/stop (works all the time) and the hill start assist after the start/stop (holds the car for 2s, to allow the engine to start after the start/stop). The hill start assist works well if the hill is moderate and above. However, if the hill is light, say 4%, the hill assist...

Hi there,
I need to top up my dpf additive and I'm worried about using the wrong grade of Eolys fluid for my 2010 Peugeot 3008. Can anybody advise?
Many thanks

Before I head off down the rabbit hole of trying to fix my 'P0087 above 3000rpm' problem, can someone confirm that I absolutely positively only have one fuel pump?
I'm pretty sure it only has the high pressure mechanical pump on the back of the engine and doesn't have an electric one in the tank.

For the last approx 50 years since I got my licence I have serviced all the family cars, new oil, filters etc plus replacing items as needed.

Can anyone advise me what this 30A fuse feeds please?

Engine bay fuse box on 1.6HDi DVC6.

I’d have thought it should have a nut on it but looks like it has never had one!

Will test it for potential issue but curious as there are some outstanding faults in the ECU which I am working through and the resolution of one could be VERY expensive....

Hello,

I have a 2012 Peugeot Partner e-hdi with a Semi Automatic gearbox, I'm looking for maintenance manuals and tips to look after these gearboxes.

Also could anyone confirm which transmission fluid these take and what are the intervals to change it?

Does the EGC need any maintenance or actuator fluids changed?

Thanks,
George

Hi
Could anybody tell me if it is necessary to prime the fuel system after the fuel filter has been changed and a pair of fuel injectors replaced, as on my engine I cannot see any priming bulb.
Is it somehow self priming or do I need a syphon arrangement to draw fuel from the tank and then push it back through the new filter removing the air, and...

So my fan blower has stopped working. It's mid summer and we're about to head to europe for a month. There is no aircon in this van so having the fan working at least is quite important.

It's a huge pain to get out (and I suspect even worse to get back in, with a set of not-very accessible clips and having to take much of the dash off to get at...
