Hi All - Can anyone help please?

I have a Peugeot Boxer 2.0HDI (Boxer 335 Pro L3H2 Blue HDI) which is giving out large amounts of white smoke from the exhaust when the engine is warm.

We purchased the van a couple of weeks ago and had no issues while running locally, we took the van on a long run approx. 200 miles and about 30 miles from home...

Hi all,

This household could be venturing into Peugeot very soon.

The Missus' Smart failed its MOT and I did all the work. Drove it back to MOT station today and the rear brake pads were really smoking.

I told her it needed new pads, discs (which it did) and new calipers (which it probably didn't).

Anyhoo, it looks like the rear offisde hose...

Hello community,

welcome all! :-)

Can anyone show me a picture, where I can find the coolant temperature sensor at my 807, 2.0 16V, EW10 A with 140PS engine?
I'm searching for that green one in the attachment.

The car showing sporadically with a loud beep message - STOP temperature too high, after 3 seconds everything is fine again.

Thanks!...

Hey guys, I just got a new 2008 a couple of weeks ago and I noticed this low-key sound whenever I press the brake while driving. It is like air is being let in or out, similar to the sound of a small air pump, but quieter. I understand it has something to do with the brake servo and possibly vacuum booster. I did not notice it before probably due...

Hi all,

I have recently purchased a 1997 406 2.0 petrol estate (engine code XU10J2TE) and I have a few questions:

1. The car came with two keys - one fob (door and boot unlock buttons) and a plain key. The fob buttons work to unlock the central locking and both keys do the same. But if I want to start the car I need to press and hold the door...

Hi all,

I have had the above problem for some time. A fault code search showed C1326 rear LH speed sensor signal fault. I changed the sensor, which had worn badly but the fault persisted. When I took the disc off the magnetic ring was badly damaged so I cleaned the sensior mount and replaced the ring. The fault persists. The warning comes on on...

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a Peugeot 107 2 Tronic with a gearbox issue. I connected it to Peugeot planet and received the following error message:

Automatic transmission control unit
Permanent fault. Clutch actuator motor signal.

I have already replaced the actuator with a known good one, as well as the gearbox relay and checked all the...

Hi all, my 308 1.6hdi tsarted missing occasionally but has got progressively worse. First, repeatedly stalling at idle. Then, refusing to or being reluctant to start after stalling. After that, having no power when revving (ie having to give it a couple of thousand revs or more to pull away from a stop without stalling). Now, it will catch when...

Hi there,

Just found this forum, if you're on any of the GTi Facebook groups you may have come across my several posts in regards to this!

This may take a bit of explaining, so bare with me! In a nutshell, my car isn't boosting above maybe 4psi if I'm lucky. It's a 2017 (pre-facelift) 308 GTi 270hp with the EP6FDTR engine.

I am going to add a cruise stalk to my daughters 2007 207 Sport. I have popped of the trim and the connector on the column has 8 contacts. Does this mean I can use a stalk with the memory function or did all the connectors have 8 pins and some were simply not connected on the vehicle? Thanks.

Ive had a few ODB codes randomly come up, trigger the MIL light and suspect there is a common loom plug / connector that is loose or needs a clean (eg the poor contact below gives it away)

Codes are

P0180 Diesel fuel temperature signal fault : Coherence
P0181 Diesel fuel temperature signal fault : Poor contact
P0183 Diesel fuel temperature...

Hello everyone.

I am trying to fix my 2010 Peugeot partner Dangel. It is a bit tired and I think I have to service the entire drivetrain.

Are there any service manuals for Dangel drivetrains? I am trying to fix it at dealership, but those guys openly admitted they do not know how it works and we can't even agree on basic components in the...

Hello all,

I know this subject has been dealt with before. I seem to have no clearances on some of my valves, leading to very difficult cold starting - a known problem with these engines. Can anyone tell me a source of replacement shims, and also the special tool I understand is required in order to swap shims without having to remove the...

Hello All,

I’m hoping to benefit from your expertise. My wife has had her 2010 207 Sport Auto for 11 years, bought with 6k miles, now done 42k. Peugeot main dealer serviced, then by a good recommended Indy. Car has never missed a beat in 11 years. About 800 miles ago got an anti pollution warning. Fault codes from Diagbox were P0014 and P11A8,...

Hello, I am new to the forum today, I am a Norwegian so please forgive me my French .

My car is a second hand 5008 1.6 BlueHDi 2016.
I am not happy with the late start of washer pump for the windscreen, wipers are starting before washer.
I am looking into the possibility to put in a toggle switch to start the washer pump in advance.

Hello,

got this trouble code on a Peugeot 508 2017, 1.6l petrol, 165BHP - Couldn't find any useful info about it on the forum as well.

thanks for your input.

I know that the oils in this gearboxes should last a lifetime.
But I think my car i almost on its second life time 😁

It has traveled 380000km now and lately i sounds like the gears mostly from neutral to first gear clonks a little louder. And the oil and job is not such a stretch either.

Is this a waste of time or should i do it ?
I guessed that...

Hi could i please request some info regarding tightening torques of the clutch and flywheel ? As the kit from valeo doesn't include any instructions.

I need the torques for the flywheel bolts and the torques of the spring plate.

Hi,
Is there any possibility to hide both features; Active Safety Brake and Blind Spot Sensors of a Peugeot 3008 GT-Line 2018 model.
The mirrors are having Blind spot icons at the edges but they are not working and not showing in the i-cockpit.
Also Active brake is not working.

Hi all,
I have a 2004 206 with the 2.0 HDI. I'm very interested in fitting cruise control and apparently it's possible to simply fit an OEM cruise stalk and activate it with peugeot planet?

I removed the plastic cover around the steering column (which has a space for a cruise stalk, blanked off) and there's a PCB with connections for the stalk....

Hello!
I have been leasing a Peugeot for 2 months, and in fact the car 1.5 months stood in the garage.
First, it turned out that the car had a defective valve train - it was replaced by the seller.
Now there was a problem with wavy revs. It manifests itself as a rev ripple visible on the recordings, along with a slight jerking of the engine while...

Hi.

Peugeot 308 1.6 88kw '17 t9. The engine starts and stalls immediately.
Diagbox gives trouble codes:

P1632
P2062
U1007
P0610

Smells like bad ecu?

Hi, new here and saw really useful info on some old threads.

I have a 58 plate Peugeot 308 1.6 VTI and back in Jan when we had the really cold weather I got the dreaded Depollution System Faulty message and an engine warning light.

It cleared itself after a couple of days and then came back and has stayed back since.

The car starts and runs...

Hi,

New Peugeot owner, first time poster. Im changing the front left drive shaft on my Peugeot Expert and as such will be needing to refill the transmission fluid.

I assume most of the oil will drain out when i remove the drive shaft or will i actually need to drain the transmission fully from the plug?

If so then i wonder about the size of...

Dear Owners,

I came up with the idea of buying a portable 12-volt to 230-volt inverter and using it to ozone the cabin annually and vacuum the interior with a household vacuum cleaner in the garage.
Is it safe for the car's electrical system to connect the inverter directly to the car's battery and use it while the engine is running?
One and...

Hi everybody,

I try to find the right driveshaft seals for my 6 speed gearbox but the major car part sites keep suggesting me the wrong stuff for a different type of gearbox.

I'm looking for diveshaft seal numbers for my 2015 308SW 1.6 bluehdi with 6 speed manual gearbox ML6C ? or 20MB39 ?

Thanx in advance,

Bart.

I have install the original rear camera on my 308 t9 from '15. Wires were already in the trunk so just plug n play.
I tried to set camera to active and that passed succesfully but not for the SMEG+
I got error 415 in diagbox while put video signal on.
Bsi and other ecus were not any problem, only smeg. Someone can help me?

Hi, I need a help.

My 3008 bluehdi activ 120cv has problems, I has alarm error of fixing the engine immediately. I did a diag it says additive level is loo, but physical it full with oelys oil.

I need to know if the problem comes from additive pump or something else? Please I need advice.

Hello All

First-time poster!

Just to ask if anyone has some advice regarding checks I can carry out on our 207 1.4 HDi. Here's the complete background:

Parked the car outside for a couple of days (in some very cold weather) to carry out a replacement of rear silencer exhaust mount and associated band strap. Before this, the car started and ran...

After some Googling and trawling forums, I’m feeling a bit pessimistic before asking for help with this.

I recently bought a 2014 208 Active Vti 1.0. Had the bonnet up on the day of purchase (opened while I was there and appeared to work fine). Came to open it today for the first time just to top up the screen wash, nada. No click when I pull...

Hi all,

I want to replace the clutch on my 308SW T9 1.6 bluehdi now i was wondering did anybody do that job themselves ?

The stealer charges 1600 euro for the job but i can buy the parts myself for 485 euro's ( valeo 837106 DM flywheel and clutch )

I do have all the tools needed for the job, but would it be possible to finish the job in 1 day...

Hi good people, hoping someone can shed some light on this....Bit of a long story!
An elderly friend has a2010 3008 2.0hdi which was starting and running fine after having a faulty injector replaced. The car was then parked up in daytime. The following day a neighbour said that the headlights had been on overnight, (only headlights, not tail...

Hello, the car is Peugeot 508, 2011, 2.0 163HP. After starting a car, sometimes immediately, sometimes after few minutes of driving a lot of faults appear - most of them about Intersystems CAN (communication fault with ESP ECU, One of parameters present in BSI datastream is invalid, Loss of communication with the ABS/ESP module, Speed of rotation...

Hi all. Had my 2016 Expert 2.0 130bhp since May 22. It's always smoked at startup but always cleared pretty quickly. Heater plugs have been replaced but no change. I was going to sell it this week, January Winter in the UK where the temps got below zero. The battery has taken a beating and may need replaced. Voltage at rest is 12.4 and it barely...

Hi good people

I’m trying to get to the source of a problem for my daughter’s boy friend’s Scudo van , I’m a competent home mechanic who has built a car from scratch and fitted it with Suzuki Motorbike throttle bodies with attendant aftermarket Ecu .

The scudo broke down and wouldn’t run properly let alone drag itself along, RAC diagnosed EGR...

Hi all....hoping someone can give me some advice. I'm quite handy but still very much a learner.
My 2005 206 is used to get me to work and back, 1.5 miles each way, I've had it for about 6 months and already had to bugger about with the coil pack and injectors. In honesty, I've enjoyed getting me hands mucky and learning about the car, the bloody...

Im trying to figure out why my car is not stopping with start/stop. First issue was that the robot gearbox was not programed when the cluch was changed in a workshop (Peugeot Workshop 😔). I tried to talk to them about it but woth no success. I fixed that but one myself with diagbox.
The reason i dont understand is this:
no electromotor...

Hi to everyone as new to the forum, I have a 207cc equipped with 5FW engine and 385000km. VIN number is VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff], I replaced the engine with a 5F01 and it works perfect. My only concern is one extra sensor from the oil pump. Does anyone know if it’s just a sensor or a solenoid witch control the pressure at high rev?Any suggestions will...

Hi!
My fog light switch has gone dodgy on my Comms 2000 unit on my 2006 307 SW 2.0HDi. I bought a second hand one that looks exactly the same, has all the same plugs etc. I have just fitted it to the car and it doesn't work. Are they actually coded to the car?? It even throws up electronic ignition faulty. None of the switches work either. Do I...

Hi everyone,

I'm new on the forum and I'm not a technical genius. I have a 2013 Peugeot 508 RXH Hybrid4 diesel/electric car (this is my first French car) and I was wondering if there is any possibility / button combination / trick to display a rev counter on the dashboard? I mean there is a combination to reset the oil service so maybe someone...

Hi all,

Rumours that PSA will change (again) the oil spec.. Now, from 0w20 to....?
Anyone knows anything?

I’m new to the forum and looking for advice on a recently purchased 2014 208 petrol Active 1.0. The car is one owner from new with just 20k miles. I’m happy with it in every respect but want to future proof it as much as possible. Apart from the obvious consumables like tyres, battery etc., I’m particularly wondering about replacing timing and...

Hi, my Peugeot 206 1.4hdi consumes about 6L/100km combined (advertised 4,3L/100km). My version is without oxygen sensor(lambda) and MAP sensor, only MAF. Recently changed oil, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, egr blocked and turned off in software. Only faulty codes are: p0500
Thanks for every answer!

I look after my 92 year old nieghbours 2005 206, last year he done 273 miles, more than usual as typically it's under 250 miles a year!

Anyway, just had it MOT'd again, passed no real problems apart from this advisory note.

Hi everyone,

Missing a subframe bolt and need the part number for it to get a new one from the dealer. (or is there a better place to get a new one?)

Does anyone have access to service box and can get me a diagram of the bolts and their part numbers please?

Many thanks in advance

'18 2.0l boxer

Does the rocker cover also contain an oil catch can/strainer as well as the pvc valve/diaphragm?

Also, can the actual pcv diaphragm be replaced on its own? (the round cap on covering this part doesn't seem to be removable??), instead of replacing the whole rocker cover?

Hi,
I am curios if anyone experience same things as me while driving the EAT8. It feels like there is no low revs mode - cruising.
My previous car was with an older Aisin box and when driving probably with 20,30 km when I lift my foot from the gas it was cruising on 3rd gear for example with engine running on idle.
On the EAT8 as soon as I move...
