ok, so thanks for all the help on my other post :)

I've got a knock when I'm travelling at low speeds, or if I'm coasting towards lights and touch the brakes it will do it. Over 20mph I can't hear or feel it.

I know knocks aren't exactly easy to diagnose over the internet but am stuck on this one.

It sounds like metal on metal. It's a 'clunk'...

Just got a Peugeot Boxer with 100.000 on the clock. Engine is 2016 2.0 bluehdi 130 (PSA DW10). Previously has had services done on time, next one is in half a year.

When I tried the car out before buying I thought the engine sounded fine but a few days later after driving it home it seems to me it's making a clicking or rattling noise, which...

Hello

This is a long shot but im hopeful,

I am mid-way through a 206 180 turbo conversion, forged engine, holset turbo, meth etc. im trying to put together a 6 speed gearbox strong enough for the 450 horses im aiming for.

I have done tons of research and found scraps of info on various forums, and so far what i can gather, it seems like the...

I’m not sure where this should be posted, but as both items are about Peugeot, here’s as good a place, I think/hope.

First, some notoriety for the marque. In a small city not very far from me, a Peugeot driver is due to appear in court next week after failing to stop when directed by police who then had to give chase. He was subjected to a...

One of the parameters present in a datastream sent by the BSI is invalid

What on earth does this mean? Pls help !!

Hi all,

I have this pesky 3008 1.6 THP 5FM (EP6CDTM), 120 kW 163 BHP.

It's persistently throwing a P0012 code. It's been to several garages and has had, quite literally, everything about the timing replaced.

Timing chain, done twice. New OEM Peugeot phaser.
New vvt solenoid.
New camshaft sensor.
New oil pump with solenoid. Actual and specified...

Symptoms

- Risk of particle filter clogging warning appears intermittently.
- Vehicle drives perfectly with no loss of power.

Hello. Can someone tell me based on the following chassis series VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff], if the air intake to the engine is with two air intake flaps (with by-pass), or with a single air flap, as the 2 variants are shown in the images. I don't have the RPO series of the car and on profile sites both variants are given, depending on the RPO code. Thank...

Hi all, cryptic heading perhaps. Mine’s a Peugeot 307 2003 with a broken belt tensioner. Nfu engine 1.6 dohc 109 hp. I have made a replacement which functions without the original properties. I understand the tensioner, called 5706H1, is very uncommon. Neither breakers nor spare parts dealers have this particular type, but rather the automatic...

Quick question.

I don’t have access to the car just now to check this myself & wont get near it until the weekend.

Does anyone know what type of bolt head is used on the calliper securing bolts. Is it just standard hex, or something like Allen or Torx? I’m sorted if it’s hex or Allen, but not so with Torx as I only have a few sizes.

I've got an error code of U1134 coming up on my peugeot 2008 1.6 diesel (2013 year).

I've read that it may have something to do with the stop/start system on the car which hasn't been working for a while, because I assumed I haven't done any long journeys for a long time.

I have a very long journey in the next few days and need advice on whether...

I've had a number of electrical issues on my 2010 207 1.6 Vti Automatic recently. The main ones being an ABS, power steering and speedo issue which I traced to a burnt out fuse box at plug 28V MR

I replaced the fuse box (same part number) and the 28V MR connector (soldered the wires) and this has solved the ABS issue however I now...

Hi!

Hi, Facing a problem with my Peugeot boxer currently where when it is cold there is a rattle, it comes from the top of the engine but seems to come from the whole top of the block. Once the engine is warm there is no rattle/very little rattle. First thoughts were timing chain, but if you read on you will see why with think this is not the case....

Just as the hot weather hit this week, the aircon on my 2012 Partner Outdoor (I pity everyone with the indoor edition) packed up. One day it was fine. The next, much hotter, day it wasn't.

I've just hooked up the Diagbox computer and am able to manually activate the compressor clutch. I also found out I can activate the aircon when the blower is...

I've recently bought a used Peugeot 2008 GT Line (2020) with a 1.5 diesel engine and ATN8 automatic transmission.
It's equipped with 12 parking sensors, blind spot monitoring, radar under the bumper, lane assistance, and safety brake, along with a camera for signs.
What my car missing is active cruise control, automatic parking, highway drive...

Not sure if anyone has come across this fault before. 2020 Peugeot expert central locking will lock all doors with the transponder fine. However it only unlocks the ns sliding door with the transponder. All other doors need to ge opened with the key in each lock. I have checked all fuses and selective door locking options all OK.

Hello,

I have got a Peugeot 406 2.1TD with the EPIC pump. It's recently started cutting out when up to temperature, particularly when returning to idle (e.g. at junctions). I'm suspecting it is something to do with the pump or pump electronics, but I was wondering if there is anything else to rule out.

I recently replaced the fuel pipe all the...

Hi all.

I had my AC system checked ( 5008 MK1 2.0 hdi 2011 )for leaks and the garage found out that the AC condenser has a hole and needs changing.

Bumper has to come off without a doubt , but do I need to remove the cooling fan as well? Coolant Rad brackets?

Hi everyone,

I need some advice regarding the Aisin AM6 (TF-80SC) 6-speed automatic transmission on my Peugeot 407 2.0 HDi. The car has covered 151,000 KM.

I recently changed the transmission fluid, but I am experiencing a severe shifting issue specifically between 3rd and 4th gear. When moving from 3rd to 4th, the gearbox completely loses drive...

¡Hello there!

It has been a year since I bought my wife a 207cc (1.6hdi from 2007) and since then we have
been unable to make it work fine. It has a low power condition that makes it impossible to
reach more than 60mph even full throttle in third gear... I have the same engine on a C4 and
I can confirm this one is completely off.

I have swapped...

Just fiited a new abs sensor ready for the CT this week and noticed some strange tyre wear. The tyres are dated 28th week of 2021 and the pressures are fine. They were tracked a couple of thousand miles ago and hardly moves. It's likely to do 300 miles in a day then sit for 2 months.

Hello.
Dear colleagues, for a Peugeot 5008, manufactured in 2010, 2.0 Hdi engine, engine code RHE, please tell me how the 4 injectors are numbered? Number 1 is at the gearbox and number 4 is at the timing, or number 1 is at the timing and number 4 is at the gearbox? I know that number 1 is at the gearbox and that's how I coded them with Diagbox,...

Hi there.

My alternator pulley flew off whilst driving yesterday! Only the hub remains (the part needing a special tool to remove). I want to order a replacement, but Autodoc lists several different sizes for my vehicle. I obviously can't check the existing pulley as it is no long present.

Is there a way forward? My VIN is VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] and...

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...

Ok everyone, we finally replaced our sadly crashed 2004 307SW with (wait for it) a gorgeous condition 2006 307SW! We get to keep the old one for parts and since they're both 1.6 TU5 petrol engines (my main selling point for buying the new one) we have lots of interchangeable bits. Here's to the next 20 years!

The guy who was selling it said the...

Hi lads,

I’m reaching out because I’m genuinely starting to believe my 508 Allure (2.0 HDi with the electric automatic handbrake) was built in a parallel universe. I’ve spent the entire day hunting, and it is absolutely impossible to find a replacement clutch master cylinder anywhere on this planet—aftermarket or genuine.

The physical part on my...

Is it possible to get information about the connections to the urea system, especially around the pump and nozzle? VIN: VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

Also, if possible: The car did not come with a rear camera, but I have an original one that I want to connect. I don't know if the connection for it is shown on this model. If it is, I would also be grateful...

Hi everyone, I have changed the rear reducer (differential) on my 508 RXH, now I have to do the airing on the cooling system, and I was told that there are like 4 or 5 points where to bleed the system, 2 under the hood, 1 on the electric motor and one on the inverter.
Has anyone done this before? or does anyone know the steps to take to bleed the...

Hello Everyone! Thank you for accepting me as a member! :)

First of all, I know that strictly speaking I am an outsider here, but I have an issue with a PSA group sister car, and thought that you kind folk could help me out.

Hi Everyone 🏁

Having run and tested various tyre setups on both a Citroën C4 (B7) MK2 and a 2012 Peugeot 3008 MK1 (which share similar PSA PF2 chassis geometry), I wanted to create a comprehensive resource regarding 16 inch tyre size upgrades. While the physical clearance boundaries listed here are specific to this platform, the core mechanical,...

With you. Diagbox won't connect to the seat. How do I turn on the seat heating? The seat mat doesn't heat, but the backrest does. Has anyone had this problem and knows where to look for the problem?

Good morning Everyone,

Please can you help me with my daughters 2014 Peugeot 208 1.2

Also what oil do I need?

About to do the rubber band procedure on my 2011 508. It has the 9HR lump, a DV6C mated to the MCP box.

I took a quote for the parts at the dealers, but wasn't entirely impressed by the pricing. They did advice me though, that the crank pinion should be changed. I'm pretty sure the car has this done at a recall about ten years ago, but it's a 50€...

Hi dear forum members,

Does anyone have removal procedure for the sunroof on a Peugeot 5008 MK2?

The procedure might be the same on a 3008 MK2.

If anyone has done anything similiar I would...
