French Car Forum

Here's a strange one for you. My C.T. tester (MOT in UK) pointed out that my high brightness rear fog light is on the wrong side, RH. It is supposed to be on the LH side for a French registered car. So somehow it didn't get spotted when the car was first imported here from UK. I wonder if anyone has worked knows if the side can be changed without...

Hello all.

I am stumped about the Eolys fluid business. I have searched the posts here and also Google.

I have a 2017 Peugeot Boxer, 2.0 BlueHdi 160 bhp. I am being advised that I should check the PAT fluid level, however, I have no idea where the tank is on the van.

I have the Adblue tank, and have even been under the van looking for another...

I'm chasing an intermittent kangarooing/shuddering issue, mainly when the engine is warm and under load.

Symptoms:

Hello
I've got a strange issue on my 407 1.6HDi.
When stood overnight, at start up it sounds like it needs to build oil pressure/fill the filter. Just like after an oil change (light rattle).
Does not do it after a work day, so time dependent.

History: Recently re-sealed the oil filter/oil cooler housing + new filter and oil (Purflux filter and...

Hi All
I’m hoping someone else has had this problem, ok I’ve got a Peugeot Boxer 2001, and I’ve noticed whilst fitting a new speedo cable that oil is leaking around the plastic retainer which goes into the gearbox, I’ve fitted a new rubber O ring seal thinking this will do it unfortunately not , so I thought I’d ask on here as people has helped me...

Hello guys,

I have a 2015 308 SW II with 1.6 BHY diesel engine. The car seems to have had it's ECU(?) remapped to ignore DPF and EGR errors.

I want to restore the car as original and replace DPF and SCR catalyst if they are found to need replacing. My mechanic says he is not an expert and getting original files from Peugeot is very costly....

Hi!
Long story short: I had my injectors replaced. The first run after that was super good. Smooth and steady. Then they were coded with Texa. Now when cold the car loses power, there is white-grey-ish smoke (more smell that visual) and you can clearly hear the injectors. This happens up to 40-50C and then all runs ok. The injectors are audible...

So I have just done an engine swap and it sounds like it's down a cylinder.

Injectors 1 and 4 were remanufactured units from PFJ injectors 2 and 3 were tested and passed but it looks like number 2 might now be dead. Flow correction is constantly 15mm3

Screenshot of data. Am I right?

My Dec '99 Pug 806 Hdi has given me great service since I bought it in 2002
For about 6 years it's been pretty much mothballed with only about 1,000 km per year usage, mainly on trips to the tip where she's really usefull.
Because of the above it's not had a spanner on it for ages & the whilst it still passes the 2 yearly CT (MOT) the list of...

After battery going flat speedo now shows kph, how to change back to mph
thanks Joe

It looks like the old parts number lookup service is no longer functioning. I have been using a website called partsouq.com/ . It has well-detailed drawings and lists part codes for all the things on the drawings. Using those codes I have been able to track down almost all the parts I need.
Today I find that I can't enter the site without setting...

Hi all,
I recently did some work on driveshaft so needed to drain gearbox oil. Refilling it through breeder valve at top of the box. Long story short I took battery out for 2 days. After connecting it noticed that my folding mirrors stopped folding when locking the car. Didn’t bother me much at the time but then noticed that even when cold start...

Just a short post on my experience with Febi parts on a 2012 208 1.4d.

Track rod ends x2
Lower arms X2
Drive shaft seals x2

The car has covered 20k miles since and I've just noticed one of the lower...

Ok,

I have persistent brake squeal on our 309 DTurbo. This only occurs on very light braking.

To rewind a bit we replaced front pads and discs mainly because the front right pad set had significantly more wear than the left. The calliper sliders on right were binding.

Car uses Girling callipers

On fitting the parts, I freed up (or I thought I...

First thing, I'm not sure where to put this, so it is here in the Peugeot forum because the problem is with my 307. I'm sure that it will be moved to the correct forum by an ever-vigilant moderator.

Neither the driver's side exterior mirror nor the heated rear window of my 307SW are heating. The passenger side exterior mirror is heating. Tracing...

I have not been successful in repairing the radiator of my 205 td.

The price of new ones are crazy.
The original rad is 55mm thick.
I can buy an aluminium rad at a great price but it is 42mm thick, whereas an alu one of 55mm runs to 300€ plus

Would the fact that it is alu and new maybe mitigate against the fact that it is slimmer ?

Hi all,

Hoping someone can help clear up a genuine mix-up on my oil spec.

Hi

I was told 2021, use B71.2290 which I did.
2023 timing belt too wide > replaced.
2024 use only B71.2010
2025... now use FPW9.55535/03

Could you please crosscheck with my VIN?
vr3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

Do you recommend testing the belt throughout the year with a belt width tool? In addition to the yearly service.

Thank you!

Hi everyone.

Hope someone can help please? I am rebuilding dv6fcu in peugeot expert. I have followed torque specs when placing bearing caps on. At 10nm on the bearing bolts crank rotates freely. When the 15 m6 bolts are tightened to 8nm and the bearing bolts are backed off 180 degrees and then tightened to 30nm the crank will no longer rotate....

I have no qualifications in engineering,but I KNOW that the Prince Engine in my RCZ 1.6 is designed to run too hot.It might help with emissions and aid direct injection,but it thins the oil,aiding and abetting the terrible oil consumption of that engine,and bakes the plastic components.
I saw a post on the site whereby a member ran a wire from the...

Hi,

Have problem with a 407 1.6hdi.
The code is p0069 and I have checked the map sensor and its fine. The fault pop up direct when the ignition is turned on, without starting the engine.

Hi
Think I need a new coolant temperature sensor on my 2015 308SW 1.6 BlueHdi, engine code DV6FC
Dash gauge reads 90c even when cold and dash lights up like a Christmas tree and warns me to STOP the car. Had a fun 800 mile trip back from France in limp mode the whole way!!

Anyone know where the sensor is located on these cars or is it a permanent...

Can anyone recommend a suitable adhesive to stick the cover back on the outer rear light of my Peugeot 307cc, This seems to be a common problem, they appear to be heat welded at the factory but it wasn't very successful. I tried clear silicon adhesive sealer but it caused the lenses to crack and eventually crumbled and lens fell off again. I've...

I need to replace the front suspension roll bar links on my 307CC and doing a search for the parts I see a vast number of the correct part available by different manufacturers. For instance:Ridex, Monroe, Delphi, First Line, QH, SKF, TRW, FAI, Borg & Beck Febest, etc. The prices vary from about €9 to €22. There are loads more makers names that I...

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.

Hi all, my friend has an issue with his 407sw 2.0HDi
The engine management light comes on after 3 cycles of starting the engine. The engine loom was replaced at some point but from what I have heard it's come from a coupe model. I don't know where to go from here as we've tried 2 MAF sensors so I'm sure it's wiring. Anyone know what the pin out is...

Hello everyone,

My car has 44,000 km on it, and I was about 1,000 km late for the oil service. Afterwards, I started hearing a rattling-like noise when I press the accelerator, similar to the sound in the video.

Does anyone know what might be causing this issue?

can I put in a 308CC steering wheel into a normal 308? both steering wheels are just the regular airbag ones, not the later ones with controls on.

I suspect yes, just want confirmation.

Changed timing chain on ep6 engine. There is a tolerance gap up to 2.5mm between the intake and exhaust locking tools on the instructions. Should the intake tool be bolted down or not? as this makes a big difference to the gap
