Fuel additive level too low error

Green click fit connector with blue paint

Hi Simon, ok, so your build date is 12530.

This means your vehicle should be using EOLYS Powerflex additive. Your additive tank should have a Blue cap / click fit connectors for clarification.

Walker supply this fluid product code 80620 which is a 3L kit.

I am trying to work out the correct fluid for a Peugeot 4007 with a build date 12996 (June 2012)
I believe this indicates Eolys Powerflex.

However the click fit connector has GREEN release buttons, but there is a dab of blue paint on the click fit housing....
Can anyone confirm the factory use of dabs of blue paint to override the green click fit connector?

It's Powerflex for this build date. You never go on the click-fit colours, because they can use either colour.

Further to my earlier post my vin is VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

I think it’s the pouch I need, best to buy a pouch on eBay or refill the one I have?

[GiveMeABreak]

You have a pouch system in this vehicle - these are NOT intended for refill as the pouch will likely tear on extraction ' refit and you don't want that stuff on you.

You require a 1Lt Powerflex pouch.

Thanks for that, I guess that pouch is 12 years old now so a new one would be best.

Is this the one for my car ?

It is.

Be aware you will also need a professional level diagnostic tool to reset the additive counter, or the engine ECU will not know you have changed it and this will lead to issues. The additive is NOT physically measured, so relies on being told it has been replaced and reset.

Note: I've added the above as a separate post as you may not have read the additional bit I originally added to my post above.

I don’t have that tool, but figure a decent garage will be able to reset that for me once I change the pouch out

[GiveMeABreak]

No problem, just make sure they do it properly - as we've seen people do this and the garages can't always do it correctly, leading to warnings and messages further down the line when it thinks the pouch is empty again and will cause issues.

Probably be a good idea to make a note of the mileage I swapped it out at incase of future probs then
