how does the rad come out of a 308?, I have removed the top two brackets, I can just about pull the rad back but it doesnt seem to want to pull up and out of the way, are there two more brackets to undo at the bottom of it? I thought it just had a couple of pins that go through rubber mounts at the bottom and it should just pull up, I dont want to...

Hi Everyone,
I am new to this forum so pardon my mistakes If I do.
I have a 2014 Peugeot 308 2.0 hdi.
Background: It has been to one of the garages here when it had non-start issue. The garage replaced some fuse box (god know which one) and the car worked for a week and then came back on a flat bed.
I got the starter motor replaced and they still...

Hi I have peugeot rifter 2022 model with 8 speed automatic gearbox, mechanic took it in for gearbox issue, as far as i am aware he did work on valve body, then car goes into P and doesn't not come out from park. hope someone can help.

I've just replaced the front driver-side wheel bearing, hub, lower control arm, anti-sway bar bushing, and sway bar link (both sides). The droning noise that I previously experienced with the old wheel hub is no longer happening, but I've now got a new noise/issue...

Hello everyone

At the beginning of this year I've bought a Peugeot boxer 2.0 2018 with snapped timing.
I was planing to use it as a campervan base and because I never did anything like this before it seemed to be a good idea, as I was hoping I'll get away with only the rocker arms, camshafts and tapets. It was cheap and straight body.
It wasn't...

I'm hoping this might ring a bell with someone. The vehicle is seemingly in good health, no fault codes, runs ok, clean exhaust under start up and usual driving. That is until the van starts an active regen at which point great clouds of billowing white smoke are emitted from the exhaust during acceleration. Once you get up to a steady speed on...

I have read that my car can have fuel filter either by the side of the tank or in the in-tank fuel pump assembly.
I tried looking on the side of the tank but cant see any filter.

Any body know the location and know if there ant service schedule on these?

The start of the story is that i have issues with the car that suggests bad low pressure...

Hi

3 months ago the engine indicator light up and the car went in limp mode. I reset the fault codes and i could drive again. The fault repeated and now it comes every day when i start the car in the morning when its cold the fault code appears after 10.20 seconds. As soon its warm i can drive...

Hello all, this is my first time on here also a new driver so if what I say about my car doesn’t make sense bear with me. Basically my Peugeot 207 2012 would not start you turn the key no response, all fuses and battery have been checked nothing wrong with them. There is no power even to the obd port so I can’t use a scanner. The only things that...

Hi all, my trusty 406 (HDi 90) has had a coolant leak for several years now. I love the car and it's taken me and my family everywhere, so I want to get this addressed.

I've identified the source of the leak at the thermostat housing. The housing itself looks fine (from the angle I've looked at) and the leak seems to be coming from where a pipe...

Surfed all over the internet, contacted TomTom, Peugeot dealers in my city and all over. Nobody can give me information. Why there are not new maps update for NAC wave 2 (for 308SW T9 Allure from 2017)? Last update was in Dec 2024.
Anibody here do you know something about this?

Hi all -

I've got a 2017 Peugeot Boxer with the 2.0 Euro 6 engine - new to me, that I purchased as a non-runner and had a rebuilt engine fitted. It's now running, but has a bit of 'hesitation' when accelerating - most notably around 1800-2000rpm, and also gives off black smoke from the exhaust when accelerating or under load.

I've checked/done...

Hi, new to the forum and in desperate need for advice/help..

I have a Peugeot 207 with the AL4 automatic gearbox. It's triggering a 'Gearbox Fault' with a thud during motorway deceleration. The local garage stuck some diagnostics on it and it showed a solonoid fault. A gearbox oil change was done which helped, but the fault remains - even though...

I've just had the top, front suspension mounts replaced, and a month before that, the alternator. I have recently enquired on here about the radio (in-car entertainment system*) not working, and despite, I believe, following the instructions given, it still doesn't. Some of this may be relevant.

After the suspension was repaired, I took the car...

Hi all,

I have recently bought a 2014 308 1.6hdi - I have a dull thudding when coming to a stop, a vibration at idle, creaking/cracking/spring noise when going on and off the clutch, difficulty engaging reverse and 1st gear, and intermittent metallic clunk when changing gears. Clutch pedal is very high and grinding noise and sometimes doesnt...

Got myself a handbook for the fuse location in the glove box and ratings. My roof has an issue and it’s been suggested to check the fuses first.

In the hand book it states that the maxi fuses for the roof are on the top of the fuse box, don’t explain how to get to them though, I have pulled gently but nothing seems to move.

Just for me, I’m not...

The car is the 207cc, 1.6l petrol, 2008.
The driver's door lock has failed, mechanically. I've sourced an new one from a scrapy. My problem is getting the failed one off. Haynes Manual and Utube have plenty about the standard body 207 and how to get the lock off which is pretty similar to other cars I've done this on. But the CC has a longer door...

This guy took 4 months and transplanted the 1.8T (China Only EP engine) with the Aisin 6 Speed auto successfully into his 407SW.

Hello, could anyone provide me with a good link of diagbox 7.57 non vm as one version or as updates from version 7.40 as this is the last version I am able to install successfully? Thanks a lot.

Does anyone have a good guide on how to remove/inspect the air blower motor on a Peugeot 3008 P84 2020 ?
Like its location :)

The id of the document describing ho to remove/refit it is C5HG020NP0.

I have an issue with it not always blowing air, sometimes when you drive the car it works and some times it does not.
Read in the documentation that...

Right I changed the switches in my center console for the roof and windows. The windows switch didn’t work. Today I was retracting my roof and with someone about I released the button. Not looking I grabbed the window switch and they raised slightly. I lowered them and then the roof wouldn’t work either closing or opening. I had to manually close...

Hi all,

I have a 2016 308 2.0 GT Line. The car is coming up with battery charge fault and won’t start. The battery and alternator have been confirmed to be okay so everything is currently pointing towards a faulty BPGA unit. I just wondered whether anybody could confirm whether the new BPGA would need programming to the car or if it is a simple...

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 All,

Newbie to the forum here so please be gentle with me :-D

As the title says I have a 106 Independence with around 90k on the clock. The problem actually started last winter. When it was cold the car would hesitate slightly the first couple of times I accelerated away after starting but would then be ok for the rest of the journey....

Hello from South Korea!

I'm having a good deal of trouble following the Haynes manual steps for cylinder head removal (blown head gasket) - so far I have the pre-cat clamp off but can't find all the bolts to remove it so that I can get the turbo and exhaust manifold off. This seems a tricky job in-car so I'm crying out for help if anyone has tackled the job or has the...

Hi, I have a Peugeot partner horizon 2008 and it failed the MOT on emissions, I removed the top of the air filter box and when I opened the butterfly flap on the throttle body it was black and oily inside, is this normal. The pipes that go to the charcoal canister have black oil in too. I removed the spark plugs and they are in good condition and...

Hi,I have a RCZ 2.0 HDI fault codes indicating blocked EGR and or DPF.
When squirting egr cleaner in intake,noticed left hand boost pipe collapsing and twisting.
Question is if EGR or DPF blocked,would it cause that to happen,or more likely the collapsing hose under boost pressure causing the problems.
P.s any tips on reasonably priced hose...

So I have decided to renew some of the braking components on my 106 Independence.

I have worked out that the calipers are Ate so I can get some new pads, and I will be replacing the discs as well.

The only problem is with identifying the brake master cylinder. It has the number 167FA0 stamped on the end but I can't find any references to this...

Has anyone encountered the problem (fault code) P0238 on peugeot 207 1.6hdi 109ks and if you did, what did you do to get rid of that problem?

Explicitly what happens: the demanded pressure and the obtained pressure go symmetrically until the error and then it is like this - the demanded pressure is 2400mbar, and the obtained pressure drops to...

Hi. So i have this 107 that was idling really roughly and sometimes stalls when not moving. So i decided to inspect/clean the throttle body, the one i have doesnt have a throttle cable and idle control valve connected to it.
When i put everything back, the car wont start...

The fuel pump is priming when i...

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...

Hey everyone,

I have a Peugeot 407 with the standard RD4 radio and I'm looking to add Bluetooth. My main goal is just to get Bluetooth working, but I also want to keep things looking OEM, so I'm not really keen on sticking a generic AliExpress Android screen in the dash.

I've been looking into swapping the RD4 for an RT5 or RNEG unit since it...

Hello everyone

i bought an boxer with an timing belt / chain snapped .
After i got it home and took it apart , it didn't took long to notice it was the chain that failed .
i did an cylinder leak down test , it was leaking badly . Thought to take the head cylinder off , but top of the bolts kept snapping . Tried welding , tried drilling , not much...

Is this the only solenoid related to turbo boost pressure on a 2012 2.0 hdmi engine? Its on the top left of the cylinder head as you look at the car fromthe front. Ive only just got the car and have yet to buy an appropriate obd reader, however the seller told me that the occasional sudden loss of power which didnt happen on the testdrive, is due...

Hi,

I'm trying to swap out the battery in my 3008, but the set-up of the engine is completely different to anything else I can find online. My air filter is directly in front of the battery, which has meant I've had to remove the filter lid and filter to access the bolts on the bracket below. On any of the videos I've watched, the two bolts at...

Going to look at one of the above tomorrow. Anything good or bad with this engine? Is it a belt with a chain for the camshafts? I've had it suggested the 110bhp engines were fitted with a continental ecu which they considered a nightmare . Any truth in this or just a grumpy person who had a problem with one?
Thanks

Hi all, I've just replaced all the vac valves on the rear of my engine. For a while there was a leaking injector which was spewing out spent diesel/fumes/oil? and the top of the engine is black/brown with gunk which had made it's way into the vac valves that control Air Doser, Turbo and EGR circuit, as there is a vac line breather right next to...

Hello,
I recently bought a Peugeot 508sw 1.6bluehdi automatic from 2016. When purchasing, only the Service light and a tire pressure monitor light were on. When driving home, everything went well, until after a little more than 100 km of driving: the engine failure light came on. The car was still able to continue driving.
After reading the errors...

Hi everyone. Hoping someone could give me some advice on what to check on my Peugeot partner 1.6hdi 2008. The van is very erratic over 3000rpm, it will go up to 3200 and drop straight back to 3000 very quickly. The exhaust rattles pretty bad at the back while it's doing this but think it's probably because the surging? I did start to notice a loss...

Hello everyone!

Pleasure to be here.

I'm having this enormous problem with a 207 I bought recently. It's a 1.4 VTi, EP3 (says in the VIN).

What I do know is that some time ago last year, the ECU was swapped (no idea why) but the car ran fine for another good year after this procedure.

It started to randomly stall, up until it just refused to...

Morning all,

I've got a 2014 T9 308SW 1.6HDi which recently started declaring 'Engine Fault - Repair Needed' or something to that effect every time I braked. When I lift my foot, the fault goes away and the 'Eco Active' notification displays for a moment. There appears to be no problems with actual braking - all callipers appear to be free, no...
