Hi all,
All advise appreciated on this issue. I have a 2012 2.0 hdi 163bhp that when fully warmed up will sit with a high idle of around 1300RPM. This reduces to normal idle (800rpm) when the brake pedal is pressed but goes back to 1300rpm when released. It will also drive at this rpm when the accelerator pedal is not pressed i.e. 50mph in 6th...

Hi All,
I recently purchased a new Peugeot Expert 1.5 diesel van. It's my first van that requires adblue. At about 6,000 klm I got a dashboard notice that adblue was required so I topped it up. After a short drive the adblue dash light went out so all ok. As I approached 10,000 klm I was presented with a count down informing me how many kilometers...

Hi Guys,
I am new here and have this PEUGEOT BOXER 335 L3 H2 2.2 BLUE HDI 140 VAN.
I installed a cruise control lever as the VAN did not have it before.
I am looking for any app/tool for enabling/programming the new lever to the vehicle.
Any idea?
Thanks a million

Hello all,
Oddly I didn't find much on the Puretech engine here. Probably didn't search properly. ;)
I own a 2018 5008 with the 130hp 1.2 and as someone who purchased her only a year ago, am fully aware of the history of issues with this engine. As such, I change the oil every 10k km and check the belt. This time when checking the width of the...

Hi Everyone

First post.

I've got a 2.0 bluehdi 180 Traveller. I'm running lowering springs but the dampers are not firm enough.

I've noticed that the Bilstein 47-329485 is listed for the
Expert 2.0 Bluehdi 180
Traveller 1.5 Bluehdi 100

But not the 180 Traveller. I find this strange. The expert must be in the same ballpark for weight. The...

Hello,
I'm in the middle of doing the timing belt on my 2018 5008 and while taking the crank sprocket off, the oil pump sprocket tried to follow it and when I pushed it back on the crankshaft I noticed that the chain is quite loose. I almost thought it came of the pump sprocket, but that's fine.

I can't find specs anywhere. The chain looks fine....

The radio and the pop up multimedia screen have stopped working in my wife’s 5008. Also the parking sensors have stopped working too. The radio is also now making a noise like it is trying to eject a CD, but there is no CD actually in the CD slot. There is no SD card slot on the radio. I have checked the fuse F8, which was fine...

I'm currently battling yet another problem with my 2006 Pug 307cc, 2litre 16v (143hp). Once again it won't start and I have explained all in the Diagnostics section. I would like to top up the battery but vaguely remember reading something about having to reset something (or everything) if the battery is disconnected. This would probably compound...

Car is a 2008 Peugeot 207cc 1.6 l petrol. It starts easily enough but can idle rough. It can stall when coming down from high revs, or even down from a steady rev. The Engine Management error message comes on at changes in engine speed, with the warning orange triangle. The triangle can dissappear if steady revs are held, like on a motorway.
No...

Hello dear all,
I found the EP3 guide, is it also the same guide for EP6?
Do I need to bleed air outside with cap open or not? not sure, also some friend of mine not sure, he's not a mechanic but it's his hobby

I also found the guide of 207, which states opened cap, in the EP3 guide, closed cap

Thanks,

Hello, I have a fuel problem with my vehicle and I haven't solved it yet. The car is burning too much fuel. The Maf sensor, upper Lambda sensor, VVTI valve, and PCV valve (upper cover) have been recently replaced. The High Pressure pump has been recently overhauled. Injector corrections have been flawless. I used Rislone additive for catalytic...

Hello all

I have been searching high and low for help to wire in an RCC and so far found very little help. So I did my own research and have come up with this:

Before restyling, there were also 2.2 engines with the code DW12 (RUE, RUD, RUC)

Hi. I had timing belt, drive belt and water pump exchanged on my 206 SW Petrol Year 2005 one week ago in a garage.
Before the exchange the watertemp gauge went up to about half of the scale, as it should do.
The engine works fine but one problem has occured after the job.
The watertemp gauge is not showing correct temperature. In fact it doesn't...

Hi, first post here. Name is Logan, from Sweden. Bought this charming Peugeot 106 XR HDZ year model 1992. The paint is quite faded and I thought that I could at least try and touch it up some. I can't really find the color code for it, I looked at the driver's side shock absorber and I can see faint faded letters that I cannot make out. Neither in...

I have a 508 SW 1.6 e-HDi 2013 6-Speed Robotised Manual Gearbox. Its about to reach 270000kms and while it still works alright It has been showing its wear i believe. Such as when it downshifts sometimes it has a hard time shifting to a higher gear. Not necessarily slipping big time because the spedometer still goes up but not as much as it should...

Sup everyone.

Im very interested in buying a 406 Coupe 3.0 V6 and the one thats out there is pretty much in mint condition. Only done 160k kms. Seller states that hes changed the trans oil twice which is not bad in my eyes. My only concern is how good the price is alongside sellers eagerness to wanting to sell it to me rather than the guy coming...

My wife’s 2011 year model 3008 is in a state of not starting. (Cause is as yet unknown.)

But the immediate problem is that both front windows are open and the car is in Economy Mode.

I know that the battery is in good condition. Well, I replaced it earlier this year, so I’m presuming that it’s fine.

Thanks for any help you can offer me.

Hello!

I believe that my cars are conspiring against me. I had a stinking cold and haven't been able to have another look at the issues with the RCZ, now the 308 seems to have joined in.

It has decided that as we are in the coldest part of the year that it would be fun if no heat came out of the blower in the cabin. As I also found a relatively...

I've got a few faults on scanning that are persistent and seem to point towards a failing BSM so was considering a cheap replacement off ebay as a lazy way of avoiding checking through the spaghetti of wires. Obvs risking buying a faulty unit if used...

Hi!

We have a Peugeot Expert 2007 with a DW10UTED4 / RHK engine and a Siemens VDO ECU SID803A. VIN: VF3**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff].

Purchased a Peugeot 206 1.4 a little while ago and I am currently trying to fix it up back to near factory quality. I have found that the previous owners swapped the engine to the 1.6 engine with ought changing the throttle body, coil pack and a few other components. I have got my hands on a new and correct throttle body and coil pack, however the...

Hi,
I decided to renew the X2 full length, rear wheel Brake Pipes on my 1.4 SE after discovering that my Hand held flaring tool could not FLARE the original High Carbon Steel, PSA pipes.
My idea was to take the easy route and simply use a pipe JOINER piece between the original STEEL and the new COPPER repair section.

Hello all,

Starting issue with our Bipper van hoping someone could advise.

We are giving some TLC to a 2009 207 1.4 that has been off the road for a while. It has 80k on the clock, it had an emissions light on and idled like it wanted to stall.

Live data revealed a dead post cat sensor. We changed that, told the ECU it had a new sensor and took it for a good drive. It now runs sweet as a nut when warm. However, when it...

I drive a Peugeot 308 1.6 HDI with a DV6C engine. I'm tired of cleaning my car's particulate filter. I live in a city with heavy traffic, and driving at high speeds isn't feasible. When I'm on the intercity, even if I'm constantly cruising at high speed, it doesn't seem to work. I remove the particulate filter and wash it with pressure wash and...

I bought Rislone 44720 and poured it into the tank when the fuel tank was half full. Does this additive clean the catalytic converter? Or is there another way to clean it?

I'd like to preface this by saying, this is my first car, having passed my test just one month ago. I'm not experienced with car mechanics, but after researching thoroughly I deemed an injector replacement well within my remit, though not a mechanic, I am very handy with tools and filddy bits.

On my way from Dublin, exiting a toll booth, my car...
