Wondering if anyone had any ideas on this issue. Will give some background info. Tyre popped after hitting a curb a while ago. Had steering tie arm and tie rod end replaced as it was bent. After this was replaced a knocking/grumbling noise started coming from the front wheels. Had tracking done and also wheel balancing, noise still present. Went...

Hi,

I've recently purchased a 3008 hybrid - very happy with it except I soon realised that there was no FM/AM signal. Zero, not even the odd station with poor quality.
Everything else on the radio works, so can play CDs, sat nav works etc..

I've had a look at fuse F37 for the hi-fi amplifier and weirdly it had a 3a fuse in place and looked...

Hi Guys, I'm a neewby here. I have a 2006 407 (from new). The CD player was chewing CDs and not spitting them out. I've got a replacement item from evil bay, and although it works perfectly, it emits a continuous beep. I take it that this is a security measure. Is there anything I can do to clear it or is it a dockyard job? TIA.

Hi guys, having a problem with my Peugeot 807 2.0 petrol . Engine oil pressure low warning pops up all the time, but engine works normally, temperature is ok. I drove more than 500km already. So I suspect of oil pressure sensor is broken or blocked . Does anyone know it's location?

Thanx

The wife had now decided she wants to get rid if her stock alloys, mainly because they are well heavily kerbed (not by her) so she wants rid.
No problem...... WELL maybe after some searching.
Very few and far between are 4 hole aftermarkets alloys for the 308, the ones I find she does not like and are rather expensive £850 + for a set of well not...

Hi All,

I hope everyone is well.

I'm looking to purchase the following vehicle and sought some advice please: Peugeot 5008 1.6 HDI ACTIVE 5d 64 Plate. I'd like to find out what the boot space is with the seats up please? Different websites mention different figures.

Can anyone provide information about the reliability of the engine in this...

Purchased a 1.6hdi some time ago and have been trying to pinpoint the cause of a p0402 which will not allow the regeneration of the dpf. Changed some parts on it like the turbo oil feel pipe, had the turbo checked and it seems to be spinning freely. Changed the vacuum solenoid thats at the back of the bulk head, and the MAF sensor with a brand new...

I have searched previous posts but may have missed the answer i`m looking for. With regards to the roof rattling when closed the problem is defo the flat bar in the centre of the back window section which goes into the recess of the solid roof section. If you push up on it inside whilst driving along it stops. Does anybody know if there should be...

I have a 2008 from 2017 that has developed an AdBlue fault. I have checked the codes with Diagbox and it is P20E8 - Reducatnt pressure low. Everything I've read points to needing a new tank. I've monitored the live data in Diagbox with everything up to temperature and the pressure never moves from 4 bar (I know this is the mimimum value it can...

My washer bottle bracket broke and have been trying to find a part number for the same. Couple of local garages can't find it on a diagram or even a part number. I have a description of one that was on e-bay, but doesn't give a part number. Anyone help ?

If you have the same problem with me like this,

So to my shame I've been sold a complete lemon by a private seller.
I went to buy a 207cc 1.6Hdi and it all looked good.
Scanned clear of current codes, except a P1351. Test drove perfectly for 20-30 minutes.
On the way home, after another 20 minutes of driving the screen flashes 'Depollution system faulty' and the MIL light comes on.

Hi .. a bit of background first

I've had my 2012 207 1.6 HDI 92 from 2013 when it had done 12k .. its now on 85k and regularly serviced by myself as a mechanical fitter.

For some time it has had a nasty smoking habit .. mostly black with a little blue on start up. It gradually got worse and ended up with DPF at risk of clogging message coming...

Good Morning,

Trying to track down a gearbox for the above - my issue is that when it was swapped out in 2015, a 1.6 gearbox was mated to the DV4TD engine but I dont know what gearbox code it is.

Does anyone know what gearbox code(s) for a 1.6 HDI fit a 1.4 HDI engine, its starting to drive me bananas as no one is willing to help very much as...

I have a 1996 406 with the 2.1 engine, it had the lucas epic pump but had a few issues with idle, random unintended acceleration, random spluttering and fuel leaks. So i have removed that setup and fitted a bosch from a 405 1.9 TD that i removed back in 2017.

The 406 is starting now on the bosch pump but is quite smokey and doesnt seem to want to...

Thanks for the acceptance.

Had a problem with the roof last year with it not going up properly. At first it raised about quarter of the way and just stopped, put it back down and tried again, this time it raised a bit further. To cut a longs story I had a guy test it with his diagnostic whilst I operated the roof. It folded down ok and whilst...

508sw front coil spring broken, all i know is colour code which is 2 white and 1 blue, would like to know part number for late 2017 facelift model, any help would be great because all i got are the dealerships saying they can quote me for some but wont give out the part number, thanks to all that may be able to help me out.

Hi my Peugeot 308cc 1.6 vti 5fs engine has gave up so planning to replace engine . The price of a 5fs is to much for me but I've come across a 5fw with low miles . Would it be possible to fit the 5fw in my 308. Thanks

Hello friends.

Around 20 000 km before, I had a problem on my AL4. The gearbox was sometime dis-engage on the fly and went to downgrade mode. Hence, I surfed the info from the internet. Finally, I did replacement of 2 pressure regulator valves on the hydraulice valve body. But I did not update any firmware as recommend on the sites because...

Hello All,

I’m looking for a bit of advice after drawing a blank trawling the net. My wife’s 2010 207 vti started to be difficult to unlock at times with the fob, you often had to be fairly close to the car. So, I changed the battery and now it doesn’t work at all! I followed the resync procedure in the handbook and nothing. I have also tried a...

Hi,

I have a 2008 Peugeot Boxer, Puma 2.2hdi engine, Denso injection.
The engine was replaced (complete, including injectors) however the new injectors were not recoded into the van's ECU programming.

The original codes that are programmed are 16 characters long, however current injectors only have an 8 character code that the diagnostic program...

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has a fuse/relay diagram for a Peugeot 508 2015 2.2. I’ve looked and looked on the net but can’t seem to find anything. Just wanted to know what fuse and relay did what that’s all.

Thank you

When i drive over 130kmh for while and then press the break to slow down the vehicle the transmission not working.
If i drived on a speed less than 130kmh there is no problem

Hello everyone - Peugeot 308 Hdi 2010

I recently replaced my abs pump and now my brake pedals have zero resistance and are floppy. Could anyone point me in the right direction, what is the cause?

I have bled the brakes twice and bled the ABS pump using a scanner. I am also getting a new fault code - C 1389 brake fluid level too low (the brake...

The power steering pump stopped working while i was driving and when i turned of the engine and then turned it on again the problem solved. But the problem keeps recurring. I need to know why?

I did these actions:
I checked the fuse box
reconnected the earth wire.
I used a tie rap to fix the plug of the pump.

I still have the same problem

Hi guys,

I'm desperate with my Boxer 2.2 hdi, she does not start with a fault in communication with the Injection ECU. The immobilizer stays On, she cranks but no start.

I checked the C Can lines L & H, and the resistance between both is 120ohm.

Can L & H are showing no resistance to battery 12v, and if I measure the Can line to battery...

Hi guys,

Unfortunately one of my locking wheel nuts snapped a year ago so i got a new set from Peugeot last year. Annoyingly, possibly the second time i used the key on one of the wheels, another locking nut broke on me. Does anyone recommend a good set to buy that will fit my Peugeot 508 19 wheel please? maybe tempted to buy just 4 normal bolts...

So my 2011 1.6 hdi Peugeot 3008 had a diesel smell coming into car when driving. On inspection seen a large build up of carbon around the injectors so figured there could be one leaking, also noticed a leak from the egr where it bolts onto to back of the cylinder head. So took off the egr valve and found a missing gasket, replaced that and cleaned...

Hi to all.

When i turn on side lights de horn turn on too.

Hi guys, thanks for letting use this forum. I just wanted a little advice if I may. Cut a long story short I had some discs and pads fitted to my Peugeot 508gt 2.2 last year that was very poor performance, handbrake struggling to hold, brake fade was terrible so i replaced them the other day. I took the electronic handbrake off, jacked the car up,...

Hello everyone,i'm the owner of a 508 RXH Hybrid4 and the nightmares never ends whit this car.

The old Hdi has been running well until yesterday.

I took it for a spin up the coast 200kms to burn off the cobwebs on the freeway and ran fine. Stopped over night and next day all well (eg no oil stains on the driveway)

Went for a short drive (10 kms) at low speed and stopped at some shops. Came out an saw a wet patch under the car (auto...

Any ideas anyone?
I put Diagbox on my car, 2006 Peugeot 307SW, 2.0HDi 138, as I needed to programme a new key. In doing a faults test it tells me there is no communication with the additive ECU. The car isn't actually showing any faults at present.
The additive is the bag type and I have changed the bag.
Any clues as to how to start diagnosing...

Hi guys,

I have, what is sounding uncomfortably familiar on this forum, EPB issues. I'm not going to go into detail on the fault just yet as there are a lot of other great posts here that I want to work through first, but can somebody tell me please where the parking brake module is located please, like the one pictured here:

Sorry I know...

Where can I find the RPO number on my 207cc?
ServiceBox says it should be on a sticker on the left door but there's no sticker.
There is a sticker in the left door jamb. (see attached)

At the weekend I disconnected my battery to route a power cable for a small amplifier. I followed the reset procedure noted on the site but had a horrendous experience when i connected it all back up. Hand brake failure alarm, engine fault warning, service flashing, window shut itself and wouldn't open locking was half working, when I tried to...

New guy here desperately looking for a solution to a repeating issue.

Car got into a limp mode. When checking codes via Diagbox noticed two errors in the Hybrid control ECU 1 occurring simultaneously. I've noticed that the ancillary belt tensioner was very wobbly so it got changed together with the belt. Hope was...

Hello, for about 2 years, yes, you read correctly, 2 years... What bothers me is the malfunctioning ESP or Semi-functional. It works until I pass a corner at a minimum speed of 60 km/h until then everything behaves fine and ESP works. Then when I turn off the car and start it again the error is gone and it repeats itself every time I drive. Lexia...

Hi,

I have installed OEM tow bar and electric kit on 208 II from 2021. After installation and connection to the trailer the lights of course didn't work.
I hooked up Lexia to the car, bought a token, used oficial Diagbox, and activated the trailer unit. Yuhuuu, trailer works! (wasn't really able to test the fog light as it was missing on the...

Good afternoon,
I have a 1998 106 1.1 Zest 3 which, I believe, has the TU1M(HDZ) engine with the Bosch fuel injection. A couple of months ago two issues manifested:

1) The engine misfired when accelerating
2) The idle speed would drop to 500rpm or the engine would stall completely.

Issue #1 was fixed with new spark plugs and HT leads.

Issue #2...

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...

hi all,

not sure if this is the right place but i have just purchased a 2015 3008 and was wondering if there is a way to avoide motorways on the system as i cannot seem to find it? i like having the display in car and would rather not just use my phone for navigation if possible. thanks in advance

Hi All,

I have a Peugeot 308, 2015 model (1.2 Litre Petrol, Manual).
It suddenly stopped working (cranks but won't start).
I called the breakdown support and the AA did some diagnostics and gave the following error codes:

Patrol found the following fault code/s:System : Engine control 1 - 9E4 / Engine management Valeo VD46 Status :P1B40 - Engine...

Hi,
I have the cylinder head of on my 208 (EB2 engine). It started with a new timing belt and then I realised it wasn´t that much more job to change the valve steam seals because the car use about 1 litre oil per 1000 km (thought this maybe would help a bit?).

Then I had to take the top of because I accidently damaged a valve when taking one seal...

Hi all,

Apologies for the trivial question but I'd like to replace the spark plugs on a 1997 2.0 Turbo (XU10J2TE) and the layout is slightly different to what I've found online for (presumably later) petrol engines. Instead of a plastic engine cover and a single ignition coil pack for all four plugs, I seem to have individual ignition coils (see...

Hey all,
I've searched and searched and I just can't find the info I need, I'm happy to pay for it if someone has it.
I've got a 2021 plate boxer, I've removed the double passenger and fitted a single and therefore the pretensioner wiring doesn't fit, throwing an airbag fault code.
I'm told I can fit a resistor into the wiring to fool the circuit...

Hello,

I have a 2015 Peugeot Expert 2.0 hdi that has started to idle at about 1250 rpm, but if I press the brake pedal, the revs drop back to normal. Also if I switch the engine off for a minute or 2 it seems to reset itself. Sometimes I can drive for about half an hour before it starts doing it again or sometimes it will only go for 10 minutes...
