Hi From Ireland

Post by irishal »

Hi to all from the emerald Isle, sounds great but in reality it's only named thus because it is so damp here everything goes green :mrgreen: Recently become an owner of a Peugeot 3008 1.6 HDI 2011. Have been impressed with overall build quality but has developed a couple of niggles, more on those later.....

Welcome to the Forum.
See you have 1.6 Hdi, I believe these have oil way problems caused by "Sludgey" oil, where the oil and filter changes are not frequent enough, I used to change mine at least annually no matter what mileage.
