Hi from Milton Keynes

Tell us a little about yourself, lie if you have to but keep it to just an introduction, not a car discussion.

Hi from Milton Keynes

Unread post by PaulMillard »

Hi Everyone,

Thought I would join on here to assist with any Peugeot / Citroen problems people have. I'm in Milton Keynes and I have Diagbox / Peugeot Planet (and soon Lexia) all installed with the official kit. (Not the Chinese copies).

I am already a member on Peugeot Forums and have been for a couple of years (I hope no one here minds me saying?). I am 'on the map' on that forum and have been helping people with Diagbox / Planet for a while now. I will shortly see if I can get listed on your Map / Thread.

I know how engines work, that's about it. Electricals / Computers are more my thing. Very good with computers, good with electricals.

I now have a 2014 308 1.6TDi, before that I had a 207 1.4VTi for 6 years! Had it from new, loved both the cars, and also modified both the cars :D

I have created guides on the afore mentioned forum, for adding DRL's, Reversing Sensors, Boot LED's etc... Also recently created a full guide on updating the Maps and Speed Cameras on the SMEG+ unit in the 308's and new 208's. (Once I am familiar with what I am and aren't allowed to post, I may post a link here?)

Anyway, feel free to contact me if you are in the area, and need codes read etc...

Cheers, Paul

Hi Paul

I am looking at buying a Peugeot 308 Sport 1.6 petrol 2010. At startup two errors show

1 Anti-Pollution system faulty
2 ESP/ASR system faulty

Are these potentially big problems? How serious are they / can they be?

The dealer says he can fix them easily: should I believe him?

thanks in advance.

Hi Martin, welcome to the forum from a local... I'm in Newport Pagnell...

can't help with the question so I'd recommend you post the query in the Peugeot area of the forum...

Is it a local dealer?
