Juat had an MOT and an advisory of a slight oil leak from the back of the engine. What is at the back of the engine which could be leaking oil at a very slow rate? Any advice please.

I have the same problem. The temerature gauge has always gone up to 90 and stayed there, now it nearly gets to 90 and speed aand as soon as I slow down the needle drops to 80 then 70. No loss of coolant and the top radiator pipe gets warm and the botton stays cold. When I turn the engine off...

I am no further forward on the Cruise Control problem. Several garages including Peugeot and Mini specialists have had no success in finding out what causes the engine to go into limp mode after 10 minutes after being switched on, No error codes come up on OBD dfisplay or on my fairly basic...

I used Gorilla glue and so far it has worked. The glue sets very hard. It's about £5.99 for a bottle of the stuff

Lond story short. A Independant Peugeot specialist has removed the code P1664 from the ECU, however if I switch the cruise control on again the code will return. The solution is to replace the ECU at a cost £1250 and with no guarantee that the code would not return. As I don't use cruise...

I suspect software corruption as I have never redlined the revs. Hopefully sorted out soon

The cruise control saga is still rumbling on and yesterday a garage finally managed to come up with and code which was hidden away from the normal run of the mill diagnostics. The code of P1664 - Engine ECU: Internal fault (Engine Torque) I was advised that a Main Dealer would have to...

I had mt wheels rebrbished last week and 3 new TPM's were fitted and for some reason not the TPM's were replaced. Do I have to to do something to reset the TPM's so that low tyre pressures will show on the OBD, and if so, how is the reset done. Mk1 156 GT Thanks for any advice

Exactley the same thing happened to me. The fan wouldn't work, then it would would work for a while then stop again. In the end I replaced the resistor and since then the fan has worked as it should. Access to the resistor by dropping the glove compartment out. As you are aware it's really...

Over 70% of my LED's were out and with an MOT coming up I bit the bullet and bought from a MD. £134 delivered the next day. Found some in Holland and by the time postage + VAT was added on it wasn't far off the MD price.

After a year of owning a 2010 RCZ 1.6 THP GT and the trials and tribulations not to mention the expense of ownership, the car passed the MOT with no advisories seems to make it all worthwhile.😀

Thanks Pedro, having a new cable fitted when the car goes in for MOT and service next Monday, hopefully this will cure the problem, if not, I will have to rethink.

My cruise control will work for about 30 - 40 minutes at motorway cruising speed then the engine goes into limp mode. I stop, turn cruise control off, stop and restart the engine and the engine is out of limp mode. No codes come up, it has been suggested that there is a cable going from the...
