    electric engine fan coming on and an alert on dash

    The CD version is the same as the VM I think. The diagrams are not very helpful, but maybe print them out so you can better follow the lines/wires.

    electric engine fan coming on and an alert on dash

    The full wiring diagrams are available in the official Peugeot manuals. There are VM’s (virtual machines) to be found on the web, which run windows 95 with a hacked version of it. All Peugeot cars up to 2013 are in it. Do you have experience with this sort of thing? There are (also illegal) CD’s...

    RCZ battery charging while still in vehicle

    It’s possible to charge this way , to my knowledge. The car itself charges the battery at >14V or so, so it’s no problem to do that yourself.

    Installation of cabin filter with wings

    The round hole is part of the engine noise circuit, to hear some more engine noise in the cabin. There is a pipe which connects to it, did you remove it or was it never there? I replaced the filter cover with one without the hole and removed the pipe. It seems to me this is a sort of air leak...

    Hello from Australia - considering this RCZ

    Bummer. As it failed so catastrophically, must be something apparent. No loose hoses?

    RCZ wont start.... sometimes

    Mine wouldn’t start sometimes. In the end it was a not well tightened negative battery lead.

    RCZ won’t start after major engine work – timing chain, oil pump, electrical faults & water ingress – need advice

    I would suspect the module on top of the battery. And don’t rule out a loose ground connection to the battery. I had this, it would not start but otherwise behave normal. And as said, alternators other than PSA will not work well.

    Jacking Points

    The band saw I used was also pretty wide (made for woodworking). The profile can be made with it. Some parts need the chisel, like the bottom of the slot for the jacking point. But the rest can be made with the band saw.

    Jacking Points

    I used a drill and chisel. The rubber is very easy to cut. The circular hole on the back was the hardest. I drilled out the shape and then used a chisel.

    Jacking Points

    I’ve got one with a 85mm low point indeed. When you remove the puck, it just about fits. So that’s why I cut the circular profile in the block, so the cup of the jack fits in (I removed the rubber puck and loose metal cup fro That also allows me to precisely position the load point. As you can...

    Jacking Points

    looking at it again, I see I saw the block in half. So my lifting block is 60mm wide, 80mm high at the highest point and 160mm long.
