    Heaters query

    Do you actual understand the workings of the car and heating system, you have a sensor inside the car that sets your temperature, but before the temperature can be controlled you need something to control - heat or a compressor (AC) , so until the engine is warm and the heater matrix is to a...

    Sporta air Filter like K&N

    The sports up-grade does give you the sound box, it's just the english translation of the french spec did not come over very well and it's not always show on the litreture - depending on the age. ;)

    Sporta air Filter like K&N

    Yes but you can only hear it inside the car as the device is fiited behind the glovebox, :eusa-think: :eusa-think: A true induction system will give you a sound inside and outside the car.

    Cracked Wheel

    When you look at the alloys, they are very close to the road due to the tyre profile so any bang is going to damage the rim for sure, also we have a wide rim which due to the dish being on the outside means the strength is only in the edge of the rim hence your flat spot. You just have to watch...

    "ENGINE FAULT REPAIR NEEDED"

    Hi Harwood. Glad it's sorted, just keep an eye of the EML if it comes back on make sure you get the code from the garage. Not sure what mode your car went into then if it's not limp, needs a good run to clear the crap out, a bit of second stage will help 8-) ;) Rob.

    Fuel Tuner

    The main advantage for both fuels is a more efficent detonation, which results in smoother running and a higher return on mpg, it's worth a try but you will need to test over a full tank. I use it in my Roadster as the map is based on that fuel octane (99 ron) so I can't go any lower or else it...

    "ENGINE FAULT REPAIR NEEDED"

    Hey it's not your fault one bit, the garage should know better, well at least Peugeot can see what's going on as it's documented on here, just avoid using the car if possible, our cars have individual coil packs for each sparkplug so the car will run if one goes down so it gives you a false...

    "ENGINE FAULT REPAIR NEEDED"

    You should not be driving a car which is in limp mode, the idea of limp mode is just that get you home and then get it fixed, if it's vibrating and overheating then you are doing more damage - I have to say I would not have taken the car away, I would insist on a replacement while they sort it...

    Car alarm

    Not if it's not got the electronic immobilizer settings which a cloned key would not have.

    Car alarm

    I would have thought if you had someone break in with a key clone you want it to go off, starting the car with the correct key switches off the immobilizer and then I should imagine the alarm - makes sense really. Rob.

    Car alarm

    I never got that far, I just shut the door rearmed and then unlocked with the fob.

    Fuel Tuner

    Indeed not I'm afraid - Quote: In the United Kingdom and Denmark (where Super Unleaded must be a minimum of 97 RON), V-Power has a rating of 99 RON (whereas V-Powers' predecessor Shell Optimax was rated at 98 RON). There is one other 99 RON fuel available in the UK, namely Tesco MOMENTUM99...

    Knocking noise at low revs

    Hi Glenn. Couldn't get the plastic off, looks like you need a Torx driver to remove the two bolts then you need to remove the rubber seal along the inside of the bonnet, I think then it will push back to allow access to the strut top. You will need a allen key in the top of the strut to hold it...

    Car alarm

    I've just tried mine, it goes off as soon as the door is opened, so it looks like you need your fob to be working to switch the alarm off.

    Knocking noise at low revs

    Hi Glen. You can see the nut through the plastic, so the only way you can get to it is by removing the plastic but I've not gone that far yet, I'll have a look tonight to see how easy it is to get it off. I had a couple of loose wheel bolts (not falling out but not at the right setting) when...

    A word of warning

    Nahh - it's to save some money on a switch inside the car, but then again you can't get much bigger than the gear stick as a switch. :wtf: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    A word of warning

    The reverse sensors only operate when the reverse gear is selected, the front are on all the time, that's why you have a switch inside the car to switch the front off.
