Hi,
I appear to be missing 2 bolts holding my door latch in place hence making the door protrude about 1 inch outwards.
Anyone know if these are special bolts and know a part number?
I'm waiting for a mobile mechanic to fix my stuttering issue but mine is because of a compression leak between cylinders 2 and 3 which is caused by compression leaking through the bolt that hold on the cover between cylinders 3 and 4.
Thanks. I'll give them a call.
I'm not sure when or if to get it done though because it is over the 10 year replacement by about 5 months (that I know of as it could have been changed before) but the chain sounds fine.
I'm going to try.
They open at 8:30am and close at 5:30pm and don't open weekends so it's pretty hard to get there when I work 9-5 so I'll take some time out over lunch, go there and see what happens.
Here another update:
I had a mobile mechanic look at the car today to quote on a few things and asked about the loss of compression in Cylinders 2 and 3.
It took him a minute to figure out that the bundle of tape stuck down the bolt hole between 2 of the cylinders was the cause as the bolt...
Hi,
Can anyone recommend a good garage that will do timing chain replacements in the Norfolk/Suffolk area?
There is a local Peugeot dealer very close to me but I know this will be very expensive.
If there aren't any in the area then just suggest anywhere and I'll travel and stay in a hotel.
Since changing the spark plugs I've done about 500-600 miles with no juddering issues. However I believe there is still low compression in Cylinders 2 and 3 as I can feel that there should be a little more power available.
I'm not planning on going anywhere in January but in February I'm going...
I changed all 4 spark plugs with new NGK's and the problem has gone away.
Can someone explain how it is no longer juddering on hard acceleration just my changing the spark plugs when I presume the Cylinder PSI levels are still low if I did another compression test?
These are the cylinder readings:
Cylinder 1: 135psi
Cylinder 2: 70psi
Cylinder 3: 90psi
Cylinder 4: 145psi
They also did a cylinder leakage test:
Cylinder 1: 47%
Cylinder 2: 85%
Cylinder 3: 75%
Cylinder 4: 46%
From the above tests they said there is an internal cylinder leakage.
Hi All,
There's been an update.
So I took my car into a garage and they ran a compression test. They said Cylinders 2 and 3 were at 80% compression. The others were fine.
They quoted £600 to strip down the engine to find the cause. Is this worth it or is there a better option on a gamble to...
I called local Peugeot dealer yesterday who quoted £750 inc VAT as I had a suspicion it could be that.
While Googling prices I found someone who repairs them on Ebay as they state it is a repairable unit and not worth spending the money for a new one. I wonder if this is true.
I moved the coil packs and cleared the errors. Took it for a drive and the EM light stayed off. I can feel there's still an issue as it has hesitation when the turbo engages so this will be fun trying to figure out the cause.
From live data off of the diagnostic unit does anyone know or is...
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give the coil pack move a go.
On these engines is cylinder 1 closest to the timing chain so it goes 4,3,2,1 when looking down at it?
Found out what the thing cabled tied is. The High Pressure Fuel Pump. It may be related to what I'm now experiencing.

Hi,
I recently purchased an RCZ Asphalt.
I can only assume that who did the service at the dealer before I bought the car didn't tighten up the Turbo Pipe and screw in sump plug tight enough because it empties oil all over the drive. I had a new sump, oil and tighten of the turbo pipe. There's...
Thanks for the reply.
By chance I found an old 256MB USB stick, formatted it as FAT and that worked straight away.
The SD Card is 16GB and brand of Nokia
The USB is 4GB formatted as FAT32.
I'm now formatting as FAT and see if that works.
It could be possible that the firmware is so old it will...
