For me, anyone with a petrol engine, full equipment, that is, with leather seats, navigator, 19" rims and most important: full original.

It only shows if you give little throttle above 2000 rpm

Here a picture of my coolant, does it need to be changed periodically? the maintenance manual does not say anything

Well, put a tube that throws it to the ground, as cars had 60 years ago, but that was prohibited. Also when stopping the car, the tube will drop some oil on the ground. If they discover the modfication in the mandatory technical review, you will not pass it All combustion engines conduct the...

I think that this is not going to work, what is going to be contaminated is the engine cavity. All engines discharge the gases from the crankcase to the intake, also in turbocharged engines it can also happen that some oil is lost in the turbo and reaches the intake manifold.

Where will the oily gases go? to a filter? That filter will get dirty very quickly and it will stain everything nearby. The gases are led to the intake to avoid contamination if they go directly to the atmosphere.

How much distance do you travel in those 2-3 weeks? Anything approaching or exceeding 1 liter per 1000 km is highly excessive and may fail the emissions test. If the spark plugs are removed it would be good to do a compression test of each cylinder.

If the smoke comes out when accelerating after idling, the problem is with the valve seals or the piston rings. This occurs because the vacuum in the intake manifold and cylinder is highest at idle and this can suck oil which is then expelled on acceleration. I don't think the problem is on...

I also had the updated tensioner and I replaced it with a new one. The rattling when it was cold disappeared. Over time it loses strength.

For less than €10 you can buy an ODBII ELM327 connector and with a free app on your mobile phone you can see that pressure too. Also view and clear default codes

If the car has good power, the turbo does not leak oil or make noise, it will surely be in good condition. The wastegate too. Ask your friend if his device can read the pressure in the intake manifold. Drive a bit with him and if the pressure rises to 0.6 bar when accelerating then nothing...

Do you notice a lack of power? It may be that the turbo wastegate remains open due to some mechanical failure.

What is turbo warning for you? It is the message that the engine needs to be repaired? Do you know any fault code?

Is the cable cut or has a bite in the insulation? It doesn't show up well in the photo. If it only has a bite you can finish cutting it, solder it with tin and slide a heat shrink wrap

The end part, having a larger diameter, prevents the area where the level is read from rubbing against the duct

The THP turbo engine regulates the intake manifold absolute pressure measured with the MAP sensor. This is regulated with the turbo solenoid valve that moves the turbo wastegate. If on the engine maps the pressure has to go to 1 bar, it will go equal to 1 bar even if you change the filter. The...

But what it sucks from the inside is minimal, there are some plastic pieces so it can take in the fresh air through a space in the grille between the headlight and the radiator.

When I bought the car the locking key was broken, unusable, I went to the Peugeot agency and ordered a key for €92, I had to show the documentation of the car. It arrived a week later. I was able to easily remove 3 of the 4 screws, the fourth took a lot more but it came out at the end, leaning...

Look at the filter that I explained in the previous messages. It is a small and strange filter since it is like rubber, but a porous rubber, it is about 2-3 cm long, it seems that if it gets stained with oil it clogs. The turbo solenoid valve opens the wastegate with vacuum, but then it needs...

MAP stands for Manifold Absolute Pressure which is mounted on the intake manifold, #12 on the diagram, it's only one, the others are not MAP sensors. Also, if the problem is that the sensor is dirty, it is usually not necessary to change it, just clean it with Contact Cleaner spray I say that...
