    Happier days before lockdown

    Hi Everybody, I dug out my DSLR the other day to take some sunset photos. I'd forgotten that I took a few photos on holiday in Snowdonia last year and came across this one' It was taken by me at Black Rock Sands in North Wales in June 2019. You can legitimately drive onto the beach. In the...

    Engine Fault. P1338 code. Timing Chain?

    Hi Everybody. I had my 156 minor serviced and MOTd by a non Peugeot dealer on Friday 12th July. The next day I was going to do a short 11 mile round trip, however, after about 1/3 mile I noticed the car was running a bit lumpy. Initially I thought it might be due to the four new brake pads and...

    MOT and tyre repair kit out of date

    Hot on the heels of my previous MOT/Lighting function question is this nightmare one. My big yellow tyre inflater/puncture repair kit has on it ... EXP: 05/2018 Will this be a fail? My car was registered in April 2013. This suggests to me that these devices are only good for five years. I...

    MOT and side lights 156GT

    Hi all, I'm doing basic checks ahead of my MOT which is due in two weeks. My sidelights don't appear to work at all. When the stalk is on the single bulb setting (after auto) then no bulbs illuminate, just the DRLs. I can see very small bulbs in a housing which are the main beam bulbs. In the...

    London T-charge for filthy polluting RCZ THP 156

    I live nowhere near London and am as enthusiastic about driving there as I am in driving to Aleppo in Syria. However, I was curious when I saw a website for TFL (Transport for London) to check if your vehicle is subject to the new £10 extra charge per day...

    Dashcam advice please

    Hi Everybody, I want to have a dashcam for the front of my car, maybe rear too. I'm not going to spend a fortune on the camera(s), maybe £100 ish, each. I don't really need advice on the camera itself as there are loads of places to find that info. There are somewhat less places to find an...

    Emergency stop lead to "Engine Fault: Repair Needed"

    Hi All, It occurred to me recently that I should test my ABS properly. I have occasionally braked a little bit heavily at high speeds and was a little bit worried that the car "wobbled" a tiny bit in the process. So today I tried it at 20mph and then 30mph, just around the corner from where I...

    The good old days of driving in the 1980s

    I'm reminiscing on the days before speed cameras and obsessive cop cars............... I rarely drive on motorways these days. It is because I have a mere 40 mile return trip to work. I leave home at 06:55 and leave work at 20:00. I drive almost entirely on the A68. Back in 1986 I used to...

    My RCZ mods are complete

    It took me a while but she is now "just right". What do you think? Did I do a good job? Some other guy had his GS3 in for mods too. I quite like it. Can you guess the approximate date and venue where I really did take these pics? No cheating. Apologies in advance because I'm quite certain...

    Hi all, I've read about Rain X here on the forum and decided to buy some. I found this 500ml bottle on Amazon (prime) for just £5.00 incl delivery. It is however an "Add-on" item so you need a £20 spend of eligible products. It seems to be at least £7.99 everywhere else. link...
