    Rear Spoiler Issues Still

    My 156 spoiler never popped up at a certain speed 50mph I think in handbook but will come up if I hit the spoiler raise button by the handbrake. To think of it raising and lowering automatically does not seem a good idea anyway, if I am making a fast roads ie. a motorway trip I pop it up for...

    Parts availability

    Part I received from Autodoc although notifying me that it was correct for my car was wrong. I am over to my Peugeot dealership for correct part soon, a coolant pipe that will be cheaper than Autodoc. I should just have gone there first. Peugeot parts direct are good too on line.

I have had a slog going to online parts companies such as Autodoc, Peugeot parts direct etc. Finally found the coolant pipe from rad to tank at Online Car Parts Aka Autodoc. They don't give a delivery date until after you order so my car is resting until part...

    Transmission fluid

    Can't do any harm to have level checked. Can this possible low level be cause of occasional sounds on gear change?

    Thanks all for suggestions, garage says they use Peugeot diagnostic scanner. Can putting E5 unleaded or super unleaded switch over make any difference? I was using new E10 for a while before garage reccomended super unleaded

    Engine Fault. P1338 code. Timing Chain?

    Thank you all, I am not as clued up as you are but wishful thinking and being at the mercy of my garage leaves me to leave it to them.

    Engine Fault. P1338 code. Timing Chain?

    All of the engine work I think will have covered those checks, it has been through Peugeot workshop also. Let you know when cat fitted, if it doesn't work I'll have it removed and start over.
