Gt200
New Member
Hi there I have recently had to change the thermostat housing, knock sensor , Imap and Map sensors on my 2013 GT200. Without doubt thr hardest car I have ever had to work on. Access is so limited and had to use multiple torches and mirror to even find the knock sensor. All the sensors have now been changed and there are no longer any DTCs. I had 6 ! I could not access the knock sensor from below as suggested in the manual. I had to remove the inlet manifold. Even with this removed this job was extremely difficult, frustrating and the air was blue for quite a while !
Two problems regarding this car...
1. The peugeot manual 1800 pages PDF does not seem to have much information regarding the GT200 engine wise. Much is patently very different to the 156 thp.
2. I cannot seem to locate and engage the two steel tongues bolted to the underside of the inlet manifold which slide into rubber mounted slots. I cant even see what the bracket looks like. If I hadnt bought a bargain second hand inlet manifold (£24) for a GT200, (for reference mine is undamaged) , I wouldn't even have know the bracket was there. Not shown in the manual at all.
Can anybody advise me please what this bracket looks like and how to re install the inlet manifold back onto it. I have mounted the manifold using the 5 bolts only and after about 40+ hours of work to get this far i am tempted to leave it mounted solely by the studs as it seems to be resting on something at the rear. Any photos would be a great help as well. I have attached the original DTCs in case it may help somebody else.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Jonathan
