  • Purchase advice 406 Coupe 3.0V6

    Hello guys, I have to buy this car.http://suche.mobile.de/…/showDetails.html?… Unfortunately I have no idea about Peugeot.How good are these cars? Is the 3.0 even suitable for gas operation? How good is the automatic transmission? How many gears? Tiptronic? What about the maintenance of the gearbox and the engine? Do the cars have rust problems? What should I pay attention to in general? I would be very grateful for every tip. Greeting Artik

  • AL4 automatic transmission – new software even possible?

    Hello, with my newly bought 406 2.0HDI the transmission went over Jordan on the 2nd day. Switched back under load on the mountain… WüK could not grip… Emergency program. The next day after 100km it became worse and worse… Now it jumps already after a few meters into the emergency program. The thing has only 80TKM down and I assume that it is really only on the solenoid valves. So I ordered 2 new ones and wait until they are flown in here. Question: Can I get the So Is there aftermarket cable and which software is needed for this? Unfortunately, there is no Peugeot Dealer for me on the island… Greetings Rod

  • Possibility to deactivate lamp testing at 407SW due to permanent false reports?

    Hello together, as I have seen in a few articles, there seems to be a fundamental problem with the lamp test. With me come with main display permanently messages when flashing “brake leucts defective” and with every braking process!!!! / “blink lamp defective”. It is annoying huge. A few times the trigger was a lamp of the license plate light which then led to the temporary healing of the error message for a few weeks. hten has already contributed to temporary healing. But I don’t want to replace whole incandescent lamps every 3 weeks. In the forum I have read from various attempts to clean all contacts and to install new mass cables,… Honestly, I don’t really want to lay new mass connections. Does anyone know if you can’t just disable the function of the lamp test? And if so how? Because actually this function is quite useless. If a flasher or fader ch is broken, I actually get it so promptly with.. Best regards MYK975

  • Again steering wheel flapping while braking.

    Hey guys. ALso now to my problem. My 406er has already eaten 3 sets of brake discs this year + 2 sets of pads. So the first were brake discs from the previous owner on it & found it about 4 months after the purchase that it flutters while braking. Okay, brake discs + pads in front. No great quality. i.what accessories from Peugeot dealer After about 2000km the whole shit started again, & It squeak at the same time as if something had a “eight”. Chlechter quality. According to statement by Peugeot, my wheel bearing v.l had a game. Okay, the wheel bearing & hub front left replaced. Then new brake discs built by FEBI + Org. brake pads Peugeot, of course support surfaces wonderfully clean made. All 4 tires completely redesigned. At the same time almost complete ha renewed. Both carrier plates, brake disc + pads, brake calipers, hand brake + Bowden trains etc etc…. And now it starts again, about 4000km later & 2 months… Al so nothing else can be like that again or?, because if Radnabe or something else had a defective, the fluttering would be already available from the new BRemsen up to now or do I see something wrong? Data about the car: Peugeot 406 year 1998 3003/770 2.0L petroler. Brake system Lucas. Steel rims (fehtl eventl ventilation?) 155000km I need help. The brake eats me & my portemoney!!! Greeting

  • Peugeot 406 key broken

    Moin people! Yesterday evening, my shoe keys decided to give up the spirit. Well, not in the actual sense. I can still open it by radio and also manually. But at the pressure point, there is usually some rubber device with the Peugeot sign on it. Is there any way to replace it? Can one buy iwo something like that? The key can be opened, because of the battery. Therefore, I could buy a new “cap” and replace it. Only where can I get it like this. What? I’m gonna need a whole new one! Where else can I get this for a 97’s 406?

  • Graphical parameter measurement with PP2000

    Hello, I have difficulty to start the graphical parameter measurement with diagnostic tool PP2000. I want to write the actual value charge pressure and other parameters like set-value charge pressure, engine speed, etc.. The measurement works as such, but I can’t find out how to specifically select the parameters you want to write along, and then start the recording. I already pressed F2 and also F5(for save) it was saved but nothing. Is also not a wunbder, since I have already pressed F2 and also F5(for save) it was saved. The files should be stored as a csv file under App\Outlirep\Trace\mpm and evaluated in Excel. Can this be done without Excel in PP2000? Can someone help you? (The reason for this is that the engine light comes with emergency mode. Error message: sporarisch too high charging pressure. This happens every time I drive around 1900/Umin. Above and below it everything is ok.)

  • Experience with the installation of exhaust parts without E – test mark of Euro Trade Syndicate LT

    Hallöle, has one of you ever been at the company, Euro Trade Syndicate LTD (exhaust only), or Fröschl car accessories, exhaust parts without E – test mark installed in a car and yet has come through the AU without any problems? Since for my Peugeot 605 / SV 3.0 / 12 valves / 2975ccm, the exhaust parts are no longer available via the Peugeot dealer, I pushed on these companies at Ebay, and could order for 47 €, the middle pot, but without E – test mark. challämpfer I bought from the company car – exhaust, Fröschl car accessories on the Internet, for 76 €, with the indication of the pre-muffler, E – test mark : requested, in test. I understand that without the test mark, it represents a certain risk to come through the AU, but a buddy said that it could work without the test mark, or you do not necessarily have to fail. Normal exhaust systems, in contrast to sports exhaust systems, do not need an E – test mark, is important only, The parts, according to the companies, are EU goods, i.e. no Asia – import. I had ordered these parts because of the favorable price ! If the quality of the materials should not be as good as the original parts should be from the manufacturer, this speaks only for example 5 – 7 years, this is actually relative to me at the price, since the original parts would otherwise cost at least double. The medium pot is probably of Bosal and the presonic shock of Edex ! Greetings, Olli

  • Expansion of the particulate filter

    Hello Together, would like to expand my particle filter on the Peugeot 406 HDI FAP 2.2. Is there a removal instruction or one of you? After the removal I want to clean the particle filter through, now I have heard that the cleaning of the particle filter should take place by the exit in opposite direction, who can confirm this or help me with how the FAP is flushed correctly, or is there a working instruction for the washing process? Who of you has a FAP already cleaned by flushing how is the right example? Does what have to be reset on the software side after the assembly of the FAP? LG Markus
