Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / July 2005306 Radio + Air con
Hello, I recently purchased a 306 TD sport S-reg 1998. ***RADIO QUERY*** If i manually pop in a station, say 97.9, it'll come up with RADIO 1 and will play sound. However, if i do an auto seek, it doesn't pick up any stations????? It just goes all the way through and never stops again. Also, if i do manually select a station, if i go under a tree i lose recption - bif naff! I have taken out the (Clarion) head unit, and the aerial (with very weird looking co-ax connection) is firmly in the back of the unit. The aerial on the roof as a slight kink in it. Now, Is this a problem? or is it just Peugeot? ***AIR CON*** I'm after the air conditioning pipes. Seemingly its the longer one that has broke. But whilst i'm at it, i might as well do the shorted one too. Are there any other places than peugeot i could get the parts? Moneys a tad tight after just buy the car :o( Cheers and thanks in Advance ant > Hello, > I recently purchased a 306 TD sport S-reg 1998.

The aerial is fine. As for the air con components have you tried www.eurocarparts.com try giving them a ring if you can't find what you want on the site.

The design is flawed, in that the flexible pipe from the engine-mounted compressor waggles the end of the longer aluminium pipe which eventually fatigue-fractures at the bend, just next to the support. If you replace the parts the same thing will happen again in time. My local aircon specialist fitted longer flexible pipes to shorter fixed pipes, with the joints made just next to the pipe supports, rather than some inches away in mid-air. Peter |
