Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / August 2005307 Problems ? (engl. Version of Question
Hi there just in case the solution is to find among the English speaking friends. Does anybody know whats behind the rumor that the 307 has problems which are so hard (or not) to fix that use-car deales start to swim in 307s? Thanks for any hint which helps me to make a smart buying decision. Bernd > Hi there > just in case the solution is to find among the English speaking friends.

I can honestly say that my 307 (HDI-110 D-Turbo) ran like a dream (apart from the cost for the tires at ~£120each, that was a bit of a shock and the windscreen wipers don't wipe to the edge of the screen making right hand turns in rain suicidal, the carpet doesn't fit, and the CD player is unreliable as hell) until the warranty ran out a few weeks ago, now the outstanding fault list is: Faulty FAP filter, ~£600 to fix Coolant leak, dealer has no idea where the fluid is going Unable to program new keys Suspension bushes need replacing. Car sucks, avoid like the plague, unless you want to take mine off my hands ;-) Which is all a shame as when it works I find it a really nice car to drive :-( Stephen. > Car sucks, avoid like the plague, unless you want to take mine off my > hands ;-) > > Ugly too.

Give the 307 credit where it's due. It needs all the credit it can get. Actually, our family 307, after many faults in the first three years, is now working perfectly, apart from a creaking rear door. It's like it's come of age, got over its naughty childhood...

The 306 on the other hand, especially the Phase 3, is still a pretty and nimble car. That's the comparison I was making with the 307. You are right that it needs the credit it can get, but I think it's too late; people are waiting for the 308 already. SignaturesA >>> Ugly too.

Saw an article the other day saying that a "new" 307 is coming out soon. Can't say any more 'cos I can't find the article now.

Hi, > Saw an article the other day saying that a "new" 307 is coming out soon. > Can't say any more 'cos I can't find the article now. It has already been launched at least in France. I saw some of them on the road. Regards, G.T g.t6@worldonline.fr 205 Diesel & turbo-Diesel : www.205d.com >>>> Ugly too.

It's out and looks quite nice. Redesigned front end, new rear lights, and a new radio/CD and display. Plus a much better multiplex system (Can-Can) like the 407. >It's out and looks quite nice.

Have they fixed the issue (for right-hand drive cars at least) of the wipers not wiping 6" of the right-hand side of the windscreen?

I also hope (and pretty sure) they still use several networks (there were 4 different networks with the older systems, to keep the car working if one of them was failing) with the BSI as a gateway between them.
