I know you two guys work on Peugeots and are very knowledgeable about them.
Nigel may remember, from the affair of the Recirculation Motor, that my 406
2ltr HDI 110 is a hybrid.   It was built in 1999 and shares parts from the
phase one cars with parts from the phase 2 model.    I even had to buy two
Haynes manuals to cover everything

I have to obtain a replacement front offside (RHD) wheel arch liner and I
was wondering whether you can tell me whether the design of this changed
between phase 1 and phase 2.

Many thanks for any advice you can give.

i'll check the part numbers on laser for you tomorrow keith to see if they
are different .I think they may be different  but can't be sure as i don't do
much service work etc ....my head's up the top by the electrics ;-) all the
best keith...        p.s.. nigel may know off the top of his head though...

Yes I believe they are different. The earlier one just does under the
wing, and the later one has an extension on it at the front. The
extension is there on the early version but is screwed to the liner.
The later one has no screws. The extension is part of the liner. As to
which one yours is, being a "hybrid", you'll have to get under and
look for the screws!!
I think to look on laser Keith you will need his VIN number
considering the trouble we had with his recirc motor!

Thanks Nigel, I really appreciate the way that you and Mark are willing to
help people like me.   You will see in my reply to Mark that it sounds like
I have the later version, you will also see the sad story of what happened.
I have given Mark my VIN number, as you suggested, so that I can be certain.

Thanks again,

Keith

No probs, Keith. I guess you were lucky that the damage was confined
to just the liner. Hopefully it won't cost too much!

Thanks Mark.  I suspect, from what Nigel said that I probably have the later
one.  What has happened is that we parked in a car park at Monet's Garden in
France and they have this wonderful idea of dividing the parking spaces up
by using 4x4 posts abut 6 inches high.   Consequently, as my wife reversed
out, she turned the steering (as you do) and this post slid nicely between
the wheel and wing and ripped the offside valance/bumper off.   Miraculously
the body panels are undamaged, simply folded back up into position, but the
front part of the liner was ripped off.   We drove 150 miles back to our
hotel with the valance/bumper secured by three camera straps.

If you would double check for me by looking it up I would be extremely
grateful and, in line with Nigel's point, here is my VIN number:
VF38BRHZE80710298.

Many thanks

Keith

Hi keith yes basically what nigel said is correct.The early type has 3 parts
front arch part ,rear arch part and a flap which is screwed to the front part
which is directly underneath the washer reservoir .But after build code 8610
the front arch and the flap come as one .Even though it changes the way it
comes i.e. in 2 pieces as opposed to 3 they can be swapped from  either
vehicle .which ever one you order it will fit its just that ones in 2 pieces
and the others in 3. all the best mark

According to your VIN number you should have the two piece type (the
one with the screws). I think you said you have the one piece type, so
the hybrid strikes again!! Anyway here are the numbers and prices.

Seperate type  7136A0      9.79
Joined together type   7136L5     8.10

No, I don't know either why the bigger one is cheaper!

Thanks Nigel.   Actually I was wrong on my first look at the other side and
the VIN number is correct, it is a two parter.   I am amazed at the price, I
thought it would be quite expensive (like most Peugeot parts)

Couldn't get back to you sooner as we have been touring Scotland after
making a temporary (and obviously successful) repair to the front end.

Thanks again, your help is always appreciated.

Keith
