I would appreciate any comments or advice as to a problem
The car is a yplate 406 GLX saloon. The radio displays all its information
i.e. selected station volume control indicators but no sound come out of the
system. Suddenly it kicks into life.

Does anybody knows where is wiper relay for front wipers? Car is peugeot
306, Saint Tropez, 1999. Wipers are working bit not parking properly and
i dont hear clicking so i think that reley dead.
Thanks!

The wastegate on my turbo seems to open too soon. I rigged up a gauge
to the take off on the right hand side of the inlet manifold and I get
9psi max reading. This seems too low. Does anyone know the factory
setting for the max maniflod pressure on this engine?

So, the wife's car starter motor is on the decline. How do I know because I
have to use a hammer to hit the motor to make the brushes connect.
So Ineed to take it out and it looks quite difficult as it's behind the
engine (1.6 petrol) and looks difficult to access.

Does anyone know where I can find the relay panel on a 2004  307 1.6, right
hand drive?
TIA

I've got a 52 307 XSI (worse car I've ever had, tbh. anti polution fault
every summer, bits take months to turn up..) It has just been in for a
safety recall (code X8Z - something to do with 'salt water on road and
power steering do not mix'). Also, whilst it was there, the radio ...

I have a 2000 306 HDi Meridian (90) and would like to know if any of you out
there have any info regarding problems with running the HDi engine on 100%
Bio-Diesel.
I have heard various different moans about injector/fuel pump problems and

Sussed why the engine sounded like a tractor! One of the bottom studs on the
back of the head for the exhaust manifold has bust and left the remains of
the stud in the head. So, the air box needs to come off and the manifold off
too but what are my chances of getting the broken ...

Just done 850 miles from London to halfway down France and back mostly
at 70-80 mph and got 46.5 mpg out of a 100,000mile 405 1769cc turbo
diesel estate. Is this just normal ... or better?

Please help ASAP as I am kind of stuck in Blackpool!!!
Weathers nice but I need to get home.
The car is a 406 2.1TD
The car has done 148k miles and is in reasonable condition.

My front washer pump seems to have failed - 1992 405 TD estate. I've
taken off the spring holding clip on the big reservoir in front of the
driver, but I can't work out what fiddly movements are necessary to get
the reservoir out to change the pump. Any guidance welcome. Thanks.

On my Peugeot 306 1.6 1998, I have noticed that when temperatures are hot
outside my engine isnt performing as well as it should do, as it runs very
different when temperature is cooler, got a lot more poke to it,
is this called engine pinging or something, as it sounds slightly ...

I've had a 406 diesel estate for about 3 months now -- well happy with
it (it's a 1999 2.0 HDi).  I now need a towbar with single electrics.
Does anyone have a view on whether it's a DIY job (I'm pretty competent
at most DIY jobs on a car including electrics, but have little

Good day,
I experienced a strange problem with my 2004, 307 1.6 this morning.
On the way to work my wipers switched themselves on and no matter what I do,
besides switching off the car, I cannot get them to stop. (I don't have rain

I have just bought and installed a Clarion CD Changer for my 406 (99-), but
the Clarion head unit seems to be ignoring it.
It's a second-hand changer so it may be broken, but I have heard that the
Clarion (MUX) head unit may need re-initialising in order for it to talk to
