Vac Oil Leak

Hi Everyone, very proud own of an old and slightly rough 406 here. My current main problem is I have a trickle of oil coming out at the bottom of the vac near the lower bolt. I took it off which was easy and discovered no small o-ring, there was one round the bit that inserts into the cam. I didn't ...

Re: My 406 Break - bought it for work, but already love the car

I had a terrible situation with an aux belt that wen tin my 1.9 td. it for no reason jumped off the pulleys when I hit a speed bump (slowly) and then got stuck in the cam belt and, because I didn't know what was going on and my mate was advising me to try things over the phone, I tried starting it a...

Re: P8 406 Car Radio / Tape player

Ha! I never even knew about it to notice, I would say it is quite likely, the whole car was in great condition when I got it. Do want to pay for postage and I'll send it for free?

Re: Car key

Thanks! I don't understand about the transponder, why would I get a new one if it didn't do remote control? Does the non-blade parts of the key have more functions than simply remote locking?

Re: Car key

Would all of this be the same with the older style Gen 1 Peugeot 406 keys? I have 1 key, I'm not sure if I have an alarm, but I do have remote locking that works, currently. I need a new key, easiest thing to do would buy a new blade and get over losing the remote locking function if I lose the orig...

406 1.9 TD 1997 Saloon blue

I have this, which has been great until either the aux belt went and took the cam belt with it or a tool or something got into the belts and screwed everything up. It now doesn't start, might have bent pistons and all the associated damage but has great body work for its age and many other positives...

Re: New to forum and just bought a 406!

Thanks very much! I have some oil I have filtered but was going to run it all through a filter again to get it down to 1 micron.
EDIT: Hang on, don't you need to change the fuel filter for a Mann filter? Or is does it run with no mods at all?

New to forum and just bought a 406!

Hello! I just bought a 406 '97 saloon 1.9 TD. I bought it in Yate, near Bristol from a lovely guy. It is in great condition and has been well looked after but there are a few things I want to get sorted both mechanically and to suit my needs. I am not at all an experienced mechanic, so this will all...
