How much olil was there and was it fresh....Mine had oil on the ledge of the intercooler as you look down it and I washed it off with degreaser and none has come back...A mechanic said it had probably built up over 10's of thousands of mile so not to worry unless in the next few hundred it came back...

I USED TO RUN A TAXI FIRM AND ONE OF THE DRIVERS HAD A 406 2 LITRE HDI 110 ESTATE ON A 97 PLATE AND HE RAN IT BETWEEN THE TAXI OFFICE AND MANCHESTER AIRPORT ON A DAILY BASIS 7 DAYS PER WEEKT AT 6 TRIPS PER DAY.

Thanks for the nearly immediate response? I popped the cover off and have taken it on a 40 mile round trip to preston and give it a bit of a thrashing (as I would assume the pressure would max out) and you were right it hadnt moved and it must the the cover.

Hi Peugeot 406 hdi 2 litre 2002 plate 135k on clock!

They work great and as per the previous post the only dodgy bit is separating the ...

Checked all the pipeworks (intercoooler etc) and no holes splits etc. Driving into work this morning and remember...
