Yep, similar conclusion here, we have been busy poking and hoping, but to no avail, strong coffee, bed and then we shall try again tomorrow, maybe we'll get some inspiration to solve the mystery, if not back to the poking and hoping!

Yes the feed through the ignition is all ok and been checked with meter, we have discovered that if we remove one of the plugs (yellow) on the BSI everything works properly, could the power be going in the wrong way???
Totally dumbfounded, we are reduced to head scratching at the moment!!!

Hi Running out of ideas, all relays and fuses checked, rang Peugeot workshop today and foreman suggested amother thing to try, ie multiplug under carpet under throttle pedal, apparently common fault as water tends to get into it, but that is all ok. We have put it on computer today and cleared all f...

Hi All, I have lovely problem for a saturday afternoon (joy i could be relaxing and putting my feet up instead lol). We have a 406 diesel estate which managed to get stuck in a field, in an attempt to get it out, it was rocked on the starter. which unfortunately didn't work and burnt out the starter...

Just thought I'd update and thank you all for your input, after patiently awaiting a reasonably priced second hand High Pressure Diesel Pump on ebay, we fitted it last weekend and the car runs like a dream and the dreaded Engine Management light is now out. Then.... we took it for a test drive, but ...

Hi Folks Thanks for all the input, other half brought computer home from work last night, cleared all codes and started her up and reread her, High pressure diesel regulator jammed. New bit just under £700 but poss recon for about £200 plus fitting and cleaning the fuel rail and system. Its been sug...

Hi Got a problem with our unlucky Green 406 2.0 HDI (110) W reg. The service light has been coming on intermittantly and my other half had it read on the computer at work, it has directed us to the fuel rail and the throttle sensor. He got home last night and started fiddling and unfortunately she d...

Sorry for delay in posting what the problem was, but life got in the way and I forgot. We got another ignition barrel switch from the scrappy but that didn't work either it had the same problem. Luckily managed to got dosh back for it. My other half then stripped down our original ignition switch, c...

Thanks Steve, I have been having a look through several posts looks like the ignition may well be the problem. My other half wants to go back out there now and strip the ignition down!!! Joy!!! Snow and late nights in the garage without any heating in or outside of the car!!! Will let you know how w...

Hi Sorted ours out last weekend, my other half had lovely warm feet this week, the pollen filter was blocked and once cleaned improved the blow into the car, also middle facia vents weren't connected properly a small screw behind the middle passenger side vent sorted that one. Then this morning we h...

Hi
Have you had any luck sorting this as I have the same problem?
Any feedback you can give me would be appreciated as I intend to strip our system out at the weekend and try and fix it.
My poor other half is fed up of having cold feet before he even starts his day at work.
Thanks
Sammy

Hi I find that the heater in my W reg 406 although nice and hot doesn't seem to circulate the heat round the car when you have it on your feet and the screen and it tends to steam up a bit sometimes, expecially the rear and side windows. The blowers on the dash seem to get heat through them all the ...

Well the Hat seemed to fit very well, had a look under the bonnet to find the whistle and noticed a small chip out of the top of the plastic part of the EGR valve mounted on the back of the engine, with the engine running if you put your finger over the hole it sucks on it. Took it to my man with th...

Thanks everyone will let you know how we get on - About to put my detectives hat on (Thats if it ever stops raining today)
Will let you know how we get on.

Took it to the local Non Peugeot Peugeot Specialists who got it up and running by replacing Turbo Boost valve and tinkering. It was running nicely having driven it all week and other half took it to Stanstead to pick up sister in law absolutely no problems, Running on has stopped and she has plenty ...
