i need to know if its possible to remove the anti theft locking wheel nut on my 406 without the adapter nut key thingy. i do have the adapter key thing, but the nut itself is knackered, :frown: the 4 small hole which the adapter slots into have rounded off and the adapter key just has no grip and sl...

hi.
i get a strange noise,it happens only when i brake and turning left at same time.
at 1st i thought it mite be the pads,but they are fine. the noise is def comming from front of vehicle.
any ideas?

also, does anyone know how much the rear disc and pads ?
its a 110HDI

yep, sorry. it does say 12,500. DOH!

so will this number count down to when it thinks it
next needs a service?

in your knowledge section, you have a section on resetting the service spanner.

i did what it said. and display used to say 800, but now its gone to 125000!

any ideas on how to get rid of it? ive tried doing again but it stays the the same.

only purchased the car 2 weeks ago,so i couldnt say.

it could be that im not use to it.

suppose i will find out one day when i try and pull away and it just sits there.

what i wanted to know was, does it tend to go straight away or will it slip for a while?

not to sure wot 'creep' is, so i couldnt say if it was that. but im guessing as the friction plate wears down,the 'biting point' position on the clutch will rise (hence now very little movement of the clutch pedal is needed to change gear) so as the biting point is like this,will it continue to rise...

when i press the clutch pedal,it releases as soon as start to press it (about 2 to 3 inches of travel). does this mean that its near the end of its life? there is no slipping at all (yet) its a 2 litre diesel (110), on a 51 plate. how long do u think its got left? and i heard that the price varies a...

thanks for info, will take a look,at the green manual.
if it covers the HDi engine then great.

in my original post i stated the HPi engine,which is incorrect (sorry guys).
got a bit mixed up when i saw it on the Haynes website.

Hi to all

Have just joined your group,having just brought my 406.
Does anyone know if you can get a service manual,the Haynes one is available i know,
but it does not cover the HPi diesel engine (that what it says in its website).

so any ideas?

any info would be great.
