Re: xu1 j4r cam belt change help 1997 406 D8

Hey Jasper, thanks for all your help. We got it back all done with no real problems. Strangely enough though we can now hear the belt noise. Friend said that it is 10ml wider; is this a known problem do you think?

Re: 1.9 Lx TD SHUDDER SHAKING

Hi, did you inspect fans for damage, when they come on to cool engine this may be cause. Our D8 has one of the two fans with damage.

Re: Just bought 1997 406 ST D8 4D and strange noises

Thanks, will do that and we are taking it to Peugeout dealer Monday for an 'A' service and get a report on what needs doing.
The guy said the baring in the fan tends to go on these so that is probably the cause.
Will keep posted on result at any rate.

Re: Just bought 1997 406 ST D8 4D and strange noises

Hi and thank you.
A mate just came up and took me for a drive.
We have determined that the shudder only happens with aircon turned on.
Perhaps the extra power the engine needs with aircon on is not being supplied?

Thanks
