Re: Catastrophic power steering failure
Here today as my 406's power steering is showing signs of a faulty pump and this was the first post I came across. But here to say that I managed to put an angle grinder through my Boxer main feed pipe (won't happen again!) but I got a replacement made up for £32 at my local hydraulic engineering s...

Re: Thermostats housing keep Cracking
Yeah, that's the same part I had an issue with removing when I did my head rebuild. It's buried under the intake pipes ect on the end of the head above the gearbox. My advice would be to use a genuine Peugeot one or find out who supplies Peugeot I've never had an issue with mine cracking but it's oe...

Re: Parts compatibility
Unless you get very lucky you'll probably have to fabricate some.

Re: HDI 90 engine issue
I've only ever owned one Japanese car - albeit in disguise... A 1983 Triumph Acclaim :cheesy: It was brilliant - reliable, comfortable, surprisingly well built, easy to work on ( the different size bolts were colour coded..! ) and fairly nippy for a 1.3. It was a grandad style car so I never got pu...

Re: HDI 90 engine issue
That first picture with the wire, That's just the outer insulation broken through it going brittle. This problem get's worse the older the car get's & Peugeot are renowned for small gauge low quality wire & plugs :roll: I personally wouldn't waste my money on a used MAF. Just drive round with yours ...

Re: HDI 90 engine issue
If it's still the o.e maf then it'll be done for, These go out of trim through use. Always go for a genuine one, not a cheep eBay one as it'll be no better if not worse. You can always try unplugging your's, I can't remember if it works on the Siemens 90bhp but it works on the Bosch 110bhp. Must be ...

Re: Sits too high at the back?
It's a bit firmer obviously, but not in a bad way. It hasn't ruined it (for me anyway) Also it doesn't roll into the bends as much (which I prefer). But yes I'm very happy overall & they are good quality & have done over 50k with them fitted. Mainly due to being new & 40mm lower As the spring rate i...

Re: Anyone breaking a 99 406?
Not so sure about that, it's not the hose that's gone, it's the metal pipe. The heat shield sawed through the pipe and I don't have the whole of the pipe anymore, it dropped off somewhere. Can pirtek form the nipple that is screwed into the steering box? Also as stated I don't have the whole part a...
