confusing one here.

ibought another 406 hdi last night in the view of breaking,
but after thinking about it its too clean and too new to destroy, :(

last owner say it as got a Fap problem itl drive for 10 mins or so and then Go into Hulk mode,
he says peugeot told him it needs the tank filling in the derv tank ?
what is this tank and what stuff shouid go in it ?

after driving it for over an hour its drove faultless its not as quick as my 2.0 hdi but its smoother and comfier 8)
how soon and regular shouid it throw its sell into limp mode if the tank was empty ?
ideas?
thanks inadvance

Is this a 2.0 with a fap or a 2.2? A 2.0 110 FAP would be a first on here...

A 2.2 is certainly worth tinkering with :supafrisk:

Typical that the dealer mentioned the eolys tank needs refilling but effectively let the car go away as a scrapper :?

Since you think that of it, any chance we could do a swap, a type B display for that type C display in the car? Plus £20?
Im still after a sat nav screen.

iwouid do mate but itd lower the value of the car if idecided to sell it,
everything is there including 3 cds and remote so parting with the screen wouid make them useless
ithink the 406 sat nav does its job but its no where near as good as a tom tom etc,
