Post by Daveyravey »

Hi everyone

Just thought i'd blow by & show my face.

I've just bought a 02 plate 406 2lt HPi, did a search to see if there was any owner clubs about & hey presto i found you guys.


Laters folks

Well I''ve had mine for nearly 7 years now, since it was 6 month old. The only problems I had have been a knackered egr valve and an irritating recurring misfire that no-one (dealers, specialists, local independant etc...) could resolve, took me about 3 years to realise the the plug gaps are opening themselves up over several thousand miles :roll: . Apart from that it's been fine, really is a lovely mowtah and I've no intention of changing it soon.

High Pressure Injection. Its a 2.0l 'lean burn' engine introduced in Nov 2000 for the 406. I believe it is a petrol version of the HDi in many respects.
2000 D9 Coupé 2.0 SE EW10J4 Scarlet Red - 5 litres of oil gone in 500 miles!!! Time for a new coupe me thinks
