10w40 is fine for the 406.

10w40 is fine if u have a hot climate but as we here in the uk can have cold winters we have a moderate climate
sorry for the crappy pic but it does state moderate climate 5w40

Re: Front brake pad wear
They look like Peugeot workshop manuals in html form. They are out there for free, I'm sure there was a link to them on here somewhere in the distant past.FarmerPug wrote:but what are they even copies of in the first place? are these just haynes manuals in pdf form?
