Code Reader needed
Could anyone P.M. a link to a code reader that would be compatible for my 2.0HDI.
Re: Code Reader needed
The goverment made manufacturers use a universal reader for diesel powered vehicles from 2004
Thus all 406 diesels need a dedicated reader
I believe the software is pp2000 ( peugeot planet ) and the reader is lexia
Search on ebay for cheap clones, they are just under £150

Re: Code Reader needed
I can't remember the date for petrols, but was a few years earlier, so a normal code reader may work with them, but if it's a diesel it HAS TO BE the dedicated reader
I have tried a couple of readers on my HDi and it will sense there is one fault code when attaching either of them, but they won't read the actual code, hence why you need the dedicated reader

OBDII system to be implemented for all petrol from 2001 and all diesel from 2004. Think pugs have had the system for several years before that as the US brought it in as a requirement for all vehicles from 96, believe the earlier ones used one of the ISO code sets.
