  1. Have you googled it? Bound to be a YouTube video ot instructions somewhere? Thats like vauxhall wanting 400 quid to replace headlights that are being supplied forva vectra c.. I did the job in less than an hour for 40 quid 

  2. Sounds like they justvwant your money.. Could be any thing frim a leaky pipe or heater matrix or radiator etc.. Could be leaking from tbe water pump.. It might be letting coolent into the bores on acceleration due to a weak head gasket.. Get a compression test done first and adk for the readings as a print out and post them here please

  3. Im an avid oldskool Peugeot fan! Had many 205 309 and 405s gti'sri's xsi's mi-16s i love em.. Had a few 306's to all got abused all got tuned and played with as much as my pocket and skills took me 🙂 but come 2000 their cars were very disappointing imo. And as Peugeot stand now i quite like the 308s but thata about it for me

  4. Hi welcome to the club 🙂 generic egr valve/sencor/dpf related...

     

    My saab 93 use to pop this code up a lot.. Did egr clean plus cleaned any sencers and did about 5 forced dpf regens over a month,, i sold yhe car on after that so unsure if it was cured.... 

     

    You might get a better read out using opcom vauxcom etc as it communicates properly with the canbus

  5. That is good that.. 

    I took a mate from margate to Winchelsea and back tuesday, i lut in £30 in @131.9p per litre (shell standard diesel) done aprox 165 miles in total... Not sure what tnat works out at but its not great..

     

    Drove down 2s up and the rest of the car was empty

    The trip back i had front and rear seats from a vectra b sri  in Thw  back.. Nothing else but me my and my mate in the car... 

     

    Wjat ever os going on has got worse because my last contract was chigwell which was approx 165 to 170 miles round trip depending on traffic etc on the m25 and m2.. I put £25quid in wach day foe that trip!... I knkw chigwell is all motorway and Winchelsea is a and b roads but that fact matey up top has done ll that milage woth the same engine (i knkw thw car itself is diffren)   but ive got a difference of over 100 miles 😞 however the difference between the all motorway journy and the a and b roads trip is boht right..

     

    I always expected less mpg on a motor but after id owned a few diffrent cars over my first 2 years drive ot was thw otber way roand 🤔 im hoping it dies soon or just falls apart ecause im allowed a new work car then 😂

  6. Had a few  Siggys now along with many vectra c too. Looks wise the only thing that lets these cars down is the dash board, someone wasnt very creative when designing it! The vectra c dash is about as interesting to look at as is the mk4 astra, dont hate me! Ive had a few of them to they just aint that pretty unless in full gsi form. 

    I want a vxr estate or anoyhet sri cdti 150 and make it a CdtTi apposed to a ttid 🙂

    siggyv6cdti   Wow!  where do you drive to and from to rack up 200 miles per day to travel to work?

    I was recently running a 2.2 CR-V and it too gave me around 45 - 50 mpg (higher readings were with a tuning box) and thought that was good.

    Mate i work all over the soit decorating.. Margate to north london a lot too

    My sri cdti 150 vecyra use to make 60+ mpg after a remap 

  8. Seriously? Ive heard good things about the twinport tbh.. And with mpg like that i might concider one for a work car,ive got a 2.2 Honda accord tourer which stuggles 42 mpg on my 200 mile a day round trip to work and back! I have a 3.0 v6 cdti signum ive got for personal use which i dont hamg about in and get 45mpg motorways and 35ish round town 

  9. Kumho

    I rate and always buy shod funds allow but ive been buying jinyu for the last couple of cars and turns out to be good for the money.. A little noisey but last well and grip pretty well.. Cheap at £70 for 235/35/19
