Send a note to thread starter 207_gti, he seems to be very experience and techy in all weird Peugeot problems, hope he able to help you. I have read his other posts and replies, he is really good.

I am having trouble starting the my Peugeot 307 SW - 2006 model. The battery is just 4 months old. One mechanic says that there is a problem with the starting motor. Any other suggestions? Anywhere I can get a second opinion?

when this happened once in my car the mechanic said its the alternator had to be replaced.

this is very strange and a matter of concern.

Just wondering, if there is any external combustion engine too. Lol.

Try in Sharjah used tire and wheel market after American university on Sahara center road. You might get lucky.

Should cost you around 2000 to 3000 Dhs.

Change the engine oil. warning sign can also means that it needs to be changed.

It is so hilarious, that same day you are putting thread for buying peugeot and seek an advise whereas another member ranting about Peugeot cars and their service in Dubai......lolololol.

I am not influencing your decision, make a calculative and educated decision. Good luck

Sad to hear that, they are really a joker indeed.

Sometime you got to laugh it out or else u cant live with this type of idiotness. Have patience bro, god will give you good car back. AMEN........lol.

You might feel little better after knowing this little secret: "You are not alone"

Try to change the gear oil and filter if its due or when in doubt. If still happens on shj BM road crossroad hoorani or toorani name shop builds all auto gears. See him. He is good at gears. Of course rebuilding is better than changing. Any day.

Very creatively thought full form.

No comment on actual relevancy level.

If only speedometer failed and rest all dash numbers and light are working, then i have to doubt on Vehicle speed sensor.

Its usually located in and around gearbox.

If some lights and other reading has also stopped in dash then i would suspect the some fuse, relay or loos connection. good luck.

Check the fuses and relay first, then loose connection around or behind the music system, then check the earthing.

For sure you dont need to change the whole manifold as its very expensive. Instead go to BM road spare part guys and ask them for flap assembly in Intake manifold. They will get you the that small bit in which flap is already drilled and bolted. Your mechanic need to remove the whole manifold and replace that part.

May be find some other (not lazy) mechanic to do this job.

Full cluster failure is quite remote possibility. Check for some loose connection or relay or fuses, that might help.

If car is overheating AC automatically switch off compressor and blower throw hot air.

If no gas in compressor due to some leak then also it happen same.

Check u r in which zone and take action accordingly to fix it.

Your car is not normal in heating, but normal in making loud noise and rattle when overheat.

Check your AC fan if it working with AC or not, i doubt it isnt working and when u r driving it gets cold air from out so engine is fine, but when u stop it doesnt get enuf air supply and overheat and then engine fan second speed kicks in making hurricane noise and though its light car, it also shakes the car. Its a job of engine fan to run on two speed. One is normal, sober down. And second is HULK speed to help engine cool if anything fails, like in ur case may be AC fan.

If not, get your thermostat changed too, Check radiator cap is holding enuf pressure or not.

There shud be leak, or else coolant never get consumed. Find it hard dude.

There is guarnateed leak in your cooling system (HVAC) better show to good mechanic who can find out leak first and fix it and then top up gas next time.

One shud do the pressure test to compressor and lines by putting normal c02 to max pressure and watch the pressure gauge closely for any drop in next 10 mins. It will drop the pressure then that means there is leak for sure. Then they can check the leak with soap water and foam around compressor and all AC lines.

If still cant find it, ask your mechanic to check the evaporator it must be leaking then.

Its at 80k or 100k better double check with Swaidan guys.

There is no such light brand of type which is RTA approved or not. Get good quality that fits well and align properly on road and not incoming traffic then its fine.

I suggest Yellow hat has good range and they can install professionally too.

Check the starter relay first, then fuel pump is supplying fuel or not, then starter motor.

yes in engine bay you have fuse box that has fuse for cigg lighter, check it must be blown out.

piston ring is leaking the engine oil and burning the oil with fuel mixture. Ceck the oil after week if its low level than for sure its piston rings leakig.

fixed the issue may sound small but it was major thanks salmaank
