Just buy a new one VDO off ebay like 80 quid

Exactly that tbh, then you know it's got another 100k in it, whereas a scrap yard job could be dead again in six months.

got a second hand fuel pump and a crank shaft sensor so going to try them, fingers crossed it will work,

Rtha1353566875575677 is having the same problem in my old car and doing a little research I'm seeing the fuel pumps cropping up, be good to see if yours starts once you've changed it but could it not be the ecu??
RE: hdi wont start! - Poodle - 19-09-2013
It could be the ecu, but its very rare for the ecu to just die. Im not even 100% sure it was the ecu at fault when mine wouldnt go, as I changed a couple of things between the ecu and the car running again. Plus its rather expensive to fix and its not something you can check yourself, so makes sense to go through the bits that are cheap/free to check first

got it started yesterday, got a second hand fuel pump and a cam shaft sensor of a 307, changed fuel pump first tried it and wouldn't start, so changed cam shaft sensor and it started straight away. running perfect now. so it could be abit of both that was wrong with.

Fingers crossed thats solved it then bud.

How much of a job was it to do the cam sensor and the lift pump mate?
Mines stuck in the car park at work and they're starting to get p*ssed off at me because its in the 'car share' bays
cant they see its French 
Going to try towing it home late at night on Saturday, I'm having the same thing where it turns over strongly (especially after getting the jump leads on it) but just not catching, also getting the dial sweep (first time I've ever seen the fuel gauge at full
)After having the leads on it, it did fire for a split second but died instantly, and now its killing the battery with repeatedly trying it and for that reason I don't want to kill the already temperamental starter motor.
There was literally no warning before, sometimes it would just click when turning the key but it would start if you were quick and 'caught' it, but it ran and drove fine. It also just had £15 of derv in the day before so wasn't empty. Came out of work and it was just dead :/
The starter motor does need replacing but am I right in thinking it isnt the cause of this particular issue? As it turns over strongly?
Will check the fuses tonight, really puzzling :S Sorry to hijack thread but it sounds almost the same, but don't want to go buy a new lift pump/sensor etc without knowing first
Is it still worth running diagnostics, as it was mentioned in here that it can bring up random unrelated ones?
Thanks

84 at ECP anyway, bought one yesterday. Cheaper when they have discount codes available of course.
RE: hdi wont start! - tysonbully2k12 - 19-09-2013
cam sensor is easy, its beside the oil filler cap, held on by a Torx screw. just go to a scrap yard and get one from a 307 if your a cheap ass like me, peugeot are only about 25 quid id say.

hopefully, at least now if it does the same again i know what to do. thanks for all the help :-D and your guide of course :-D
RE: hdi wont start! - bigtone0777 - 19-09-2013
I'd be swapping the lift pump back out just to test it's ok and to keep as a spare if it is, or sell it as your a cheap ass lol
