Peugeot 406 coupe hdi, mapped and lowered

[ozonehostile]

Had a couple of hours spare today so made a start at the ever growing "to do list"

Engine oil dropped out, refilled with Total 5w40 fully synth as it should be, new genuine oil filter

cabin air filter replaced, good job too as the old one was disgusting

Engine air filter replaced and all the crap emptied out from the bottom of the airbox

Took the majority of boost hoses off expecting to clean them but was nice to find them lovely and dry, only a slight glaze of oil in the bottom hose

Cleaned up battery clamps and terminals with some sandpaper

greased all the hinges, replaced a few bulbs



Still to do to get it mechanically sound:

Gear oil change (crunches into 4th when cold)
fuel filter change (two different types, typically I bought the wrong one)
droplinks front and rear
tie bars and track rod ends
rear wheel bearings
balljoints
rear stabilizer links
discs on all corners
brembo calipers and new pads
new shocks and springs
deFAP and deEGR
v6 Strut brace

should drive alright then

Looks sweet

Been toying with getting one of these for a daily.

Im glad that i took the plunge and bought one, Its just nice to have something different to a 306 for a change. Still got the gti6 as my fun car so best of both worlds really

Really hard to keep the interest there i found if your fun car and daily are both the same model lol

Im pretty sure there down the back of the engine and the egr bits are it the way of a couple of them. I maybe wrong though

You are right Frost, what a PITA!!!!!!
