Hi all.I have used my Lexia/diagbox/pp2000 a few times to fix my 407.Have used it on my Dad`s 407 to give that car a once over.All without fault. Now,my eml has come on with de pollution fault(same as anti pollution on the 406),but the car is driving better than it has done,ie much better on acelera...

I went from a 406 estate(2003,hdi 110 remapped) to a 407 sw 3 months ago.I did`nt go looking for a 407,i just found it going very cheap.7 years old,2.2 hdi 170,GT spec with red leather,156k miles.It had a new dmf and clutch 5000 miles before i got it,so i dont have to worry about that!!!So far it ha...

Looks like the pics have expired,sorry.

The problem will be with the deadlocking side of things.It will fail the MOT if the tester cannot open the door,as mine failed last year.The door card comes off easy from the inside with the door shut.Then using a torch,locate the torx screw on the plastic housing,and using a screwdriver etc on the ...

Hi all.My new 407 Hdi 170 SW passed its mot fine.No issues,apart from a slight tear in 1 cv joint boot.But its not leaking grease,so all ok(for now).Got to the bottom of the lack of 170 bhp after a few miles of driving.Replaced both turbo solenoids,now running well,and feels like it has 170 bhp/280l...

I had a Xantia estate TD VSX before the 406.I was tempted with my Dads 1st 406,on a X reg but it was only a 90 bhp.After driving his 2003 estate 110 bhp a few times,i brought it off the company at 3 years old.By the time i brought it the price had gone up a fair bit,but it was 3 years old,56k miles,...

I`ll 2nd that with the juddering and abs light.The rings were broken on mine a few years ago with the same juddering.I replaced to whole cv joint as i got them for around £20 each.Easy to change once out of the hub.

After switching to a 407 2.2 hdi 170 6 speed from my 406 110 hdi,i can tell you that the 407 in 6th gear is about 400 rpm lower than the 406.Not much of a difference i thought.

2003/53 Hdi 110 Estate SE,Suspect piston ring gone.213k odd miles.I`ve owned the car since 2006 when i brought it off my dads company(his car for the first 3 years,56k)Moonstone blue,Black half leather electric interior(seats in mint condition),black wood trim with silver detailing,white 5 clock das...

Hi all,best £95 i`ve spent!!Full latest version,all plugs etc.15 codes on my 407 :oops: Going to change the turbo solenoid tomorrow,as thats what was disconnected and a screw blanking a pipe off on it when i brought it.Cleared all faults and same PO299 code again.Car drives fine for 20 miles,or 30 m...

213500 miles,2003/53 110(remapped)SE estate.And now she has died.Piston ring gone.
My"new" 407 2.2 hdi 170 SW GT 2008 is on 157000 miles.

My hdi 110 had maf issues last year.I unplugged it,it ran better.I brought a new one,it flew!!6 months later,it played up again.This time i spent £30 more on a VDO one.Untill the piston ring went last month,it was still good.I unplugged the maf on my new 407 2.2hdi 170.Car will start,but stalls,so t...

Hi all.I would like to buy the Lexia diagnostic kit.My dad who has a 2008 407 is going halfs on the cost.There are plenty on ebay,but i want one from a uk seller.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301700177360?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT But i notice they are listed with differ...
