Hi there

Need photos of that Coupe!

Why not make yourself a page on the Members Cars section of our Wiki - http://www.pug406.com/wiki/index.php/Ca ... mbers_Cars

Exterior temp sensor is knackered, so the in-dash display reads "--".

That's it, really.

According to the table on this page - http://www.pug406.com/wiki/index.php/Peugeot_406 - the RFR produces more Horsepower than the RFV. The table was somewhat shamelessly "borrowed" from Wikipedia, though I adapted the links on our "borrowed" version to point to the articles on our Wiki. I have no w...

Took a reasonable snap of my engine this morning; just not sure what type it is

Mine is the 1.8l 16v petrol-engined 1999-registered D9, so I'm not sure if mine is an EW7 J4 - 1.8 16V or an XU7 JP4 - 1.8 16V. If someone can tell me which, I'll add my photos to the relevant page.

Captain Jack - when you replace the sound system in your ride, would you mind taking photos and making a How-To for the wiki?

Sorry Steve - didn't mean to worry you :oops: I spotted you'd made the article on bleeding the cooling system as a category. I've made the changes for you, and created a "Cooling" subcategory of the "Cooling, Heating and Ventilation" category you made. I also fixed a couple of weird bits of formatti...

I don't know what kind of engine is in mine - it's either :

EW7 J4 - 1.8 16V

or

XU7 JP4 - 1.8 16V

But I'll go and take a photo of it some time this week - need to get some photos of my 406 now that I've got my 307 Rapier alloys on it.

Cheers
Graeme

Nice set of wheels, Captain!

Are those 5-stud alloys? I thought the 406 would only take 4-stud wheels.

Also - why not make yourself a members page on the new Wiki? Instructions are at http://www.pug406.com/wiki/index.php/Ca ... mbers_Cars

I've just setup a quick page for this, feel free to add your own info in, or change it round, anything you like really! Nutski, I just fixed that page up for you so that the category system is a bit more structured, and I've put a quick "How To" in on the "Members Cars" category. Hope you don't mind!

Hi there - not sure what anyone else thinks about this, but I don't see the harm in it. Thanks for your contribution :) In any case, I've added the "Knowledge Base", "Engines", and "Petrol" categories to your article, so that it is listed in the Knowledge Base section under the correct sub-category ...

Pretty much perfect - the "Stub" template says "you can help Wikipedia by expanding it" though (think they'll notice? :mrgreen:) I don't know anything about templates, or how easy it would be to change that one so it says "our site" or "the Peugeot 406 Wiki" or something other than Wikipedia. A mino...

Steve, Don't worry about it - I can fix any broken content, and anyway, WikiMedia automatically catalogues changes - so I can compare changes and revert any errant changes as needed :) Well done; you've added that in just the right way. You can add sub-categories in much the same way as you did the ...

Steve - give it a go

I'm a computer tech, so I probably make it sound harder than it is. Really

If you still don't manage it, then why not post here what you want to post there, and I'll put it in for you?

How do I add a "steering and suspension" catagory? On the Main Page, click the "Edit" link at the top right. Scroll down the editor window until you see "*[[:Category:Wheels|Wheels]]" Copy that line and paste it on the line above that (as "S" is alphabetically before "W" :cheesy:), and replace both...

Nutski - any chance of "borrowing" Wikipedia's "Stub" template? Oh, and their "Catdiffuse" template? :cheesy: I'm getting the hang of the Category system; note the "Electronics" category, with the "In-Car Audio" subcategory, which has a "Head Units" article in it. More simple than I thought, which i...
