Re: bosshogg
hi every one
thanks for the greetings verry nice
the 4x4 was a mitsubishi 2.5 td pajero exceed lovley motor but the 27 to the gallon was killing my wallet, so towing my caravan was like having to have a loan from the bank to go any where.
i have borrowed my freinds p reg 406 petrol estate sometimes,until she had oil leak and seized the engine up not good
my inlaws knew some one with a 406 hdi estate went to have a look , and decided to buy one.

Didn't we do this a short while back and the sexy cut-downs are very much a thing of the past?

Yes the engine covers always snap off. They're not particularly expensive from the dealers, but they are on eBay relatively often aswell.

thanks mate will get stocked up .
she is quite to drive i thought it would be noisey for a desiel.
Re: bosshogg
Instead of using the original Peugeot mountings, go to a factors and buy 4 Renault exhaust bobbins (rubber mountings) and nuts and washers.Screw these into the holes on your car and hold the plastic engine cover down with the nuts and washers.....these will last a very long time, in fact i've never had to replace any that I converted.
