Stabilizer Link: I think he suggested to replace the links since he might have noticed torn or damaged dust boots of the links.

Do you recommend the body repair services at Carmart Workshop Ratmalana? I consider the quality of work and honesty. They said that we do not need to pay the repair bills from private account of customers, they'll handle all insurance claims. If anybody has experience with Carmart body repair workshop please share your information or else where do you recommend for Peugeot accident repairs (body panels)?

Hi Guys, Can you recommend a place to do Peugeot AC related repairs? My AC cooler seems to be busted. refilled gas 2 times only lasts for 3 days maximum when driving with AC, when not driving and stay at home for 2 days cool become reduced or no cold air. when checking at AC places they said there is no visual sign of leaking but gas may be leaking somewhere else, culprit may be the AC cooler which is under the dashboard. Can anyone know a good reliable place to do the repair especially some one who specialized or having fair experience in Peugeot related ac works if I have to remove the dashboard to check the cooling evaporator? Please help. Thanks.

Hi Guys. pug guy came last Saturday. He is most specialized in mechanical works. but told that he'll bring a electrician with the computer to do the scan. unfortunately electrician did not come. I had to replace the front suspension link coz it gave very ugly noise when driving on rough roads. He brought the part cost around 5900 TRW brand. Don't know exactly the actual price. Then he started fixing com2000 headlight, signal switch. He brought a used comm unit. but it also not worked. seems he is not familiar with repairing electric items, since then I thought not to give him electric related works and finally I decided to get a brand new com2000 unit. Ideal auto (panchikawatta) priced 34500 for a brandnew comm unit but they don't have in stock. I searched web for pug parts and found Hari*chan*ra motors at Panchi, Abayasingharama road near tower hall. I talked to the shop owner and he said they have one unit available and quoted 35K. Anyhow I thought to buy the unit to get rid of this. I asked the shop owner to fix the unit and he gave me contact no. of a person who do pug repairs in Rajagiriya, Darmapala Place. He is decent guy and fixed the com unit and It worked well. and also he did the scan to find the "ANITIPOLLUTION FAULT" and "AIRBAG FAULT". antipollution fault gone after clearing the fault code. he said it's due to wiring harness loose connection in gas pedal and not a permanent issue . Airbag fault also gone at that time, but came again after I came home. He said it is nothing to worry there may be issue in wiring harness. He checked also for the head unit and found no power to the unit and have to check the wiring.

The guy will come tomorrow to do the scan. Thanks.

Sure. I will show this to carmart. Now I'm worrying due to a problem encountered yesterday. I drove the car about 15km suddenly engine malfunction light came up and display shows 'ANTIPOLLUTION FAULT'. Experienced loss of engine power after that. Then I called the carmart guy who recommended this car said It could be fixed by scanning and also sometimes fault go away according to my driving style. I doubt that expensive repair is on the way.

Engine compartment fusebox unit has been replaced by carmart. Owner said after that it is not functional. but cannot accept theres no fuse related to the head unit in engine fuse box.

I checked the fuse. There are two fuses 15A and 20A called 'audio equipment' in the manual where the fusebox located under the dashboard area. I checked them and fuses seem to be good. Is there any fuse related to head unit in engine compartment fuse box?

Thanks for the prompt reply pug306xsi. It is the whole head unit which is not working. Yes cd changer in the back of the car.

Thank you all guys for your kind replies. Yesterday princess came home PEUGEOT 406 HDi D9 2001(yom) 2L with all the documents of history from the date of purchase, original manual and maintenance book. This is totaly carmart maintained car. Owner used the vehicle awesomely. Very good interior condition compared to other pugs I have seen. Orginal paint and few negligible minor dents there on one of rear side door. Few more things I have to fix. 1. On-board display says air-bag fault and dash indicater flashes. 2. Signal/ head light switch not working properly. Even accidentally in slight touch on the switch flashes signals and not auto off when turning back to steering wheel position. (Previous owner said carmart quoted 40k to fix this by replacing the unit) 3. Radio is not functioning. (There is a bill replacing the fuse box) 4. When ignition on dash indicator shows empty oil. But oil is in correct level when checking with oil dipstick. If anyone familiar with these problems please advise. other than above mentioned car is awesome. Still not driven a lot until being familiar with manual one. Thanks you guys.

Thanks chan5. He said fully synthetic oil. Someone said using fully synthetic oil not good for Peugeot. Is it true?

Can anybody tell me how many kilometers can be driven 406 HDi after a service (Oil change)? Owner of the car said he is using synthetic oil.

Thanks you peugeot407 for all comments and replies. Now I set my mind to go for the diesel hdi.

This one clocked 101000 kms. This is repaired by carmart guy who knows the history of this car very well said there is no big issues but the price is little bit high and worth even for that price. But im worrying generally common belief that diesels give lot of troubles in maintaining.

Is it costly to repair the crank pulley fault? Owner said that he has replaced the pulley from the company.
