Re: Problem with your car?
Never thought of asking on here (Dont know why, I have done previously)
I have a problem (or more correctly, several).
same car as prev on thread, Pugot 306 1.4 LX Petrol.
Right, so here goes, there is a problem with fuel / air intake. Following problems are intermittent. car "hunts" revs sometimes stick high (even to 6K), cuts out (then has problems starting) and can now feel a cut out (poss misfire) sometimes when driving - so you get a jerking of the car/engine. (like when filling a diesel with petrol - but I HAVENT done this!!)
Have already replaced the coil pack, and spayed the stepper motor with carb cleaner in case this was sticky.
Only things to mind now are the injector unit or fuel rail. Both I beleive are quite big jobs.
I also have a "whine" from the front end. This is either clutch thrust bearing or the diff I think - whine rises and falls with the revs of the car. Whether this is just me (sort of pyscho-seimatic) or not, but I seem also to be struggling with gears??
Any help / tips. (Only one that springs to mind with me is a box of matches)Last edited by oscar; 18 December 2011, 20:28.I'm an official AAD Moderator and also a volunteer, here to help make the forum run smoothly.

Re: Problem with your car?
Well being an avid hater of all things Peugeot Oscar, I would tend to agree with the you on the "Box of Matches" solution.
I can't offer you any other tips, but if you don't want to be as drastic as setting fire to the car, then I would suggest visiting here - Peugeot Forums
I think you will source the answers to your car problems there.Comment

Re: Problem with your car?
Have you cleaned the idle control valve? Common problem on these and results in the hunting you describe whether engine is cold or hot.
Are you positive the whine is from that area as the power streering pump often creates similar symptoms and again is a common problem. Difficulty with the gears would back up your suggestion of the thrust bearing; as I'm sure you know these may or may not need replacing swiftly - some you can drive for thousands of miles as long as you can put up with the whine.Last edited by BBoo; 18 December 2011, 22:41.Comment

Re: Problem with your car?
Yep - Idle control valve / stepper motor is same thing. (or so I am led to believe) Disconnected the air filter right next to the valve and gave a good dose of card cleaner.Originally posted by BBoo View PostI'm an official AAD Moderator and also a volunteer, here to help make the forum run smoothly.

Re: Problem with your car?
Did you lubricate it with lard, 'Flora' or butter?Comment

Re: Problem with your car?
There are no leads .... no leads, no distributor - its all in one .... for a 306 is like a black rectangular box that fits over the spark plugs with ONE lead that plugs in (which cant be replaced as far as I am aware)Originally posted by pompeyfaith View PostI'm an official AAD Moderator and also a volunteer, here to help make the forum run smoothly.

Re: Problem with your car?
Right Oscar, we had a 106 that was the same, just one plug in sealed unit. Plus typical French design the plugs themselves were each in a deep recess. The standard service tool ( as specified in the workshop manual not the Haynes one either) was 100mm length of garden hose to grip the ceramic of the plug to restart the threads without crossing. And the darned things were on the back face of the engine to boot.
