Any peugeot mechanics/specialists on here?

Sat Mar 02, 2013 4:06 pm

I have a peugeot 207 that is driving me mad. It is struggling in low gear or when idleing. 3 garages, a friends diagnostics reader and peugeot themselves cant find any fault. Any help or advice would be gratefully recieved. Now back to find a decent link for the second half, c'mon you bluebirds!

try unplugging the maf sensor ( air flow meter ) its only a plug in clip on the pipe going to the air filter box.
If it runs better unplugged then its the maf sensor if its still the same when you drive it just plug it back in :thumbright:

He asked tidy question why say anything?
Is your car so good it gives you the right to have a go at other peoples cars? :roll:

I had a friend with a similar issue, after the dealer upgraded the CPU software the issues disappeared. I know nothing about cars and this is just hear say, but worth a look. She was being quoted for new a engine until they stumbled on the fix.
