  1. There is no menu option to recalibrate the tyre pressures. Does this imply that it use an other system?
  2. It is a 2016 Peugeot 508SW Diesel 2.0L turbocharged vehicle. The system did not indicate any sensor activity; the error message states "Under Inflation Monitoring Fault." I am contemplating whether the monitoring unit might be defective, as I did not receive an error for any wheel. What is the probability of all four occurring simultaneously? Instead of speculating about their absence, given that the error indicates a potential issue with the module, I contemplated whether it would be more effective to simply replace one of them, assuming that would resolve the problem. I apologise for reiterating all the enquiries.
  3. Hello, I receive an Under Inflation Monitoring Fault while starting the vehicle. No errors are generated for any specific wheel. I took it to a nearby mechanic today, and he stated that he could not receive a signal from any of the wheels. He proposed replacing all four wheel sensors. What is the probability of all four sensors failing simultaneously? Is it possible that the primary wireless receiver device is the issue, or could it be another component? I would like to verify before proceeding with the payment of €320 plus labour costs. I also proposed that he simply replace it to determine if it functioned, and he expressed uncertainty regarding its efficacy with only one sensor. Could someone verify if it is operational with only a single sensor?
  4. I will disassemble the pump this weekend to inspect it and the sprocket cam for signs of wear. A new Pierberg pump, following multiple model revisions, has ostensibly resolved the issues associated with earlier versions; yet, I remain apprehensive about the potential, albeit unlikely, risk of foreign objects entering the engine and interfering with the timing chain.
  5. Thank you, DenishP4. I have not experienced much success with Haynes manuals, as they often lack sufficient detail on certain topics, but I will attempt to utilise them.
  6. I recently acquired a 1986 W124 300D, featuring a single previous owner and equipped with the OM 603.912 engine. The vacuum pump and timing chain should be inspected at 400,000 kilometres, notwithstanding its excellent performance. Regrettably, the owner did not maintain the service records, and considering the issues encountered with pump failures and dirt obstructing the timing chain, inspecting the pump is critical. Is there a suggested alternative to bulletproof materials? Has anyone installed an electric pump or alternator with a connected vacuum pump, similar to Japanese truck configurations? Could someone perhaps recommend a workshop handbook for this vehicle and engine? All online references are to American vehicles equipped with turbocharged engines. Thank you in advance.
  7. Indeed, a defective engine oil level sensor appears possible.
  8. I never thought I would see a day when everyone on a forum is pleased with a company that delivers vehicles in good condition... usually, the discussions revolve around scams, misleading practices, and so on.
  9. Hi all, Just to balance things out I bought a 2021 VW Passat estate from Glenside in July. I spoke to a guy named Daniel there who explained everything in plain english he even sent me a photo of the logbook and hpi report before i paid. I’d use them again without hesitation.
  10. The DPF has been removed and reprogrammed, and the EGR has been deactivated, sealed, and disconnected.
  11. The error is as follows... Hello everyone, I have been experiencing an intermittent issue with my 2008 Mini 1.6 HDi for an extended period. 3F6F air mass sensor, mass value implausible Any attempts I have made to rectify the situation have proven ineffective. I replaced the MAF sensor, but it made no difference. Turbo is new; all intercooler piping and vacuum lines have been inspected or replaced, and the intercooler appears to be in satisfactory condition. Replaced the boost solenoid Replaced the inlet manifold along with new seals. Installed a pre-owned throttle body and a new boost sensor. This error is entirely arbitrary. I can drive 1 mile before it enters limp mode, or 150 miles till it enters limp mode. Power cycling resolves the issue. The only aspect I have not investigated is the injector seals, as there is no evidence of black death surrounding the injectors. The vehicle has undergone DPF removal, EGR system deactivation, and has been reprogrammed and disconnected. The vehicle idles smoothly, produces minimal smoke, and delivers excellent fuel efficiency. Any suggestions? Thank you.
  12. Register the vehicle on Motorway or Carwow. It will provide insight into the trading values. This provides insight into the desired selling price. Best of luck
