Good day House!
My new 406, 2004 seem to consume a lot of fuel compared to the ones I've earlier used.
I was told to change nozzles n O2 censors which I did. No much improvement
Now am being advised to change the catalytic converter which can cause a fortune I was told

Please any further advice?? I'll appreciate

fabulousmann:
Hi guys I’m here again please help me. I want to change tyres for my 206 size is 175/65 R14 which should I go for tokunbo or new tyre, what brand and should I maintain the size or change it. Thanks in anticipation of your response.

temizeee:
depends on your budget
I use 206 too and i recently changed to tokunbo grade A tires and they are working perfectly
If you can afford new 🆕 then go for it
Use the same 14 inch rims too he get why
Go for Michelin,Hankook or Pirelli tires if you can afford them

fabulousmann:

temizeee:

I was offered 14 thousand naira per tire 🛞

Yes. You are right. Newer cars have too much wahala. The newer a car, the more electrics. The more electirc a car becomes, the less reliable and more complex to diagnose and fix. Days were gone when EFIs have less electronics. Then, a sensor could do a dual or various functions, which makes it easier to troubleshoot and cheaper to maintain. But now, more electronics are added to make EFIs more efficient, but suffers reliability on the other hand.

I did come accross a company (online) that repairs BSI unit. But i didnt save their contact (that i regret). It would have been the best solution than replacing the BSI unit with the engine ECU. I dont know if it could be possible to reprogram the newly purchased BSI unit to work with the engine ECU. But even if its possible, i doubt the possibility of finding a place it can be done in Nigeria. Have you tried Peugeot dealership/service centres? You never know. Also, have you asked the question or start a thread in Aussiefrogs forum on this your BSI issue?Trust me, you will get all you need to know about BSI in Aussiefrogs. There are so many Puegeot gurus there.

The truth is, I dont really know much or have much information on hw to troubleshoot BSI issues. Why? Because my 2 Lions are non-BSI. But whenever i replace my 605 v6 with phase II 406 v6, the BSI issues wont be alien to me anymore. I love such challenges and i do overcome them via DIY, as they come.

About the mileage issue, since some Nigerian car dealers tamper with vehicle mileage before selling, then that shouldnt be a problem to you. you just need to find one of them that can roll back yours for you. I dont know how they do it.

But seriously, why would a car not not have an external boot opener? Why should i depend on electric to open my car trunk? So that means if my car battery drains completely, i cant have access to the boot? Why didnt they also do the same with the bonnet, since they believe electrics are more reliable than mechanicals? Of course,if the car battery drains flat too, one wont be able to open the bonnet to even replace the dead battery. This thing with newer cars! So unrelable.

Rewire appears to have fried your ECU.

Replace ECU and incompetent rewire.

Elsueno:


Fuvk!!! But bros dis ur 'rewire' na Peugeot rewire NOT COROLLA one I HOPE.

You should try & check d fuses first, cause if I remember correctly, a certain 10 Amp fuse blows when u a sparks occurs during either fixing wires or changing bulbs( I sooo hope it's dis problem sha, cause d fuse na just 200 naira)


Thanks. I guess he is a corolla rewire.

Ot was an honest mistake on my part. Is the ECU the same as brainbox or BSI?

Second, make sure ur rewire actually fix d phone & not tapped power from anywhere( if he did, return to default & check why horn failed( check fuses first, then horn wires).

Third, probably touched d crank position sensor( check connection & fix it)

All above are easy to do in less than 30 minutes.

Last & unfortunate 😞 thing is, rewire probably damaged ur ECU, in dat case keep 30-40k ready. Good luck

luvablesam:


Thanks. Where is the ECU located what is the street name?

I am not a professional

aieromon:


Look for a Peugeot tech. The street name is brainbox.

luvablesam:


I have looked everywhere here. I can't seem to get a brainbox here.

Where can i get?

Elsueno:


Just visit a Peugeot garage, Peugeot car parts seller or Peugeot mechanic. They would point u in d right direction. I won't lie to 2 u though, ur pocket go feel am, cause d ecu, bsi & keys would probably have to be bought from d same car OR buy ECU alone & get it reprogrammed for ur car.

Rewires are a menace, sorry bros
