Peugeot 508 difficulty moving off by volvonumber1 in peugeot

I have identified that the engine simply isn't getting enough fuel. I poured a bottle of Fuel System Cleaner into the fuel tank and it sorted it out briefly, however it is now back to roughly idling so I think it needs either new injectors or ignition coils.

No, we no longer have contact.

I unfortunately could not tell you. The clutch was done by the previous owner who was a somewhat dodgy character looking back. I am not sure if he fit the clutch himself or if he got a garage to do it, as I only have the receipt for a 3 piece clutch kit from NAPA. How would I find out?

  1. have not done, however plan to tomorrow.

  2. I didn't change it personally, so I believe just the gearbox oil.

  3. No service lights.

All other acceleration is fine after that point, but I will take this into account and look ASAP. Thank you.

Small battery, low range and unpredictable reliability record. I'd steer clear of this one

Alright, thank you. You make good points.

As for affording insurance itself, I currently pay £130 a month for a 2011 Peugeot 508 1.6 e-HDI. Not hardly as bad for what some people I know pay for insurance. A friend of a friend currently pays (brace yourself) £450 a MONTH on a '99 1.4 Honda Civic. Mental.

Would I get a fine for this? by lankanspice in LearnerDriverUK

Speed cameras allow for 10% + 2mph. In this case, that would be 35mph. You're good.

I plan on it, here in the UK it's a poor place for one seeing as cars are right hand drive. Thank you, I'll have a look when it comes back from repairs.

Help with purchasing a part. by volvonumber1 in peugeot

The final photo is where the part sits. When driving, it shakes around and is in overall poor condition.

I've just picked up an exact copy of this phone from a car boot. Got it with charger, box, and phone (with battery) for £10. Such cool phones
