1998 Peugeot 306 Dturbo review from UK and Ireland
"Temperamental"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gearbox, (result from a bad service)
Seals,
Heater, (if you have a leaking heater - sell the car)
Door pins, (I am still surprised that a fault like that can happen)
Door handles, (keep on braking)
Airbag, (still not working)
Brakes,
and many many fittings (they brake if you try to touch them)
General comments?
I have this car for more than a year now and I must say the nature and the number of problems is like no other. Don’t get me wrong, this is a lovely vehicle, but the faults that I have encounter with this vehicle are like “mission impossible”.
The vehicle simply lacks quality. Combining that with the French Engineering and you experience a painful experience.
