2001 Peugeot 406 ST review from Brazil
"Very Good Car!! Cheap to run and to buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Speed sensor went of randomly. I had it replaced.
When engine is on idle the revs keep oscillating in a range of 0.100 RPM (every one say it is normal for this engine) (Not a problem, just annoying)
Rear suspension really noisy when going too bad roads, the trunk act as a sound box. (Not a problem, just annoying)
General comments?
Exceptional griping on bends!
Very “cozy” interior, feels very “Zen” on the road.
Packed with nice gadgets for a low the price.
Nice top speed for 138hp engine with auto gearbox (210 km/h real, 223 km/h on the dash)
Engine a bit thirsty 15 L/100km and road 10 L/100.
