1996 Peugeot 406 LX TD review from UK and Ireland
"Good car, shame about the backup"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air-conditioning ceased to work.
General comments?
With reference to the above fault, the main dealer could not tell me where the control unit for the air-con is.
This was after having the car in the garage for 9 hours! Neither could they tell me what was wrong with it!
As for performance, it is pretty quick and economical.
Comfort, on a par with a Xantia.
Peugeot really need to look at the dealer network, it is the worst I have ever had the misfortune to deal with.
