Faults:

Load of minor faults including indicators coming on by themselves rear door jamming shut etc. Latest is a worn bush on the shock absorber assembly causing a clunk when you turn right. Told by dealer that there is a recall on this model and it needs a new camshaft. More inconvenience.

General Comments:

Car is comfortable roomy and rides well, cheap to run, but not as good on fuel as peugeot claim. Its just been slapped together though without much care or thought. Will never buy a car made in a French factory again.

Faults:

Main problem has been a "whining" or squeaking sound from the transmission. More noticeable in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. It has been to 2 seperate dealers about this. The first claimed Peugeot were aware of this and were looking into it and I would have to put up with it in the meantime. The second dealer (4 months later) said the same, but assured me that they should here something in the next few months as to a solution. It is very annoying and loud (even outside of the car - it sounds like a transit that's done 190k miles!!). I plan to change it in a few months, but have no idea how I am going to sell it sounding like that.

Had problem with exhaust rattle at about 2500rpm, but dealer fixed that and so far so good.

Various creaks, mainly from passenger seat, stereo housing and passenger sun visor (!!).

Stereo, although it sounds good, does not hold the radio stations stored in it.

General Comments:

If it wasn't for the transmission noise I would happily live with the other problems as they are fairly insignificant, but at the moment I am not happy with the car or the after-sales service.

I can't knock it for comfort and in some respects the build quality and quality of materials is very good.

Faults:

Last 2 weeks have seen the previously mentioned loss of electrics during driving - at times on the Motorway.

CD Multi-changer refuses to work sometimes.

General Comments:

After enjoying my 306 for 4 years I decided to move up to the 307. I am very impressed by the car in all aspects apart from some minor electronic niggles and its fuel economy.

Handling, ride, acceleration are all better than rival models that I have driven.

I have just brought the CC version and hope that it is up to the same standards as set by my Rapier.

Faults:

Radio lost stations.

Indicator didn't return.

Air box rattled.

Car vibrated at 2,500 RPM.

Radiator leaked.

Brakes juddered at high speed.

Front seats started to wear.

Rear brakes squeaked.

Car pulled to near side.

Rear doors dry of grease.

Sunroof dry of grease/rattled.

Lack of power/poor mpg.

Battery/fuse box covers loose.

General Comments:

Radio lost stations when going back to CD, dealer replaced unit, problem still present, display module on dash replaced, problem still present!

Air box rattled when engine is cold at 1,600 rpm, dealer tried wedging a McDonald's toy sword and old rubber washer to stop it, problem still present after 4 attempts to cure fault.

Vibration through car at 2,500 rpm, new electronic throttle module was fitted by dealer, problem not solved, new exhaust bracket was diagnosed as being required, problem almost cured, revised exhaust bracket fitted, problem cured.

Radiator started leaking at 4,000 miles, replacement radiator fitted by dealer, problem cured.

Brakes juddered when braking at higher speeds, new front disc's and pads fitted by dealer, problem cured.

Front seat covers started to fold on edges, new foam inserts fitted by dealer, problem still not cured.

Rear brakes squeaked from new, after 3 attempts by the dealer to put right, brakes were greased, fault almost cured.

Car started pulling to near side, dealer swapped front wheels, car still pulls sometimes.

Rear door checks dry of grease, dealer re-greased, problem cured.

Sunroof didn't open smoothly, and rattled when tilted, dealer greased runners, opens smoothly now, but still rattles when tilted.

Indicator stayed on and didn't return sometimes, 2 indicator stalk's have now been fitted, problem seems o.k.

Battery/fuse box covers were loose, dealer says "this is how there are supposed to be"!

Car has very poor acceleration since accelerator module was fitted and now kangaroo's in all gears when De-accelerating. Another accelerator module and throttle sensor was fitted, problem slightly better, but car still has poor acceleration and still kangaroo's.

When radiator was replaced wrong bushes were fitted which left radiator loose.

Dealership don't seem to be able to rectify problems at a first attempt and after owning the car for 1 year I feel very disappointed with the car and with the dealership.

Peugeot U.K. trouble shooter has looked at the car on 2 occasions. On the first occasion he acknowledged there was a performance related problem. After fitting more parts the car was slightly better. On the second occasion he said the car no longer had a fault, I disagreed and and still feel the car has a fault.

Where do I go from here??
