2001 Peugeot 307 HDI review from UK and Ireland
"Peugeot ownership? Never again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Horn rarely works.
Anti pollution system fault light comes on intermittently and results in a sudden loss of power.
Indicators change direction without prompting.
Acceleration sluggish.
General comments?
Advised my Peugeot dealer of the anti-pollution warning and he charged me £50.00 to check the car, only to advise that a repair would cost approx £3500.00 for a full replacement of the fuel system. Something about a breakdown of the high pressure fuel pump resulting in metal fragments contaminating the whole system.
I drove the car away as quickly as it would allow. Since the weather has improved and become a little warmer, the fault has vanished. I've lost all confidence in the car and I'm looking to part-exchange as soon as possible.
