I am thinking of buying an OBD2 tool to read and write engine mapping from Peugeot and Citroen cars with EDC16. And my friend recommended me you to me. So I am wondering if you can recommend me a device to get the job done? Thank you very much.

We do not have a tool that especially designed to read and write engine mapping with Peugeot and Citroen cars. But we have two device that can do this. They are KTAG ECU programming tool and KESS V2 ECU tuning kit.

KTAG K-TAG is designed to meet our customers need and is known as inexpensive but reliable. It is compatiable with dozens of auto protocols, including SKODA BOSCH EDC16, CBMW BOSCH EDC16, PEUGEOT BOSCH EDC16 and CITROEN BOSCH EDC16C.

Different from KTAG, KESS V2 is a professional oriented tool. It supports all major brands and protocols you can find, including that for Peugeot and Citroen. As a professional tool, it supports more functions and languages than KTAG, and is of course more expensive than KTAG.

You can try one of them according to your need.

I suggest having a good tech work on it. That's a good engine but difficult to work on.

SOURCE: Recommended Engine Oil

You can keep using that oil with no problems. Most people don't really understand what the numbers on the bottle actually mean. There is a really long definition but here is the short version: The first number represents the pour point of the oil at freezing (@32 degrees F).
The second number represents the protection offered, compared to a "straight weight" oil eg: 30, 40, 50, at 212F degrees. Therefore, at freezing, your oil will pour (or flow) like a 20 weight oil, and give wear protection of a 50 weight oil at 212 degrees.
The quality of any oil is based upon the chemical makeup of the base oil, some have a high parafin content and are prone fo sludge formation, while better ones do not and tend to last longer. The ability to "change weights" with temperature is controlled by an additive "package" which is part of the product formula, as are other features such as anti foaming and the ability to keep particles in suspension.
If you stay with better oils such as Castrol, Quaker State, Valvoline etc. You will have no problems. (especially because in your area you don't go from sub zero to 100's).
Don't forget to add a quality filter to your oil changes. This is as important as your oil!!!
Good luck with your car!!!

Check with chevy a dealership service (phone call) , there are 2 different types if your car is an automatic. If your car is a standard , it could be gear lube , or even Automatic trans fluid.

Peugeot 206 randomly hesitates when accelerating

No VIN# told (sad) no country told sorry those cars are not the same all over earth ever. !
and it doesn't turn off>, huh?
IF the CEL is dead key on the lamp is dead or was hacked by the last seller, (common) key on is lamp self testing .and its only purpose that.and must GLOW.
but

lost your scan tool to see errors (DTC)
the CEL lamp is useless to any tech (if not glowing)
CEL is for 1 thing , smog passes.
a tech knows there can be 1000 errors and only some do make CEL glow, forget this silly lamp ! okay end it.
wiser is scan the PCM as any car misfires.


keeps hesitating
is misfiring or is lean burn. or flooding misfire.
top causes no a guess.
1:low fuel pressure. (a test) FPR bad.
2: TPS is bad or TWB
3: gee running spark plugs for 17 years? no why
4: engine compression way too low (any) a test.
5: EGR stuck open (if has one)
6: MAP dirty clean it.( so it is new sure) but gee the vacuum path to it must not be BLOCKED.
7: maf sensor dirty.
8:ect tells PCM engine hot (lies) and cold ,it's bad.
9: if engine does have MAF does it< and vacuum leaks are huge , the AFR goes lean and does as you said.
map only engines, vacuum leaks engine screams with full power,
some EFI run map for starting and idle only then kicks over to MAF for off idle to WOT.
best is can do , no such car in USA no books either.
buy the service manual and read what is there. and not there is the key fixing EFI problems. if are.

is car in EUROPE? if yes why fear this fact as 99^% do here. all that does is undermine correct answers

in Europe OBD2 is good 2002 up petrol engines.
scan it and save tons of Euro's
the tool is free,(math)
just one hour of shop labor saved makes it free !!!
called ROI ECON101
or the first part not guessed and useless to the problem.at hand. free, or worse the guessed part is wrong or bad and now 2 problems.
scan it and win.

Citroen c crosser anti pollution light

Anti pollution light, I never heard of a Check engine light being called that.
Read on please.

Hello
When the service engine soon light (Also called the check engine light or engine management light) is turned on this is to alert you to the fact that Powertrain Control Module (computer) has detected a failure somewhere in the systems it controls you may not feel any difference in the way the engine runs, this can be the transmission or the engine or emission system, there are fault codes set in the modules memory for these faults. What needs to happen now is to have the powertrain control module scanned with a special tool called an OBD2 electronic engine control scanner or a OBD2 code reader. Once the code(s) are read then you must perform the diagnostics for each code and make the appropriate repairs based on the findings of the diagnosis that was performed, this is called doing "Pinpoint" testing.

SUSUKI VITARA 2008 ENGINE

Hello, I think Suzuki offered Peugeot/Citroen Diesel engines in the earlier models but started offering Renault Diesel in 2006. I believe that the gas motors were all Suzuki.
