Had warning light come on check oil, Oil fine possibly faulty sensor. Anyone know where to buy and how to fix or is it a garage thing
Hi, you can get this sensor in any car parts shop, if they don't have one they can order, it will be a bit cheaper than dealer. Depending on engine type and size the sensor is situated in different places. With a bit more information from Auto Data or Google you should be able to identify where. Changing is easy and does not require garage.
SOURCE: Peogeot 307 suspected faulty reversing light switch.
The reverse light switch is located on the transmission housing which is behind/under the air filter housing/battery on the 2.0 litre D turbo model. To replace it you will need to remove the top of the air filter housing and the filter (2 screws plus release the air intake pipe connected to it by a large jubillee clip, also unclip a couple of cables). To remove the switch disconnect the cable clipped to it. You will need a deep 22mm socket and a universal/flexible coupling to unscrew the switch (as access is poor unless you remove the battery compartment/air filter housing).
SOURCE: Oil pressure sensor light comes on and oil level is fine
This is probably an oil pressure sensor problem. Randomly going from 0 to over 130 is means the sensor is putting out out of range signals. Mine would even read --- at times. I told the mechanic to not spend any time troubleshooting just change the sensor. $121 including parts, labor and tax. The gage should read about 70 psi plus or minus several psi, and move up a PSI or two as you rev up the engine. It took him about 10 minutes to change it, once he got the part. There would have been a diagnostic charge of about $50, had I not been sure.
SOURCE: WHAT Motor Engine Oil Recommendation for Peugeot
10w40 semi synthetic would be your best bet
SOURCE: 2005 Audi A4 2.0T oil sensor warning
These engines had an issue with the oil pick up sceen getting clogged this may be the case. If so the oil pan would have to come off and either replace or clean the screen. It would also be recomended to flush the oil system with an oil flush kit. BG makes an additive that works pretty good.
SOURCE: "when do i change the cam belt on a peugeot 307 sw diesel"
usually you should do it for peugeot diesel at 122000 miles along with water pump and the tensioner roller that runs under the cambelt too. But to be on the safe side do it at 100000 and save the fortune.
It took me (DIY job) about 6-8 hours as i wanted to save 450 pounds.
