Therefore, when a node fails, many owners do not bother with finding and installing a new catalyst but abolish it altogether. The vehicles are made by professionals and they are designed to be one complete part. However, when one part is not operating at its fullest, some measurements should be taken. There are neverending debates on whether it's good or bad to remove the catalytic converter.
Many drivers can find a lot of positive sides, and they are ensured that removing the catalyst will affect the car in a positive way only. However, they are sorely mistaken. First of all, operating a vehicle that does not have a catalytic converter installed is pretty much illegal. But the main issue is connected with electronics.
Therefore, after removing the catalyst, a driver either has to reprogram the entire unit, or use an emulator that will fake the presence of the catalyst. A used device can be a good option for many. Finding a good recycling company at the local place, any scrap yard, or online search can bring only a positive impact.
Current Peugeot catalytic converter recycling prices bring great options for saving some money or even making a profit on used Peugeot catalytic converters. Take some time and search for good online deals. There are pretty much no downsides in doing so. What does catalytic converter do? Platinum, rhodium, palladium and even gold can act as a perfect catalysts in the catalytic converter.
Without them, the process would have been impossible. The entire filling of the catalytic converter looks like a layer of precious metals deposited on a ceramic honeycomb. And the catalytic converter is not only a unit, but also housing, and lambda sensors, and a heat insulator casing.
It is the ceramic block that is the catalytic converter of the reaction, and not the entire item assembly that is "dusting" into the cylinders, so they usually talk about removing the catalytic converter, sometimes replacing it with other parts. The first catalytic converter was installed back in But there were no big problems from them then, and until recently no one could have thought that the catalytic converter could cause scuffing and oil scrapes.
The catalytic converter was located far from the cylinder block, in the exhaust system somewhere under the bottom. Modern motorists have an excellent opportunity to get rid of a faulty catalytic converter when and where they want to do it. Usually, there are plenty of car service stations that are ready to give some information on purchasing old catalysts. Coilpack faults are rare on this engine. Thank Screwloose for reply.
I was being a smart-a and picked out the wrong letters - sheer ignorance. Can't check plug make due to imminent removal of self from vicinity by better half, will do so when allowed. At the time nothing showed on the garage owner's hand-held device but by chance a man from Peugeot was there with software on his laptop which produced a number and a diagnosis which I can't recall; this number was fed into the garage's larger computer and produced a part number for the coil pack.
There was a definite smell of roast plastic about one end of the old coil pack when removed. In case the sudden appearance of "a man from Peugeot" sounds fishy I trust the garage owner.
However I have just started the car to check the mileage whereupon it gave three beeps and the fault indications disappeared but now the trip mileage won't clear! So now I don't know where I am. Probably ought to change the plugs as a matter of course, what make do you recommend please? I always fit dealer's plugs - who need to take compatibility risks with cars these days.
P is fuel-pump relay related. Doesn't quite fit your fault - although it's a common PSA group code. If the light has been back on post-coilpack replacement; then having the code[s] re-read is you next move. Thank you for that. We'll see what happens next. Mon 21 Dec 03 2. For interested parties! A year later and still have this, I was going to say problem but as we now ignore it - no problem! It only appears if the engine is allowed to idle for 20 seconds plus, when starting from cold.
If you take off straight away no problem. If not, every sign of the engine choking itself, then sundry beeps, engine fault light on, messages about cat failure etc. This will continue to the end of the journey however long or short, then clears until the next cold start again unless you don't allow the engine to idle.
I recently took it in for a service and mentioned this and they ran a diagnostic and said there was nothing wrong with it! I couldn't seem to get across to them that the engine needed a cold start. Then the bloke in reception said in an off hand way that someone thought it might be a sticky tappet. This rang a bell, I am sure I read somewhere that you could fit tappets from another engine that were slightltly smaller.
I doubt I shall ever do anything about it but if anyone has come across this solution and can point me in the right direction it might stir me into action! And how major an operation would changing tappets be on this engine?
I can't see how changing the tappets could help. They do not come in variable sizes. Pistons do but not valves and associated top engine parts. Standing by for correction by the learned ones! Thu 24 Dec 03 2. Thanks for response. I think the logic is that as the engine behaves as if severely choked, possibly caused by a sticking tappet holding an inlet valve open until things warm up a little.
By which time the cat is befouled and and all warning systems go into overdrive. Some one discovered how? It may be that as the fault is not reported in later models as far as I know that if this is the problem and solution, tappets for a later model might do the job.
But I cannot remember where I read this and was hoping that if someone could enlighten me and also inform me how difficult the job might be to change them.
