Anyone got a Peugeot 406 lx Auto?

(1/2) > >>

Mutz:
Just bought one and there is a couple of things i need to know; mines the estate version 97/98.

1) there is a switch to the passenger side of the gear stick with a snow flake one end and a "s" at the other; doesnt put a light on,on the dash and no idea what its for.

2)  how does the cruise control work as never had it before; i know what its for just dont know how to set it.

3) is there any particular problems to watch for on these, apart from they are French?

Ive already been ribbed about buying it, but it was bought for my dogs, as GSD can no longer manage to get in and out of a 4x4.

Actually a nice car to drive :oops:

They are brilliant cars

1) the switch it a snow/Ice switch, for driving in snow or ice obbviously ;)

2) are there a set of buttons on the steering wheel or a lever on the steering column?? either way there is a set one will switch the Cruise on, one will set the speed (may have a + / - aswell as the set button) , and one will reset it after the clutch or brake are operated or switch it off after you have finished.

you will need to play with it for a while and get to used to it

3) what engine is in it?? get the cambelt and waterpump changed ASAP, fuses and Fuel pumps are usually commn on the Diesels but the Petrols are usually OK
