    Knock sensor frequency

    It's a bit taller, the screw that is replaced is a H8x35mm one with 1.25mm threads and 8.8 grade.

    I was watching yesterday and it fills the front first then the rear chamber slowly fills on the reservoir , I think it became a problem when the rear filled right up , good idea on leaving the bottle empty . All hubs torqued up rears 215 nm , fronts 260nm , got a bigger torque wrench up to 350nm was cheap on ebay ,put a battery on plus terminal won't clamp up tight so put a thin piece of copper in for now and found the old screw on post for the negative , sure I have a new one somewhere as its a bit corroded. Key in and plugs out the all happens in position 3 is interior lights go out , put a second big battery on and still not a movement nor a sound of a relay clicking , the interior lights going out as well as dash lights suggests to me the new starter is faulty ?, I know the copper pin was bent as it had been looked to have been dropped on it before I got it . If it was the plug of doom the dash lights wouldn't be going out when pos 3 on the key I'm thinking just nothing would happen. Indicators only work on right side , sidelights don't work but I don't have a dip dim resitor fitted yet , press the brake pedal interior light goes out lol I think there are a few electrical issues . On a more positive note I took 2 damaged sunroof handles apart and made one decent one

    @petert Weren't these just regular-ish M8 standoffs like in the picture? I haven't seen one in ages irl though, so I can't remember. If it looks like the one on the right I could find a similar DAF partnumber.

    Ah man I once had similar with a pressure bleeder, I now never put fluid in the extra bottle so it doesn't self feed, that way it can't blast brake fluid everywhere, you have to keep an eye on the level and top up instead.

    I may have a few, or know where to find one. Every 1.9L Mi16 sold in Australia had one. I can't look until after 16 Dec however. I used one recently on a turbo 8V I built. Easy enough to make one too, if you have a lathe.

    Knock sensor frequency

    08 0132 32 01 SCREW COLUMN - INJECTION XU9J4 UP TO 10/1990 0132 34 01 - INJECTION XU9J4 SINCE 10/1990 It should fit just the same on a XU5 block... if you can get your hands on one. It wasn't even used on all XU9J4, only those with 55 pin ECU so all cat engines and also non cat since MY 91.

    Thanks Tom I used 3 washers, more than id like , to make it clear will see how to goes . Coolant filled , oil in , brakes bled today with pressure bleeder and pressurised it to 10 psi first to check for cap leakage before filling bottle , all was going fine did the rears then fronts them went to do backs again and cap will spilling out brake fluid . Got the hose out and washed it off as it was dripping down the inner wing . Disaster 1 lol Taking car of the axle stands at the front rear still on ramps , I had a block of wood jamming the rear wheels but took it to use as a spacer to lift car and forgot and as I let it down it rolled forward down the ramps jamming the jack against the floor ,, got it held back before the car hit the door luckily .Disaster 2 . Have knocked rear floor back down again and its not too bad few cracks in paint . Temp sensor I put in new rad with new cooper washer is leaking , one of those days lol Might try a fibre washer as I don't want to tighten it anymore incase I bust the rad .

    Belated thanks to PhilNW, I'm only a month late - don't be mad!
  12. Hi from Down Under(New Zealand), I have a hail damaged 32 year old hood on my 205 CTi Cabriolet that needs replacement. I have bought a replacement from UK but would appreciate ADVICE ON HOW TO REMOVE THE 3 LAYERED HOOD. This car was stored outside for 6 years so the sterl frame is showing some wear & rust where paint rubbed away. I intend to sane away any rust, acid etch, etch price & top coat the frame to ensure easy, reliable operation. I am fortunate as I I have 2 x CTI, one a 1.6 5speed & this 1.9 Auto+ p/st with electric raise & lower operation(MY 1992) ex Japan import.

    Brake upgrade

    Hi Peter, What are the callipers in your set up originally used on? I think that may be the direction that I’ll take.

    Can't open passenger door

    Recently been through the same thing. As the car was at Miles for a service / MOT anyway he sorted it for me - as described above he got the door open and gave the mechanism a fair bit of lubrication and it is now working perfectly fine again. I have, as a safeguard in case it happens again or fails completely, now purchased a very good condition spare handle incase it ever needs to be replaced alongside a spare set of latches as the passenger one of those was also sticking slightly - so spares to futureproof the car.

    Sunroof valve

    First you need to search the part number on google: "842406" or "8424-06" or "8424.06" with peugeot to narrow the search. Doing so you will find a seller on ebay that has two of them for sale: https://www.ebay.fr/itm/135380109662?_trksid=p2332490.c101224.m-1

    Sunroof valve

    You are very unlikely to get a new one so secondhand only.

    Hello ? Anyone on here ?

    I’d use an XU9J4Z #3 cap bolt.

    As Baptiste said . Interesting to see they've adapted the casting for the XU7.
  20. A gti6 inlet manifold and throttle body can be made to fit quite easily, and is a worthwhile upgrade. Plus a newer more reliable throttle body. I had an MI throttle body spindle snap like the one pictured and end a TrackDay early, almost ruined an engine - luckily found the screw in the inlet manifold!

    Knock sensor frequency

    Thijs is referring to the XU9J4 knock sensor postion on a special bolt (8) on the the 3rd bearing cap: What you have here is more like the XU7JP4 setup but the XU5 block lacks the proper mounting point, they have it closer to the headblot thread:

    Found a picture of the engine, circled where the map sensor is mounted. @Thijs_Rallye is this where you meant?
