General Discussion Area / sat navs

« on: 05 January 2023, 21:40:11 »

since having this french  car I have always had problems putting post codes into the satnav. apparently its something to do with the french only using 4 digits & advising using longitude/. latitude co-ordinates. i believe some owners have installed other satnav systems on theirs so going to look down that route

I think thats a DPF pressure sensor generic code, needs reading with a tool more customised to the Manufacturer to get the sub code and more detail

  sorry to all the code read UO29D  not 20

Just had a little chat with a PT contact here.

Apparently Shitroen use the very poor Conti NOx sensor setup which has a sensor and mini ECU located close together, he says the ECU is very pronce to water ingress and is likely the issue. Apparently they come as a matched pair (ECU and Sensor).

Being a NOx sensor it should easy enough to get at and change, the cost however might be a few hundred quid for the part

It's a straight four pot. Having Bank 2 pop up would be something of a surprise 

   ok ,  not as knowledgeable as you fellas but i will have a go at most things . i will take it & get the nox sensor checked out

General Discussion Area / hinge type screw cover

« on: 29 December 2022, 17:28:09 »

recently i purchased two new number plates as my old ones have the E.U  flag  on them  & sometime in 2023 I intend a trip to Enschede , Holland. this might seem trivial but now we have the Union Jack the screw holes on the L/H side correspond with Union flag which needs a red hinge screw cap,  all the main car parts supply companies are just offering white, yellow, black & blue. I could not get a red,  did say it is trivial

I see it’s the governments intention to cancel leave for the army. Why should they suffer for this
Circus of clowns mess in charge of the country?

mp,s  have given themselves over £17,000 in pay rises since 2013 & last year they never had one,  also i bet if we were able to gain access to their expense account claims they wouldn,t be bothered about fuel costs

The problem with career politicians of any hue, is they have scant knowledge of life outside of their ivory towers.

agreed , but just look at the pay rises since 2013 . over £ 17.000 I believe, but  one year they went without having one, poor sods , i could probably live off a mp,s  expenses.

i tried again yesterday to try & delete that U code. i do not know what I did different but pleased to say that I succeeded. I did google search the UO29D issue & came up with an article that stated that on some cars unless the code is deleted from the vehicles computer it may randomly return although the fault is not really there. also went on to say mainly french cars.
 Been contemplating  DPF delete , whats the OOF,s views on that

If your car is so fragile that you can't drive it in rain then I would be questioning if it is actually fit for purpose

  no its not that , the UO29D code has appeared again & it disappeared & on both occasions its been when Ive driven through quite deep water. as the nox position it will be submerged. just guessing really
