      I think they are brilliant cars. Very reliable and if any age related issues arise a simple car to work on, parts are cheap and readily available.

      What does XD mean?
      As for what can go wrong... a lot, i speak from the experience of having a 406 spring break, it was an unexpected bill at the time.
      The lower spring perch is not wide enough to hold the spring up if it breaks, the spring if broken will pass on down below the perch pushed down by the weight of the car. The sharp edge of the spring can damage brake hoses, CV boots even the tyre. I would advise changing any 406 springs in pairs especially if they look a bit rusty. It is much cheaper to proactively fix just the springs as preventative maintenance than deal with the consequences of broken springs.

    How to get torque wrench details for suspential system in Peugeot 406

    • @peugeotCitroen2CV
      @peugeotCitroen2CV  10 месяцев назад

      Hi there
      A haynes manual is a great resource, or if you want get a service manual from ebay they tend to be an offline copy of servicebox so have the manufacturers official documents. Just note PSA used da Nm which is the torque value but you need to multiply it by 10
      So 3.5 da Nm is 35 Nm

    9:50 Those plastic caps are there to keep the top of the struts clean.

      Dirty upper struts was never really a problem noticed on any 406s without the covers, however they look tidy.

    Bonjour, quelle est la puissance de votre clé à choc ?

    • @peugeotCitroen2CV
      @peugeotCitroen2CV  3 года назад

      Salut, c'est un Milwaukee M18 CHIWF12-502X. Il a été acheté en avril 2017. Il a selon les spécifications du fabricantJusqu'à 1491Nm de couple de desserrage. Et jusqu'à 950Nm de toruqe de serrage. Je le recommanderais sans hésiter, mon oncle en obtient de temps en temps le prêt pour enlever les écrous de roue de ses tracteurs, c'est si bon, j'ai même cassé un boulon de roue rouillé en le retirant sur une 306. Ces dernières années, les nouvelles clés à chocs à entraînement 18v 1/2 pouces de milwaukee ont ajouté plus de fonctionnalités et ont éventuellement développé encore plus de couple. J'espère que ça t'as aidé

    What brand tools you
    use and recommend ?

    • @peugeotCitroen2CV
      @peugeotCitroen2CV  5 лет назад

      It depends on the application.
      For sockets i have Teng Tools 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 inch drive stuff, and some of the specailty sockets or bigger impact ones are sealey.
      The impact wrench used is a Milwaukee 18V 1/2" unit.
      Im not sure where you are from but in the UK and Ireland the shop Lidl has tools on specail offer from time to time, they are not professional grade tools but at the same time not cheap rubbish i have a few of their parkside and powerfix branded tools in the boot of the car for emergency uses

      When using impact wrenches you are supposed to use specific impact sockets. These are typically black, somewhat thicker than the normal sockets, and tend to be tougher than regular sockets so they do not shatter when used on an impact wrench.
      I have put regular sockets through the impact wrench, it is not adviced but when rushed for time the teng sockets can do it, just be sure to wear eye goggles, and if it does break there is no point asking about the warranty. The bigger torx/hex sockets have worked in the impact wrench with no issues although some common sense will say dont put a torx tx15 bit in a 1/2" impact wrench.

      I have one set of bergen ratcheting spanners i bought in 2012 which have been used quite a lot, although Bergen stuff does seem to be at the lower end of the quality scale, that and they do not seem to have any official company website, anyone trying to claim Bergen tools are German is talking manure.
      Halfords advanced tools are also good as they have a lifetime warranty.
