Antifreeze / Coolant replacement on a Peugeot 407 SW 2.0HDI

- Hello everyone today I have made a video of me replacing a antifreeze/coolant in my Peugeot 407 2.0HDi with 6 speed manual gearbox. I hope some of you will find this video use full. Looking forward to your comments especially on a suggestion if you have managed to access and remove a cylinder block drain plug, as I have found it to be extremely difficult. In this video I have used 50/50 coolant concentrate/deionised water. you should read your coolant concentrate back label to see what mixture is required for you there you live according to what temperatures you get in a winter. Please ensure your video setting is set to max as a video is filmed in full HD.
That was probably the clearest, easiest to understand and comprehensive auto maintenance videos I have seen. Well done and thank you bi have a 2.7 hdi and will see if I can find the 2 bleeder valves and do the job myself, as it’s due.
Hi mate first of all thank you for positive feedback. I am not sure if a 2.7 is gonna be similar as I have never had one so can't really tell but the procedure should be similar.
I will check but everything I can see under bonnet and below looks the same except the size of the motor so I would be surprised if it is not. Thanks again from Australia.
Splendid show, sir and great detail with bleeders and header etc! 👌🏻
As you said, be careful not to lose the little screw cap of the heater hose/thermostat housing. I did exactly that, while being alone. The quickest solution in order not to lose the whole amount of coolant is to screw on the plastic caps from the tires. Actually, I have seen cars fitted with them driving for years.
Great idea mate
That’s could be a lifesaving tip for fat fingers like me!
What a fantastic tutorial. Thanks so much.
Thank you mate.
Thanks mate, big help. Mine did not have the bleed point at the thermostat it had a hose running straight back to the expansion tank so Only one cap to lose lol. Just did my second timing belt using your other guide really good stuff thanks
Thnk you mate apreaciate a good feedback, glad it helped
Excellent video thank you.
I'll save this job for the spring time, as I mentioned before, living in the wildlands on the Anglo-Scottish borders I don't want to risk messing with the coolant in the winter, esp since the bottom hose clip looks as rusty as yours !.
The coolant in my 407 looks like river water but it has survived -7°c nights so hopefully it will be ok until the warmer weather and I'll fire it out, following this routine.
Thank you mate. Sounds good to me, as you could see my coolant was looking like a dirty river water too. Glad I have changed it.
If it looks like dirty river water, you NEED to change it. The coolant is no longer effective at preventing rust!
@@khalidacosta7133 it's difficult to do any DIY work with high winds and low temperatures.!
Those two bottom radiator hose clips on mine are severely corroded too. I think everyone should replace those, it's a potential failure at some point! However I would advise to use the spring clips as OEM rather than worm drive hose clamps. Those clamps don't auto-adjust to heat/cooling and natural setting of the rubber and can sometimes leak over time. Finally, often the "leak" point is the radiator cap itself, it's a pressure release valve and the seals fail over time. A few quid on ebay solves the problem.
I might need to get a new claps for all the hoses at some point. Hoses itself seem to be good. Gonna look in to new expansion tank cap
You know where to buy that clip and which size it is? regards
Just I let you know I have upgraded from my 407sw 2.0 hdi 136, I am now happy owner of 2.7 hdi SW which has big upgrade ......a manual transmission, found the car in Italy at good price, man told me it cost him more than 2,000 € for the change, very very happy with it, I put more than 2,000km in 3 weeks, fuel is not so good, but engine noise is beautiful, I go to Peugeot dealer because rear hatch switch did not function, 59€ for micro switch, but man at dealer was interested very much, never he sees a conversion before. I wish I could show picture 😊
This sounds really cool i am sure here in uk a lot of people buy a coupe for 2.7engine and you got it in a sw its really cool. Its must be really fast and cool to drive. Well done mate you have something very special there.
You need to turn the heater on Full to get all the air out of the compartment heater !
عمل جيد جدا شكرا على الاتقان عندي نفس المحرك في بيجو 308 يجب عليا تغير الماء بهده الطريقة الجميلة كثيرا من الجزائر احبك مرة أخرى
2.0HDI فهي محركات لطيفة. في 308 يجب أن يشعر المزيد من السلطة الكامل كما 308 ربما الأوزان أقل من ذلك الحين 407. أود أن أضع هذا المحرك يوم واحد في لبيجو 107 أو 207. سيكون ذلك ممتعا جدا
if you try to protect yourself put someting from bout sides of the rear tire if the had break faill it can roll foward aswell. Oweral job well done.
Thank you mate.
Was expecting this one for a while!
Well sorry it took a while. Hope you will find it use full.
hi and thank you more video on 407 2.0 hdi please
I have been waiting for this one
Well I hope you will find it use full.
Great explanation thanks
great tutorial, thank you sir
Thank you mate.
thank you very much buddy, love your videos

Again...nice video mate.your friend from romania
Thank you my friend.
I'm going to do this job soon mate.
Best time to do it then you replace cambelt and water pump. But if it has to be done then it has to be done
The explanation and video was top notch. Meanwhile I haven’t been able to drive my automatic Peogeot 407 sw because of overheating. I use only water instead of coolants. The radiator have been changed to double cell. It has bled multiple times but it still overheats. The water boils or bubbles while I drive and flows out through the expansion tank cover even when it tight. I need help on where to look out for.
I think becouse its just water and not a coolant it boils and thats why it goes out of the expansion tank. It has to be coolant premixed or coolant concentrate mixed with dionised water. I think normal water can damage this system regardless of radiator
Also thermostat might be faulty
Muito bom informação obrigado
Hello, first of all thank you for the video, very good. My doubt, taking advantage of the replacement of the timing belt, when changing the water pump, does the engine completely empty of water? Or is it only possible to change the coolant using this procedure?
If you use method above I believe a very small amount of coolant is indeed still be left inside a system after draining. Then you change a cambelt and waterpump you can drain every drop of system. In other words then you change water pump you normally change coolant as its a best option to empty system. This method in this video drains probably 90% of coolant and water pump 100%
@@Mad4FrenchCars Perfect, thank you so much again!
Hello my friend. Question: where is located the dehidratator filter in Peugeot 407 hdi 2.0 136 FAP year 2004? And what is the number of part? Code OEM. Thanks my friend. Very good videos , I fixed all in my car with your help. Thanks again for your extraordinary job!!
عمل رائع ..أحب عملك ..شكرا لك كثيرا
شكرا يا صديقي، أنا سعيد لأنك تحب ذلك. هذا العام سأحاول أن تجعل الكثير من أشرطة الفيديو.
@@Mad4FrenchCars great vid mate just found you i have a 2.8 coupe diesel please do a vid on the heater system mine barely gets warm !!🤦♂️
@@andrewstratford4753 you might have a broken flaps inside a heater unit.
@@Mad4FrenchCars thanks for the reply is it expensive to get repaired?
@@andrewstratford4753 If it's a heater flaps I am not sure if anyone repairs them I would join a Facebook group called Peugeot 407 UK a lot of people there fixed theyr own heater flaps and they would be able to advise much better. Also check other things aswell such as a coolant level in a coolant system as low coolant can couse a car to stop blowing how air. What exactly happens with your car does it show a proper heat on a gauges after driving a car? Is it just a problem with no hot air blowing from the heater unit to cabin?
Great video. Can you record AC condenser replacement on Peugeot 407?
I will in a near future mate
@@Mad4FrenchCars Thanks, pal.
hey bro wanna ask u for help
i remove my car speakers and buy new so i cut the adapters and now i dont know wich wire is positive White one or Other ?? i connected like white is negative but i wanna be sure. Thx
مرحبا عمل رائع لدي سيارة بيجو 407 كوبيه نفس لون المياه لديك لقد اعتقدت انها تخلط الزيت بالماء
My header tank has two hoses. Why would that be?
I wonder if the oil temp gauge is not working properly on my car, I have a petrol V6 coupe and the oil temp barely moves on a 15km drive when the coolant has been stuck on 90 for a long time. I understand the thermostat helps a lot and the engine is quite large but still I would expect the oil to warm up quicker than the coolant? Maybe the gauge is just a bit slow because the reading is fine on a long drive
Anyway I need to do a coolant change on mine too since I have no idea how old it is. Appreciate the video, it's exactly what I was planning but it's good to double check so I'm not missing anything obvious
Gauge can be a bit stuck a bit or a oil temperature sensor might soon need replacement.
@@Mad4FrenchCars I guess. Found out the coupe has both hoses on the top of the rad and it just has a screw you open on the bottom of the rad to drain it, much easier and slighly less messy. But god the fluid smells bad, definitely due for a change. Smells about as bad as manual transmission oil which is to say god awful. Hopefully the stench will come off my fingers soon
It's like completely black when it's sitting in the bottom of the vat that I used
@@waldevv sounds like it really needs a change mate well done for investigating it.
👍❤️
can i ask something diferent 😊 i change factory speakers on 407 demaged with new 4 speakers. Witch wire is positive on door panel White or Colored ?
i cut the factory conector becose of new spekers
Hi mate i have done same thing aswell but can not remember now. Sorry i couldnt help mate. Only thing i can think of try to test with voltameter
Voltameter should indicated possitive and negative
Have you ever changed a AC condenser on a 407 sw 1.6 HDI ? Would really appreciate a video!!
Hi mate a condenser on 1.6hdi and 2.0hdi is same. You need to remove a coolant radiator or atleast move it towards the engine to access it. Ac gas pipes going to condenser can be a pain to remove from condenser side you have one pipe secured by 10mm nut in a front of condenser and one in a back. I will make a video in a future
Is the ventilation of the installation done through the two valves that you have opened and waited until the water flows through them
Ya you could say that. Its how you air a system out
Hi , I have pugeot 407 2.0 hdi 2009 model and I just.got the engine mount changed last week and now I'm having the coolent leak at the driver side ...when I remove the air filter , I can see the leak ...but I don't know exact name of the place and part to identify the part and order a replacement from somewhere , can you help to let me know what exactly is this part called ...
I am not sure if your coolant leak has anything to do with a replacement of engine mount. If you remove ait intake box and you can see leak then it could be a thermostat housing or pipes I am not sure wich one you are talking about
Hello friend
I just want to ask you did you have some problems with the LEDs after you swaped the on speedometer, i mean do they work properly now after 1 year? Im just curious
Yes mate it works absolutely fine. Still using a same speedometer but just in different 407
Hi, I want to ask you for help with headlights adjustment wheel problem, it sudenly stoped working, I dont know what to check, may be some fuse or something? Thanks for answer.
I can't remember a headlights in a 407 having a directional Headlight? What exactly is a problem?
@@Mad4FrenchCars headlights adjuster wheel does nothing. You know that little wheel next to the stering wheel is not working anymore, i donk know if it could be due to fuse or smth…i cant adjust headlights level manualy anymore
@@lukasolejnik8448 oh I see to be fair is just a little switch and can be faulty might be good idea to order one from ebay they should be cheap, I can't remember any seperate fuse for that
@@Mad4FrenchCars i tried to change that switch, nothing…
@@lukasolejnik8448 I had a look at the fuse diagrams and some 407s 2005 models had a dedicated fuse for it it was a fuse No 9 under dash and it was 10amp. What year is your 407 I can check if it has one. I would just check all fuses
Oh and another question.
The air-conditioning system in my 407 sw has failed,yet again.
I've had the condenser replaced twice in 60,000 miles but now reluctant to pay a commercial garage to do it again.
Is there a problem with the air-conditioning system on the 407, and how easy is it to do this job DIY?
I am not aware of any common issue with air-conditioning as it always seem to be something else. It can be anything from condenser to little o rings on a pipes to actual air-conditioning pump. I have it many times and always some different issue. I would get a garage to put a floresant gas in a system to see where is a leak if there is any. But the good aircon specialist will be able to quickly tell what's wrong with it. And prices are according to what's wrong really. If it's a pump you can get good used one for like 50£ usually. Pipes can be sourced from scrapyard. Condenser better to be new
@@Mad4FrenchCars thanks. I think it's the condenser getting damaged by stones and gravel entering the front of the vehicle.
If I decide to go back to the air conditioning specialist I'll ask this time exactly what the problem was.
@@toonmag50 ya need to 100%
"The air-conditioning system in my 407 sw has failed,yet again."
Can you explain, how did it failed? There is no cool air at all? Is it happening on both sides (driver and passanger)?
Because there is a common 407 problem with some flaps inside the ventilation column...
@@sinisamilosevic6301 my 407 is a slightly cheaper version aimed at sales representatives wanting a motorway muncher and at a price competitive with rivals.
As a result a few things were nibbled away- one of which was the duel zone heating/ventilation.system My car has just has one zone.
FYI the panoramic roof also disappeared ,on my car, as well as electric window winders in the rear.
My 407 SW is coming up to 165,000 miles (265,000) and I do like it. It's never broken down ,and is perfect for golf trips and my wife loves the power/torque of the diesel going over the hills.
Not sure whether to invest anymore money into the car though- assuming cars lifespans are about 150,000 miles.
Can you make a video replacing the hydraulic oil?
Hi mate which hidraulic fluid are we talking about? I will be making a video on power steering fluid replacement on 407 also brake fluid. And I will be making a little video on a hidraulic fluid for a gearbox actuator in Peugeot 508 soon aswell. Let me know which fluid you are talking about and I will see what I can do.
@@Mad4FrenchCarsyeah on the power steering wheel system, whit electric pump. Total fluid DA oil😊😊
On 407 🙂
@@pavlintsanevsky3946 I will do a video on that in a near future but I am unable to do it atleast till middle of march as my car park is getting resurfaced with tarmac. But its on my list on videos coming.
Hi i'm french i have the same engine but on the peugeot 307 sw my tank are more and more brown ( yellowish) it's harder see the level of the coolant
my question is if i changed the timing belt with water pump do you think it's enough to only flush the radiator or i have to flush also the engine ?
my car has almost 340 000 km (around 211000 miles)
thanks
I would flush all of it if possible if not then just radiator is better then nothing
@@Mad4FrenchCars Thanks man i have another question when a change the waterpump it's possible to flush into the thermostat or i have also to remove and the heater radiator will be flush also ?
А пыльник на шрузу!
Hi, i have a problem with my 407, it is making the noise which you can hear in video below. It only does it when car is on it's operation temperature and everything is correctly warmed up. When car is cold it doesn't make that sound. Do you have any experiencies with it? I cant find what it is.
Video here and sound start at 0:12sec ruclips.net/video/ktl_eI6Uz7s/видео.html
Hi mate it's a power steering pump noise. Need to top up power steering fluid. Always put tiny bit over a max mark. Should sort the problem out.
@@Mad4FrenchCars Thank
you for answer, i've already bleed and overfilled my power steering pump... I can say that it get a bit better but still doesnt disappear. I dont have any leakage or something like that so far... Maybe it could cause old hydraulic oil? I havent tried to change it..
Also Very important to use only recommended power steering fluid. if incorrect fluid used you gonna have problems such as a fluid going out of the power steering pump through the cap.
@@Jamo2139 if incorrect power steering fluid used before then it does affect a system a lot
@@Mad4FrenchCars Car is 2008 so i dont think that fluid was ever changed.. I bought total da fluide which is recommended by peugeot. I dont have any other problems with steering only that noise☹️. The oil is always a little bit foamy after warm up. But really very little. Could it make that problem?
