![]() I'll have to take their word on it, but I'am not 100% convinced. I phoned local peugeot stealer yesterday and they confirmed that my vehicle has had these recalls carried out. Neither of these letters have validation stamps, but the previous owner(prior to in laws) had penciled in dates/times for recalls to be carried out! The other is about water ingress into abs ecu dated 2008. One is about an abs wiring fault in the engine bay, can cause a fire risk, dated 2006. This made me wonder about the safety recall for abs faults that I have paperwork for in the history that came with the car, so i dig the letters out. So I stop and turned off the car for a few minutes and then set about taking a slightly extended roadtest, 20ish miles later no light! I'm thinking woohoo fixed it, then I had to go through a large unavoidable puddle due to oncoming traffic and beep, abs fault in display and light back on!!! Cleaned up and all put back together with a packing washer to set gap to a *** paper gap and onto the o/s/r, stripped down, sensor gap paper thin so refitted with new brakes and all done!!! Take it for a drive, 20 yards light comes on!!!! 2-3 miles light still on!!!! I set about it and removed everything to get at the n/s/r sensor and sure enough the sensor was being pushed away from the magnetic pick up by the rust on the hub carrier body where it mounts. I will just add I'm an experienced mechanic with many years in the trade but this is the first time at owning a pug, so had not come across these issues before.Īnyhow, roughly 2 weeks ago the light came on again! I had put new pads in the rear when I repaired the fault last time but I had an inkling it would be a sensor again and knew it now was close to needing new rear discs so decided to do all the work at one time. It came with a replacement sensor which made no difference, until I stumbled across a thread on here about the rust problem.Ĭleaned and packed with a washer and out went the light!!! Result!!! Last time was 2 years ago, when I bought the car from the in laws with the abs fault, but it had been diagnosed on a snap-on modus machine as o/s/r sensor. It's not the first time either, but I have successfully fixed it in the past. I have a 02 307 XSI 2.0 petrol, which has had the dreaded abs fault light appear!!! Firstly I would like to apologise as I know this subject has been done to death over and over again and again!!! ![]()
