Shar

I had this 3 times in the past and each time they just reset the computer.

Last week it happened again so I got the AA to take me to the local Peugeot garage and they replaced the "hydraulic tappets" (sorry for spelling).

It may be that ???

The button on the light stalk marked "auto" is for the Satellite Navigation system and nothing to do with the lights or washers.

My automatic headlights don't work anymore - I used to like that feature. Must get it into the garage to check it out - when I get time! :(

Hmmm - I am not sure I am applying it right. I wiped it along the roof seal and down the window seals but after just 2 days it started making the good old squeaking noises again. I did put quite a lot on as well.
Am I destined to have a noisy car :cry:

Just realised tonight that I was lucky. We have two parking spaces on our drive and one would knock into a wall, so if I had parked on the left and it had rolled down- it would have been a wall it hit!! lucky escape. Keep it in gear now!

Alex - I would love to have the roof down but not in this country for a few months yet!

I bought some of the yellow can stuff from Halfords today so will see how it goes.

My drive could never be described as a hill but it still rolled down it! Probably just as well it wasn't or I could have done some damage!

Secondly the drive at my house slopes forward and one night the handbrake fails on the car and it comes crashing into my garage door. Now I know I definately put the handbrake on properly using two hands, so I parked it on the level and called peugeot. Guess what - I opened the front door this morn...

I am glad I read this thread as my brakes have been squeaking for well over a month but my partner said "oh it will be some dirt on the brakes" and not anything that Peugeot will fix free of charge. I may now ask them if they will look at it. Also, I had similar problems getting a courtesy...
