I just wondered if anyone knew how to top up the hydraulic fluid in the roof pump.

I dont appear to have a leak, but the reservoir is only half full and it should be about two thirds full.

It shows you in the repair guide on this forum but when you try and push oil into the hole once you remove the bolt it just leaks out.

hello , i posted the same kind of post months back no one helped , i had the same problem , anyway i finally fixed mine sooo happy well my dad fixed it ,

my roof wouldnt open or shut as the hydrillic fuild was too low and was leaking , all he did was went peugeot and brough the oil cost around £11.00 then removed all the casing the the boot , you will see once the casing get removed you have a little box thing on the right hand side undo it and you will see the pot of oil , u have to the metel thing around it or u can get a serfing and it will take ages its up to u , either way it will make the roof work once it has been filled up ..

i no how you feel i was stressing for months now its fixed and works better than before

hope that helps

Hi thanks for the reply.

What do you mean by "u have to the metel thing around it or u can get a serfing and it will take ages its up to u".

The peugeot intructions state you have to remove the screw on the side of the pump and fill the oil up from there. The instructions also state not to mess with the jubilee clip (? metal thing).

Can you clarify what you mean.

Many thanks.
