Yes, but clear the fault codes after (if you have a code reader)

I find videod noises extremely difficult to diagnose. You have no sense of where the noise is coming from, and the mic just seems to scramble everything together into a cacaphony.
Sorry, I can't make out anything from that. Where does the sound seem to some from, top/bottom/left/right/front/back?

It comes from the engine. If you increase the volume you will hear it better. Its that loud ticking noise. I can't make out if it comes from left or right.I have another video with the bonnet up but its worse as you hear the injector noise. I dont know how else to get a video. Any ideas?
The car thought is driving very well with no issues

If you hold a piece of plastic tubing to your ear, you can use the other end as a stethascope and should be able to pinpoint the source of the noise better.

I have listened to your vid several times and I can't tell anything from it. Someone once told me it is something to do with the compression of the video?? To me it just sounds like a load of jumbled noises with nothing really standing out. There is no substitute for hearing it with your own ear. Sorry

Sorry that I wasn't much of a help...I guess I will start with the compression test as it is the most critical and continue with coils, injectors etc...
Again thanks for your help

It was too hard to hear, try recording just sound.

The way sound is recorded hopefully will be different on your iphone.

You have got the Lexia cables? PP2000 on it's own doesn't work.

I downloaded my software via a thread on peugeotforums.com .. at least I had some confidence then that the s/w wasn't full of viruses (unlike the s/w that came with my lexia cables from aliexpress ...)

As your car is 2004 it SHOULD work with a standard EOBD compatible diagnostic code reader.

Yes I got it from Allied Express and the DVD was full of viruses too! For more than a week I am downloading different versions and installing/uninstalling on different operating systems with no luck!
Do you have the link?
Thanks
