Peugeot 406 Automatic Transmission Problems by Ahmedfrk: 1:26am On Aug 31, 2012
Hello,
I want to buy an automatic transmission 406 for my wife but people have frightened me to death about its potential problems. If i still go ahead what does is cost to replace or change it to manual transmission in case it does develop problems. And where in Naija can its problems be solved.

No disrespect, but if you're even considering converting a 4-speed automatic Peugeot 406 to 5-speed manual, why not simply buy a manual to start with?? It's not like manuals are rare cars.

Unless you simply like creating issues for yourself where they shouldn't exist...

No, I simply want to know if it does develop problems, what are the options and what would it cost.

From Statistics I have Personally Obeserved,the Auto Tranny is an issue with most 406 Auto car owners I know.

I Onced witnessed a situation that the gear couldn't engage in 4 or 5 and thus stopped at 3 leaving the Rpm at very High points. From the owners thought or assumption "he said" the problem usually developed from a component in the ECU that had to do with transmission

Like Siena Said,Although Am sure your 1st Prefference is an auto...I'll advice you Go for a manual.
