chronique: Sorry about that. It's quite unfortunate that this has happened to you. It's a bad trend and it will affect the credibility of other auto dealers here. All the same,if it can be fixed;pls do. Otherwise,sell it off to avoid a situation where it will start draining your resources. Wish you luck.

Dr. Joe:


many thanks, the drain of resources is what gives me heart attack now because i already am surrounded with expenses here and there. i have spent money to fix the door buttons, i also paid for scanning and diagnosis but the AC and ABS issue is still there. from the scan report, nothing is wrong with the gear1 nor the gear box. just that the gear box sensor is somewhat connected to the ABS according to the auto mechs that scanned it.
the gear 1 moves well at start up but break seems to be vibrating then after few minutes, the ABS light comes on then the break is normal but the gear 1 is inactive. the AC seems to be the issue with overheating because the car is not overheating when the AC is cut off.
i have been spending money to do the fix since then but i can no longer afford the fixes as i have hospital bills, medicine and other new-born's stuff to buy.
honestly i want to sell the car off to any buyer who can fix it. i have contacted Chiebube in Abuja(via email)to see if he can assist me fix and sell the car, am waiting for his reply . also i humbly ask for ideas/assistance here from anyone who can assist to fix and sell the car.

Ikenna351: I dont even know where to start. But i have to start somewhere.

My issue is not even with the seller, but your friend's brother. Because, you probably wouldnt have bought the car if he had told you he wasnt sure of the car or that he couldnt really tell how good the car was. But he told you "you are safe to make the purchase" , simply because of naira that will never be enough to solve ones problem. The thing people can do because of money!

If you had posted the link above to the Peugeot community before the purchase, you wouldnt have made that purchase. By mere looking at the engine, a lot Lion owners there would advice you to walk away. I could the engine is not even the popular EW10. And the worst part is the transmission. If the auto transmission in that car is the dreaded AL4, then you are in for it. I wouldnt have adviced you to buy that Lion if i had seen it before purchase, no matter how cheap it is.

ABS and auto trans ECU shouldnt be interconnected. But with AL4 (if thats the transmission), i wouldnt be surprised. Scanning the car with PP2000 will tell you which of the ABS wheel sensors that is faulty. Universal scanner wont be specific, but pp2000 will tell you which wheel sensor that is the culprit and how to fix it.

As for your AC and over heating issues, how you sure the culprit isnt airpocket? Whats the condition of the expansion bottle container cap? Hope no one has tampered with A/C fan connection? Note that Peugeots of that era had 3 fan speed. When AC is switched one, the 2nd speed kicks on and would few mins later kicks in the 3rd speed. The 3rd speed usually kicks in when car is stationary and AC is on. But as soon as car starts moving beyond 60km/h, the 3rd speed goes off, and the 2@nd speed comes back. It would switch to the 1st speed when AC is off and car is in stationary.So, how are sure the 3rd speed relay has not been bypassed or disconnected.

If you are in Abuja, bring the car and i would scan it free for you with PP2000.

And for everyone reading this, if you want want to buy Peugeot, get the VIN and send it to me. I will get all info about the car for you, including the factory engine and transmission code.
