Forums Européens du Club Coupé 406

My French is not very good, but even I can understand that this message that this message I saw on the main forum http://www.clubcoupe406.com/EuroForums/ ... highlight=

refers to a recall for 2.2 HDi's.

I own an HDi and so I am very interested in finding out what the problem is.

Unfortunately I cannot understand what the article is saying ?

Is there anyone who can translate this message for me.

Thanks.

It's about the "pre-warming" system, the "junction box" where it is integrated is subject to early degradation. This box should be behind the battery and the air duct.
It concerns 406 built between March 2000 and September 2003.
Hope you can figure out what I mean, not easy to translate such technical terms

Thanks Freddo,
At least I now understand which area I am going to have to check.

I don't believe this recall has been advertised in the UK yet.

Good to see you over here
Always happy to "assist the police with their enquiries"
I'll translate it and post it here, then you can pick it up and post it for the agricultural boys on our forum for the speakers of the language of Milton and Shakespeare (well some of them, anyway)
