Peugeot 307sw first time owner

[tropi_flakes]

Good day well night ppl here goes nothing.

Coming from a long family history of jap vehicles over the past week I bit the bullet and purchased a PBW 306 sw from one of my managers, reason being was the price I got it for ( he just bought a new vehicle ) and well to see if owning a Peugeot is as bad as ppl say ( when I called my mechanic and told him I bought it he hung up on me ). I don't no where to start with this car, lights switch on the left not right is gonna take some getting used to keep putting on my wipers trying to turn corners lol, back on topic now the vehicle needs a little love, engine and tranny works fine tho he just spent $7k to service the tranny, he was the first owner of the vehicle and kept it for 8 years before selling to me. The little things he did not see about tho is getting to me I want to do a general service but don't no where to start to look for parts. I'm not planning on using this car as a daily driver tho, it's more the grocery/ mall run vehicle for now.

Parts needed are as follows:
All the mounts ( yes all )
Oil and filter ( what brand)
Plugs
Ends
Belt
Ac compressor ( currently not working)
And a windshield ( has a chip that's starting to spider I'm not going to chance a ticket lol )

Can someone tell me where all of the above can be sourced without goin company?
He used to service his car by a mechanic over the highway in el Socorro side that only deals with those type of vehicles.


Moral of this story, I just need some do's and dont's for this brand of vehicle , all advice will be appreciated
P.s the panoramic roof is sexy

Thanks in advance

Good to hear that you want to take care of your peugeot. I get parts from people's auto. They're in the phone book. One branch in el Socorro and one in maraval.

You can also get a lot of parts online from uk sellers as long as you know your part number.

Good luck with your car.

Try getting the software that relates to the Peugeot brand, known as the Electronic Parts Catalogue.
There are some Pug fanatics on here that would be willing to assist you.
Did you have the car scanned before you buy it?

[plex]

These are the firms i deal with :

People Auto Supplies
ERM
Neal & Massey

Actually N&M will bring the part for u within 7-10 days or slightly more depending on the part.

Thanks for the response so far guys, yes I had it scanned today, we checked everything no codes what so ever so that's a gr8 start. Just need to get the things I listed and I should be good to go.

try and get a Haynes workshop manual. Even if you don't do your own work, it's a great reference resource and trouble shooting guide

[tropi_flakes]

Ok cool thanks. Anyone know where I could get the ac compressor and the windshield lol

[MG Man]

u try ebay?

[Pointman-IA]

Ebay you tell him?
Is better he buy a new one from the UK and bring it in. The weight of the compressor would be your cost factor.

[Mazdout]

Try these guys:
The Windscreen Company
23 Hassanalist, EL Socorro
Telephone: 462-4153 / 488-4949 / 364-1989

So I have been calling around and some people want as much as 10k for the compressor yes I said 10k for that price is bess I slap in a qg18 and done lol, trying my best tho to keep it original for the past week the car just parked up

[MG Man]

Now u unnerstand why I said ebay?
Get a UK skybox from ezone and u good to go

[bigchief3679]

'Slap een a QG' and it is then that your problems have just begun, but don't take my word for it.
These cars are the B14 of Europe, shipping one in is actually a good option whether its new or used.

[plex]

Did u call ERM?

[MG Man]

Why pay ERM when u can buy it yourself?

See my friend, after you factor in
1) Shipping cost, because of its weight
2) Import Duty : 30%
3) Vat: 15%

You MIGHT be looking at close to $10k. It is recommended to change the dryer as well.

[bigchief3679]

^^ If that is indeed the bolt pattern for the compressor as well as pulley offset and number of grooves, it will not be difficult to modify your existing bracket to accept another compressor. Many Nissan compressors have a common 90x140 mm bolt pattern and different pulley configurations, just offering a different option

[tropi_flakes]

So I have been callin around and still not getting any headwind. There is a guy I meet tho with a car just like mine and his compressor went, he changed it and put a Nissan compressor in it lol it blowing like ice lol he said everything cost him around $2000 , he had to make over a bracket to bolt on the compressor he bought in le bamboo. I'm thinking of going that way

[MG Man]

Sounds good man

[tropi_flakes]

Could so one tell me why an engine mount is $1900 tranny $1800 and rear $ 1750

[MG Man]

cuz u not on ebay

[tropi_flakes]

Ok problems again
Got an original compressor for the pug but it's still not working, can anyone point me to a pug ac man lol

[tropi_flakes]

People I need a 307 sw ac condenser asap

[MG Man]

Around TT$1k, plus shipping and duties...3k max
what's the problem?????

[spirited721]

Type eBay. Type eBay. Type eBay.

[MG Man]

lol, seriously tho.......why tropi beatin up so?
le innernet is not jus for porn....mostly, but not just...

[spirited721]

He probably just hoping to get his stuff locally with less hassle? Idk. Maybe he had some insecurities wrt ordering the things he needs online. ... op shed some light.

[Pointman-IA]

Hence I was saying to have the vehicle properly checked out before giving away your money to your manager.

[tropi_flakes]

Updates lol source one from a front cut $1500 ac working now everything original no conversions needed in total spent around $8000 parts and labour but she lives
Reason for not using eBay, wanted to give my mom the car to use for the Christmas while she waits for hers to reach. Thanks for all the input tho guys it was appreciated
