Google "Peugeot BSI reset" and follow the steps.
Also check the drivers handbook instructions for re-syncing the key.
Hello everyone,
I am need of a used car and I have decided to buy either a Honda Jazz (non-hybrid) or a MK2 Toyota Prius. For the Jazz I am looking for something 2008/2009 with less than 40K mileage. For the Prius a 2007/2008 with less than 60K mileage.... Read more
As already stated the Prius v the Jazz is like comparing a 911 with a Yaris HSD. Chalk and cheese. Jazz v Yaris now your talking.
I looked at both and the Jazz just struck me as rather boring. So I plumped for the Yaris HSD. Looks a bit racier.....well to me anyway....
Hi all,
It looks like BCA Sure Sell may be no more. If I follow the old link for it, I get to the main BCA page, and all information about selling a single car as a private seller has gone.... Read more
I always thought suresell was a rip off.

Hi
My 2000 Espace will only run cleanly once the air temperature on the dash shows 8 degrees or more. It always starts fine but misfires badly below this temp. Once above 8 degrees it runs fine. I'm guessing an engine management fault but would like to replace the sensor first if only I could find it! Any ideas? Read more
Thanks for that. I didn't change the wing mirror sensor. I just checked it as wasnt aware of any others. Where would I find the air control metre on my espace? Thanks
Hi last week my starter motor started playing up so after a week of struggling I finally bought a new starter motor I took it to a local garage for them to fit when I picked it up the engine diagnostic light has come on. So I took it for a blast but it didn't sort it then it went into limp mode. I got the aa out and they reset the codes and all was well for a few hours and then it came back on!
Any ideas Read more
What were the codes before they were reset? They were most probably the car telling you what the problem was.
Clearing fault codes does not fix a problem....
Looks nice. A shame it isn't coming here. www.wheelsmag.com.au/reviews/1503/2015-kia-carniva...6 Read more
Trust the Australians to call it a 'breeder bus'!
I suppose Kia would steer UK buyers to the i800 made by sister company Hyundai. This is such a big car that UK buyers tend to look for something a bit smaller that can do a similar job. The Renault Espace was popular (we did 125,000 miles in ours) but the Scenic could do 90 % of the same job with a smaller 'footprint'....
Comment from a friend..

I have little to add to that.
Are either of them available? Just in my age bracket is all....
Hi
This evening I took my car to a garage as there was a loud snapping sound when I was driving earlier. Turns out the coil spring has snapped. Whilst checking my car over the mechanic noticed that one of my tyres was a different size, 185 but should be 175. Well turns out the 185 tyre was bought and fitted last year by this garage, luckily enough they have this on file. I've had to leave my car with them to have the coil spring replaced and the mechanic said he'd speak to the manager to ask if he'll replace the wrong tyre free of charge. Should they not do this as it an error they made? Would having the wrong size tyre on my car cause any damage to my car? If they refuse to change it free of charge is it such a big deal that I continue to drive it with the different size tyres?
Thanks Read more
Thanks so much for the quick response. Thank goodness theres no harm caused but I'm ready for a fight if they try to get me to pay for a replacement.
