• Peugeot 407 SW - 1.6HDi No Power, Black Smoke 18 Aug 2015 (Forum)
   After a few days of driving it lost all power and would not rev over 2000-2500 rpm, it did not even have enough power to pull away on a fairly flat road, I also got the "anti pollution fault" message. I plugged the diag machine in (Peugeot Planet) and it informed me that the DPF was blocked.  I also suspected the Turbo was at fault, so as money is tight at the moment I replaced the turbo cartridge/CHRA, while I had the car in bits I removed the DPF and gave it a good clean with a pressure washer and Mr Muscle oven cleaner.
