• Peugeot 406 Vibration 3 Mar 2006 (Forum)
  When I reaches a certain rev I get a lot of vibration in the accelerator pedal. The 406 is a 1997 R reg diesel estate (not HDI). When i manual adjust the throttle under the bonnet at the associated revs the whole injection unit vibrates rapidly. The Peugeot garage said it could be the fuel pump bearings but I reckon that would cause constant vibration and not just at a certain rev.

• Renault Kangoo Van 1.9D - Lucas Epic injection pump 30 Apr 2016 (Forum)
  I ran thru a series of checks such as new air filter, fuel filter, cat clear. Egr was replaced by previous owner 6 months ago and is checked and working fine. I then took it to local diesel specialist who checked for fault codes and found none. Their suggestion was injectors or injection pump but thought more likely injectors because it ran and started so well.
