Update: The rubber seal (visible from the cabin with the console removed) is held in by a metal plate from underneath (the pins are actually bolts), which is 'hidden' behind the heat shield for the cat. Fingers crossed there are no more nasties keeping the cables in place!

Hi Guys, I'm needing to replace said part, as the side-to-side movement on my gear stick has totally ceased. Has anyone doe this before? I've got a few reservations about any hidden retaining clips around the bulkhead, and the rubber seal which seems to held in by pins(??) but I can't see how...

Thanks for the replies, Yeh, I think exhaust and intake will not be the most likely things to change first, I've read a few things about people bashing uprated panel filters (had one on my 307 XSi and it was fine) just because there doesnt seem to be an intake kit available for this model...

Hi Guys, I've recently bought a Civic (as the title) and I was after a bit of advice on the quickest/cost effective mods I can do, not including a re-map, this is my first venture into Diesel so any help would be appreciated! Cheers

Re: 307 XSI - ESP Warning Light-UPDATE! Decided to take my car to Team Valley Tuning in Gateshead to see if they could have a look on the diagnostics side and it turns out that the position sensor on the steering wheel hub just needed reprogramming after we replaced the faulty comms unit which...

Cheers for the reply! I've priced up most of the service parts and they are fairly reasonable. Only thing I am wondering is; if I buy a version with the Xenon 'angel eye' headlights do I have to replace the whole lamp if it goes off?? that looks expensive!

I'm looking at buying one of these (2nd hand) does anyone know of any common faults or problem area's I can look out for? Cheers

Hi Guys, This has me and my dad completely stumped!! It's either going to be incredibly simple or more complicated than we have so far investigated! The problem is, the ESP warning light comes on when I drive over 5mph in a straight line (that will be improtant later on). It started after I...

I dont think so its the 138hp '03 so far as i know its just the standard EW10 16v

Thanks for the relpy, Probably should of mentioned i've already got a replacement panel filter, that was the first thing i did :). I've also priced up a cat-back exhaust system but my original back-box is going to be blowing pretty soon so i'm basically running it to failure then replacing it...

Hi Guys, Been a while since i've posted but i'm after a few opinions on engine mods. As it is, the 2.0ltr engine is pretty standard but i want to start changing a few things to get some better power out of it! If anyone has any suggestions on a good place to start or anything they have done it...

Hi Guys, Been a while since I posted on here but i'm bit stuck and you's guys are usually best for answers... My problem is I need to replace the Comms 2000 unit on my '03 307 XSI but there are so many different variations mine has all the auto functions etc i just wondered if the same comms...

Update.....Re: Peugeot 307 XSi Gearbox Got my gearbox looked at and the clutch was totally sound but the gearbox was completely wrecked! Getting a new gearbox (and clutch) fitted but its a newer 307 box than my 140hp '03 model with longer ratio's and I'm guessing its from the 180hp Feline...

I did briefley think about the clutch because its done those miles on a single clutch if it was never changed before i bought it... I'm going to check the oil level to be certain but it should be fine really, oil was changed about 20k ago when I put some ZX-1 in my gear box.

Cheers for the replies. Yeah 81k isnt a lot and i'm assuming but I'm pretty sure its my gear box tbh. The problem started with a loud whining in 3rd after a lot of driving now its progressed to a rattling/grinding noise all the time in any gear (less when the clutch is down) except 3rd really...
