THE PEUGEOT 407 COUPE FULL REVIEW AND OWNERS GUIDE 

What issues are they?

@@HartmutKrombach unfortunately other than used you wont be able to find an new ones unfortunately! You can delete the system all together and replace with normal suspension or preferably lowering springs

Same with my 2.2 the ride is awful.

You can probably find used ones, I found one from ovoko if that's any help; at least when I looked for them their results didn't show up on google so I was happy to find one from their site directly FWIW mine is a 3.0 petrol but I installed one from one of the V6 diesels, different part number but perfectly compatible and didn't seem to make much of a difference. If all else fails and you can't find used ones then I don't think it would be the end of the world to install the non-electronic ones in their place as they are much easier to find and there are aftermarket parts out there

Yes I had to have this issue fixed on mine!

@@german_lifestyle_tajbakhsh7282 yes I had to have mine repaired lol

@@ps36081 sounds good to me

It's a great combination 😀

Fuse box, lazy french designers

The 3.0 es9 petrol is most reliable - the 3.0hdi is vastly superior over the 2.7 especially for reliability! Id say overall both the 3.0hdi and 3.0 es9 petrol are the ones to go for

@@LIMITLESSMEDIAUK_ Is there any particular issues to look for on the V6 diesels?

@@GECKOZFTWregular oil change is essential to look for. Also cylinder heads gaskets and also the timing belt rumours that might be a bit of risk due to structural issues. I own a 2.7 and so far im alot satisfied with it. Also check for battery used since it is absolutely important to be 90 ah and above. Tailgate wiring is also notoriously problematic. In my channel you can find some short videos about my 407 coupe

Thanks buddy much appreciated 😎

@@LIMITLESSMEDIAUK_ no worries matey, you always put some great content out, keep going and the views will come 👍

@@Paulw76 thanks mate! Some big things coming soon trust me 😎

@@LIMITLESSMEDIAUK_ Sounds good, will be watching this space...👀

@@Paulw76 the hints are - barnfinds - buying and selling - offroading it will be mega 😎

Hello I now have a wireless mic since this video so resolve further issues like this 😄

Definitely 😁

And you have the estate aswell 😁

Was but sold

@@JayGee1 custom stainless buddy

@@LIMITLESSMEDIAUK_ Ahh thx for the quick answer. Im thinking of buying a 407 coupe so looking around for stuff about it. will look through your videos.

@@JayGee1 they're amazing buddy I've had the petrol to so feel free to check out both 😁

I agree with all your saying! The 3.0hdi you need to experience though it's crazy😂👌

@LIMITLESSMEDIAUK_ Definitely! I'm in Australia now, so I've grown accustomed to 6 and 8 cylinders, but starting a family made me look for some more sensible options as my W140 was sending me broke in fuel bills (and that's with 85p/litre fuel!) 🤣 the 3.0 HDi would be a treat, as it combines V8 levels of torque with 4 cylinder fuel efficiency! Peugeots and even diesel passenger cars are a rarity in Australia, and don't even get me started on finding a manual! I almost forgot Peugeots existed until a cheap manual diesel 308SW came up for sale locally at the start of the year. I just had to have it, but then unfortunately someone drove into me a couple of weeks ago and killed it... I searched high and low for a replacement and eventually settled on a 407SW auto, but the 2.0 HDi 136/RHR was the main thing, and I even had to drive 4 hours for that which was a gamble! I saw two or three 407 Coupes for sale on my hunt, two 2.7 HDi autos and one 3.0 petrol auto. I would be happy with either tbh!

@@19jacobob93 136hdi engine recommended life scale is like 300000miles they're excellent

@LIMITLESSMEDIAUK_ Easy, they are excellent! Can't believe I'm shopping for reliability and fuel efficiency now 😅 I do love a good high mileage engine though haha in the past 12 years since I got my license I put 360,000km on a famous Ford Barra 4.0, 260,000km on a W140, I bought my wife a Hyundai new in 2019 and that now has 210,000km, and I put 12,000km on the 308 in the 7 weeks I had it 🤣

@@19jacobob93 I'd love a 2.2hdi to be fair I think that's the peach of the entire range!

Yeh I know 😪 I've got an external mic coming soon to resolve this anyway 😁

@@LIMITLESSMEDIAUK_ Sounds great ;)

So do I

No problem at all buddy

@@tobbelander2037 they're great
