Engine / equipment
Peugeot 1007 (petrol and HDi)
Period mentioned
2005–2009
Symptoms
Failing head gaskets on the 1.4 and 1.6 petrol (same engines as the 207); alternator; the 2-Tronic automated gearbox with a stiff reverse, harsh shifts and a clutch that wears in town; steering play, front axle and oil leaks at the roadworthiness test; engine management and starter; on diesels, injectors, EGR, filter and dual-mass flywheel.
Possible cause described
Many 2-Tronic faults come from a weak battery; the actuator motors also fail. Recalls (KBA): central-unit software (about 2,300 cars built up to July 2005) and the front-arm bolts (2008).
Check for the garage
Test the battery before blaming the gearbox; watch the coolant; check the campaigns by VIN.
