Thanks everyone! Now I’m at peace!

So as long as it is OAT or HOAT and in a shade of orange I can use it? Of course after I’ve flushed the old out.

Thanks! Do you know if I can use red or pink? Or what are the criterias for coolant?

Hi, RR -08 Westminster V8 supercharged. I find red, purple, green, purple/red, almost orange (like purple/red and some water). It seems quite hard to find any orange coolant in Sweden. Do it have to be orange, or can it be almost orange? Or can I flush the system and fill it up with red? Can...

Can I take the black ”box” out? I tried but I couldn’t. I’ll have to try harder tomorrow.

Hi, I have a L322 -08 4.2 l Supercharged Westminster Edition. Something is draining the battery and a friend of mine told me to try to use a heating camera to find a fuse that is hot when it’s not supposed to be. The camera showed that the R1 in the rear fuse box was 13 degrees Celsius and all...

Yeah, I think I need to go to a other garage as well. The previous owner changed the tires to 275/40 (not cool) but the original says it should be 255/50 20”. Do you think the tires can have that big impact on the car? It feels very bumpy and you can feel the smallest bump in the road. A...

UPDATE! I took the car to a test center to let them have a check. They hade a look at steering, suspension, the electrics, exterior/interior, bushings and much more. I paid £140...and he said he could'nt find any big problems except some minor things that I already know of. Now my wife says I...

;) Or did I find a car where the owner didn’t know it’s true value? ;) I will take the car to a garage and find out what could be wrong with it. Will make an update when the final decision has been made.

Yes, maybe that’s the thing to take it to a garage and have them take a look at it and give me a price on changing the necessary things. I bought I quite cheep and much on the vehicle works fine. I don’t want to have a bill that’s way higher than what I bought the car for. Or do how you think...

Yes, a Peugeot. Can you help me with that? It’s a RR Westminster 4.2 V8 Supercharged.

I have a 2008. I’ve bought it recently and is about to make it to it’s former glory. I’m new to the brand and new to DIY on cars so bare with me. When I’m driving and hitting a small bump, a sleeping police man or whatever I can feel it very clear in the steering wheel and in the whole car...

UPDATE! I installed the gas cap and have driven the car for some 40 km. The engine light is gone and it seems to work. No vacuum in the fuel tank (no “sshuup” when turn to open the cap). If something will happen in the future I’ll do an update again.

Isn’t it a vent (of some sort) in my original gas cap? What can it be then?

Yeah. And I live in Sweden so you have the shipping cost as well. I'll come back to you how things turned out.
