I have a Peugeot 207 1.6 VTI - the antipollution fault could be related to either a head gasket issue or ECU issue, mine appeared for a day then disappeared the day after, I believe I have a vacuum leak in the intake system somewhere causing the miss fire (the engine shuddering + shaking) the antipollution fault is caused due to a bad air/fuel mix ratio so recommended fixes are - look for vacuum leaks, inspect spark plugs (these need to be changed every few thousand miles), look at the fuel injectors (have them changed if necessary) get a mechanic to look at the coil packs too (these are known to fail on the 1.4 and 1.6 petrol engines ) if nothing else works look at the PCV valve(this is responsible for regulating the blow-by gasses in the engine and put them into the intake system if this gets clogged or stuck could cause values to be off therefore causing the fault) get this replaced if necessary, hope this helps people.
Peugeot 207 1,4 hdi . once I had a fuel pressure valve and once a fuel pressure regulator and always just change for new one but same story I was loosing power because of pressure
This solution worked for me 🎉. Thank you so much! After the fix I needed to reset the Engine Control Unit (ECU) to clear the warning message. You can do this by disconnecting the car battery for a few minutes, then reconnecting it.
Where to find this sensor on the citroen c2 1.4i vtr manual petrol car and Also where is the temperature gauge for this model cause I see where the fault appears but not sure if that's the engine temperature or room temp
thats a VVT valve - hydraulic valve to adjust cam timing - if its blocked and not adjusting the timing correctly the engine will be running ineffeciently , bad burn rates
If you drive your car more likely for short distances then engine will not get hot enough to start the regenerating process to clean the cloged particulate filter resulting in a antipollution fault. Drive your car to a motorway or empty dual carriage way (best in nights). The temperature meter should be showing above 60°C when you begin with this process. Place 3rd gear and drive your car at 3000-3500 rev /min for 15 to 20 minutes to let the ecu to kick the regeneration process. Keep driving car for 15 minutes in this state will be enough to clean your catalytic converter and your problem will be solved. But if it doesn't then the problem is with your catalytic converter and more probabily you need to change it. This worked for me 100%
Hi...thanks for the solution. However, I tried to locate this sensor on the 207 and somehow it is not the same as on this 308. Wish I knew how to locate this sensor on the 207.
Good fix but that is not a sensor, it's a solenoid valve used to divert oil flow. Don't know what it does there but I have come across them many times in hydraulic systems.
I’ve got a 207 and the antipolution lights comes on and my engine shakes and the fan turns on. The car doesn’t over heat tho I’m not sure what’s going on
@@green-crocs-fixes1520 When I start my engine, the fan starts to work after 5 seconds and works next 5-10 minutes, even I turn off the car.Also, engine shakes and there is less power during the drive.I cleaned the sensor like you shows, but there is no change
I tried this and it didn't help. I've understood there are 2 of these? This is hard one to crack since it seems there's so many reason it could be doing so
Thank you I might try these method, I have been driving with my puegot 308"petrol 2010 it show same sign, took garage quoted me £200 said its oxygen sensor need to change, I might give a go never tried but looks easy steps, thank you, if it's worked I'll let you know,
I have not tried but the car got more issues now with car temperature gauge comes 90 within 10minutes of drive which was taking before like 140 minutes don't know what is happening to my car 😢😢time to spend another fortune on car, macanics told that engine has some particles in engine
@@xavier-de8vb temperature should come up to 90 in 10 minutes ... Your previous state was probably a faulty termostat and your car never really got up to temperature... Car should run at 90c .
Because oil is not clean. You must clean karter. And you can use brake cleaner for clean sensor but if oil is dirty again you will have faulty antipollution
Hi Mango, if your oil and level is good then maybe its time to replace the unit, as this issue initially disappeared after an oil and Filter change. Regards.
Hi Keisha, its not just women who face inflated quotes, it could be anyone who does not understand what's involved sadly, but your not wrong. This is just a vehicle I repaired for someone and there were no other issues prior, like low Revs just the warning you see here. Most people do not or cannot afford regular service or maintenance, until something goes wrong with their vehicle 😀.

I have the same problem on my C4 what is the name of the sensor you changed ?
Does the 1.4 diesel version have this sensor do you know? constant anti-pollution warnings on mine

this 1.4 Petrol engine is just one I resolved for someone. I don't know if a Diesel version has the same setup.

What sensor is that ? which you were removing to clean with syringe and degreaser 😁
Hi Dimitri,
its the Timing Control Solenoid Valve/
Of the exhaust camshaft
Hi, would this solenoid be roughly in the same position for a 307 2.0l petrol? Thankyou.

would this be the same for a peugeot 3008 2010?

maybe however the Sensor will probably be placed in a different position.

That looks like a variable valve timing solenoid, not a pollution sensor.... pollution sensors are based around the exhaust

How much would you charge to fix something like this. As well as low revs? I feel like some places over quote when a woman brings in a car.

why do you keep calling the solenoid a sensor? 🤣

It’s a video, so you will hear the word Solenoid every time too press play. Awfully sorry 😀.
