My pleasure mate.

Thank you mate.

Sounds like your oil dirty.. as your trans has oil in torque converter and that oil has mixed with new I would advise at least two more oil changes at least or the most effective way is to take it to some one who has the appropriate vaccum pump which sucks the trans clean. And fresh oil done in one hit. BUT. WHO WERE THE STUPIDOES WHO PUT THE OIL FILTER IN THE BOWELS OF THE TRANSMISSION. !! SOME ONE ONCE SAID. ***. STUPID IS WHAT STUPID DOES !! *** TAKE CARE !!

Thankyou mate. I have checked with Halfords, heynes manual and few sites and all showed that my car is 2.6l gearbox oil capacity. Also the old oil was more then 2litres. However i cant guarantee to anyone thats correct as loads of people think its actually 1.9l so i hope people check theyr cars gearbox capacity before they do the job. And thankyou for a nice comment i really apreaciate it. All i can say my car drives absolutelly fine, gears shift much better and economy is better then before after a job done.

Thank you mate I really apreasiate it.

I am doing a cambelt on my red 407 today. Hopefully all goes well

@@Mad4FrenchCars Good luck, as you know I recently did mine.....I do not want to ever do that job again, but it's good now for 180,000km or 9 years, by which time we may have upgraded car

@@Mad4FrenchCars Totally of this subject, are you able to advise how outer rear door trim comes off, I have deep scratch below the trim, easiest way to repair seems to be rub down, fill scratch, wet & dry then primer & respray whole lower door, removing trim will hide paint line once it is re-installed

@@No-timeforimbeciles hi mate I had a same thing on my rear driver side door. Removed a trim and resprayed a lower door. Trims sit on a clips also each rim has a plastic going inside. Google pictures of the ones for sale to see the other side of them then just use a big thin flat paint stripper or screw driver

@@Mad4FrenchCars Many thanks once again, hope the timing belt change went well. ,👍

My pleasure mate

Thankyou

My pleasure my friend.

Hi I would love to do a video on 1.6hdi clutch replacement and I am sure I will do it in a near future but at the moment 1.6 hdi 407 has been sold and I am just a look out for something else.

@@Mad4FrenchCars C5 X7 with Hydropneumatic suspension... you know you want one.... ;-)

@@khalidacosta7133 why not I am open for a little challenge:) also they do look amazing and all the luxury it comes with

Nope there is no transmision filter only sump plug with magnet to collect a metal dust

​@@Mad4FrenchCars brilliant, thanks.

Hi mate my 407 is 2009. Regarding amount of oil I think it should be around 2 liters of oil. Some gearbox I think contains 2.6 L of oil and some 1.9l I normally just put 2 L in.

@@PodsjetnikZaDusu 2009

From what i can find:Engine 407 2.0 HDi 16V DPF (100 kW) RHR Unit Transaxle, manual Capacity 2,6 L Change interval Check 40000 km/ 24 months Oil type Original oil Also Engine 407 2.0 HDi 16V DPF (120 kW) RHH Unit Transaxle, manual Capacity 2,2-2,9 L Change interval Lifelong use Oil type Original oil Also Engine 407 2.0 HDi 16V DPF (100 kW) KOX Unit Transaxle, manual Capacity 2,6 L Change interval Check 40000 km/ 24 months Oil type Original oil The only one with 1.9litre is petrol 2.0

Also i know about this fins argument is been around for longer then i can remember. Car seem to be happy with it i dont see no increase in fuel consumption. I dont want it to starve on oil i rather have a bit extra if thats a case. Also i 100% agree with original oil. The old oil was really dirty on further inspection and more then 2liters has come out so someone else thought is 2.6litres too as otherwise it would be less then 2 litre of oil in it.

Right so i just been to 3 different places to check my gearbox oil capacity. So dealer said 2.6 l, halfords said 2..6l, and my local part shop said 2.6l i gave all of them my reg

@@Mad4FrenchCars I am quoting from Peugeot Servicebox. Click on Gearbox in Parts, Repair Procedures, Identification - data - Tightening torques: gearbox ML6C. Right at the bottom, gives values for all scenarios, engines and type of ML6C gearbox. 2.6 litres is recommended when overhauling, i.e taking apart gearbox.

I have a 2021 Rifter with the 6 speed ML6C gearbox. Gearbox without ribs/fins: 2.9 (factory fill) - 2.6 (service fill). Gearbox with ribs/fins: 2.2 (factory fill) - 1.9 (service fill).

Only automatic transmission for 407 had a filter.

Thankyou mate. What engine does your car have. Also wich year. As different engines have different gearbox. Also gearbox changed on through the years. Some use to have a bolt near passenger side wheel where you can undo the bolt to check the level as if fluid starts to run out then its enough if not then need to top up. Bolt is different from other bolts and located right next to a wheel arch shield. Around a half high of the gearbox. Some gearbox don't have that bolt. You can try googling it some more clear pictures and diagrams comes up. I normally just Google how much oil should be in a gearbox then release old oil out, change a coper washer on gearbox oil release plug bolt. And then refill amount specified of a fresh gearbox oil for my car back to gearbox. Normally cost around 10£/L

@@Mad4FrenchCars thank you for reply... My car is Citoren C5, 2.0, 100kw, 6 speed...2006 year...I think it's same engine like this in your video...🍻

110k miles or 170 k km

@@Mad4FrenchCars I ment, is it 100KW or 103KW (or 140HP) - (Kilowatts or horsepower)

@@mirkovicivan 100Kw on a paper but i really think its 103kw

@@Mad4FrenchCars Thanks!

Ya absolutely fine.

Thank you for sharing a correct spec oil name aswell as I am sure viewers will find it use full.

It might be a good idea if you planning to keep the car for next few years

Thats very good question but i dont have a answer some of them come with screw accesable from wheel arch but some doesmt seem to have it and not sure how to check them

@@Mad4FrenchCars Thanks for the answer, I had a peso 308 5 speed, he had that screw, but this one seems to only have a drain and a spigot.

In some of them there is a bolt on a end of gearbox which can be removed and if oil is leaking means level on some of them there is no bolt

@@Mad4FrenchCars I meant specifically the one in which you changed the oil

@@szczepan174 i am not sure mate as i dont have this car anymore and cant really have a look. You can remove your plastic wheel arch shield around a front wheel on a gearbox side and you should see if there is a bolt at a very end of gearbox around a midle to be undone foir oil level check

Which engine and what year?

@@Mad4FrenchCars Year 2010, 2 liters automatic 143 hp. Thanks !

@@itayonplay352depends on engine code: Engine 407 2.0 HDi 16V DPF (103 kW) RHR Unit Transaxle, automatic Capacity 3 L (Service fill), 7 L (Dry fill) Change interval Lifelong use Oil type Original oil Another one is :Engine 407 2.0 HDi 16V DPF (120 kW) RHH Unit Transaxle, automatic Capacity 4 L (Service fill), 7 L (Dry fill) Change interval Lifelong use Oil type Original oil And one more : Engine 407 2.0 HDi 16V DPF (100 kW) RHR Unit Transaxle, automatic Capacity 3 L (Service fill), 7 L (Dry fill) Change interval Lifelong use Oil type Original oil

@@itayonplay352 thats all i can gather as i am not very familiar with automatic gearboxes

In this video is a 6 speed manual gearbox. Sorry didn't really understand a question

Haynes manuals are not made by Peugeot. I am using Peugeot data base and the only ones with life of a vehicle is the automatic transmission ones ( not gonna lie that needs to be changed every 100k miles too). Its a personal choise too some people cant be bothered to change it. But i had a gearbox fail before becouse of poor oil and had to get a another gearbox on one of my 407 s before.

@@Mad4FrenchCars it looks a straight forward job, but getting the plastic under tray off is such a pain.

@@toonmag50ya it is a bit pain. Also i am prity sure heynes manual mislead people saying that this gearbox oil capacity is 1.9 litre then actually should be 2.6 litre.

Some takes 2.6 liters and some take 1.9 liters. There is a 2 types of gearboxes. I am showing a procedure, can't advice on exact amount you need.

It depends which gearbox is in your car. 407 2.0hdi has a couple of different gearboxes it depends on a year of the car. Some take 1.9litre of oil and some takes around 2.6 if fully drained. So what year and engine size is your car?

If your car is 2.0hdi with 6 speed manual gearbox then Normally you can have a look from the bottom of the car if it has a cooling fins the Haynes manual says it needs 2.6 litres of oil if it has cooling fins, and 1.9 litres if it doesn't.

@@Mad4FrenchCars cooling fins????how loks this cooling fins?this appears in your video?

@@bmarian9357 yes you can see cooling fins on my gearbox at 5:56. Or you can see how it looks like in a link bellow frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/download/file.php?id=5288&sid=d8ee7ce43688fc2ac57f16cb7071bd18&mode=view
