Peugeot 407 2.0 hdi lots of black smoke when you put your foot down past 2000 rpm

Do you have an engine code when you check codes ?
If no codes, check fuel filter and air filters first.

chek for a collapsed catalytic converter and/or a clogged exhaust system...if it only smokes when 1st started, it could need valve seals...chek for clogged charcoal canister too if equipped...

could be a lot of things, blocked dpf filter, egr valve stuck open, injector stuck. need to have it plugged in to see what faults the ecu is holding.

Hi I think you need to take car on a 20min long drive over 2000rpm try and keep revs high to clear filter. If that don't work you may need the fap filter changed hope this helps. Peter,

You will need the dealer to scan the powertrian control module for faults.

Hello there my Peugeot 407 16 hdi engine fan has stopped working and AC is not cooling either,does anyone know if there is a relay or fuse that I can try replacing before taking it in? Thanks a lot!

my dad has a peugeot 407 sw hdi 2.2 estate and his boot light and 12v accessories socket does not work any ideas where the fuse box is or how to fix this problem ??

i think the only solution you can get is from the factory service and repair manual and you can get it from the given link http://toolsnyou.com/

it would never be 1000 euros!!!!!!!!!!!! it will be part of the exhaust system it cuts out because its causing pollution

Hi, I have a 2.0HDI Expert which was doing the exact same thing as yours, blowing thick black smoke, sluggish and loss of power on gradients, a hissing sound and surging. I replaced the air flow meter but that didn't help. I was told to replace the turbo but a turbo expoert told me not to as it would blow white smoke if it was faulty. I was then told to replace the injectors but a diagnostic test showed them to be functioning fine. I was then told to look at the intercooler which had thick sludge at the lower left pipe. I replaced it today - Sunday 12th July and it is now driving like a new van. It now pulls me up gradients with ease in 4th and 5th instead of having to drop gear to get to the top. I got a replacement from Euro Car Parts for £147 inc VAT. To tell if this is your problem, look through the gaps in the lower section of the bumper at what looks like the radiator and look for sludge over the inside of the bumper and all over the pipe where it joins the back of the radiator (intercooler). Also open the bonnet and look down behind the grille for the same sludge. Hope this sorts it for you. Barry, Newtownards, Northern Ireland.
