What type of engine oil does a Peugeot 306 (1.6 petrol engine) need?

The torque setting for the nuts on a 1996 Peugeot 306 hatchback will depend on the size of the nuts and the type of bolts they are used with. Here are the recommended torque settings for some of the more common fasteners on the Peugeot 306:

• Wheel nuts: 80-90 Nm
• Engine oil drain plug: 25-30 Nm
• Engine oil filter housing: 25-30 Nm
• Engine oil cooler hose banjo bolts: 25-30 Nm
• Engine oil pump mounting bolts: 25-30 Nm

These torque values are for general reference only and may vary depending on the specific model of the Peugeot 306 and the condition of the fasteners. It is always best to refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for the correct torque settings.

You need to enter what engine etc deisel there is a little hole in the cam wheel which line up to a hole in the head same on the fuel pump and behind the starter motor there is a hole which lined up with a hole in the flywheel always turn the engine clockwise from the crank and always pin and mark pulleys. If I remember the crank pulley floats for about a tooth or so. Pin the crank first make sure it don't move the pin the rest . Petrol the same for the cam and crank but I don't think the crank floats at all so u can mark it

i have just bought a 306 peugeot estate and it is making a noise if it is catching and it is using a lot of petrol what can i do

Multifunction unit is the new name for the turn signal switch

it is a 19mm bolt on the side of the gearbox it takes ep 75 90 gear oil if it helps

there are 2 relays inbetween the 2 fans behind the front grill the wiring to the relays tend to corrode.
what you need to do is replace both relays and the wiring conectors

I would suggest taking out ALL the plugs. The engine will turn over much faster and not drain the battery. You may find that the fuel in the engine has become diluted with water. This turning over without plugs will do a couple of things: a)free up and lubricate everything.
b) give the fuel pump the greatest chance of getting fuel through to the cylinders, c) purge some stale fuel out of the engine. You should be able to smell petrol vapour once it's coming through, albeit feintly.
c)Give you chance to check the spark on each plug.
NOTE THE LOCATION OF EACH PLUG LEAD! If these get swapped round, it will never start until they are corrected!

how hard was your car hit?? is it petrol or diesel? if its petrol the first thing that pops to mind is that, under the bonnet near the back (cant remember what side) you'll see a big red button, press it and try agaijn.. this is a knock sensor for if you ever have a crash... ive set one off just by parking and bumpin the car in front
