#1: Anti pollution fault experiences? Author: crocdino, Location: LeedsPosted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 1:38 am ---- Ok so my lass is a bit dim. It's not the battery light but the engine management one that's on!
Done a bit of reading and it seems that it's quite a generic fault warning and could be a number of things.. O2 sensor, cat (altho this has a seperate cat warning) etc etc
I'm off to get the codes read today.. But if anyone has any experience of what faults were read on their car can you put it in here.
Cheers

Will it pass with warning light?

You're p**sing in the wind until you get the codes read. There are too many things to guess at that can turn the EML on
The EML being illuminated isn't a reason for failure Last edited by macca1411 on Thu Aug 30, 2012 4:41 am; edited 1 time in total

#5: Re: Anti pollution fault experiences? Author: Danw_VVT, Location: Herts/LondonPosted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 4:43 am ---- Main ones are o2 sensors. I've been fighting with mine for ages. I've used about 3 lambda sensors 1 mil eliminator and a remap to cure mine. Still no luck lol
#6: Re: Anti pollution fault experiences? Author: crocdino, Location: LeedsPosted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 7:28 am ---- Cheers. I'll have them read on the way home from work tomorrow now.
The car drives fine, no loss of performance, stuttering etc etc...
What's the reason for not clearing the code?
If it passes the MOT i'm not too arsed about it tbh!
Cheers for the help

It comes and goes and peugeot advised it wasnt anything that 'needed' fixing. Strangely seems to trigger more if the petrol is low.
#8: Re: Anti pollution fault experiences? Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 11:20 am ---- You can only clear faults about 40 times, after that the ecu is locked, so best to do it when you have to.
Dan vvt. Have you looked at your map sensor?
#9: Re: Anti pollution fault experiences? Author: crocdino, Location: LeedsPosted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 12:45 pm ---- Steve. Cheers for that mate, didn't know.
The lights disappeared now so whatever is wrong has cured itself (for the minute anyway!) It disappeared after I disconnected the battery for an hour or so. Went out for a drive and still not came back up.
Will wait for it to flash back up before i get them read. Could be tomorrow, could be next week or next year!
#10: Re: Anti pollution fault experiences? Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Thu Aug 30, 2012 3:16 pm ---- Replied to your pm, ive had faults that dissapear after a restart, although if you disconnected the battery to clear it, it may come back.

Your just p**sing in to the wind until you scan it for fault codes.
ANTIPOLLUTION FAULT means there is a fault detected by the engine managment system, what the actual fault is & where to start looking to fix it your not going to know without the fault codes which are now stored in the ecu memory waiting to be read.
