#18: Re: 206 APF and catalytic converter Fault Author: bisphenol-a, Location: AntarcticaPosted: Thu Jul 21, 2011 9:13 am ---- i was hoping i had a bad start at first so i came back later in the day to try starting up the car. it didnt vibrate so bad this time in fact it felt normal except for the engine diagnostic light. turned the car off, tried again for the 3rd time and this time no catalytic converter fault but a new one! APF.
so is removing 1 injector at a time a foolproof way of finding which is the injector at fault? is it easy to swap it myself?

You need to get the car put on a diagnostic code reader, it will tell you if its misfiring, which was my problem
#20: Re: 206 APF and catalytic converter Fault Author: bisphenol-a, Location: AntarcticaPosted: Thu Jul 21, 2011 9:56 am ---- ohh hell. should i just pass it to the dealers? look like i need a truck!
#21: Re: 206 APF and catalytic converter Fault Author: PugJH, Location: NorthantsPosted: Thu Jul 21, 2011 9:59 am ---- At very least get them to code read it, then if the code is something obvious fix yourself, if not get the garage to do it.
Or yes look at getting a suzuki sierra, or something, because they never break down
#22: Re: 206 APF and catalytic converter Fault Author: bisphenol-a, Location: AntarcticaPosted: Thu Jul 21, 2011 10:12 am ---- naww i mean i need a tow truck. i wouldnt dare drive with such lights on. is it even encouraged?
