Oil Filter Replacement:

At every oil change.

Air Filter Replacement:

Every 30,000 km (18,600 miles) or 24 months.

Fuel Filter Replacement:

Every 30,000 km (18,600 miles) or 24 months for diesel.

Coolant Change:

Every 60,000 km (37,300 miles) or 48 months.

Timing Belt Replacement:

Crucial for HDi engines; typically around 120,000 km (75,000 miles) or 5 years. Consult manual for exact interval and associated component replacement (tensioners, idlers).

Engine Oil:

Likely API CF or ACEA B3/B4 specifications, with a viscosity grade of 5W-40 or 10W-40. Refer to manual for exact PSA approval (e.g., PSA B71 2290 for low SAPS oils with DPF).

Coolant:

Antifreeze/coolant concentrate conforming to PSA standards (e.g., PSA S71 2103) mixed with distilled water (50/50 ratio).

Brake Fluid:

DOT 4

Power Steering Fluid:

ATF Dexron II or III, or specific PSA fluid.

Dpf Clogging:

Diesel Particulate Filter can clog if the vehicle is primarily used for short journeys, preventing adequate regeneration cycles. Requires longer drives or manual regeneration/cleaning.

Egr Valve Issues:

EGR valve can become clogged with carbon deposits, leading to reduced performance and increased emissions.

Suspension Wear:

Common MPV issue: wear in suspension components like ball joints, bushings, and tie rod ends due to vehicle weight and usage.

Electrical Gremlins:

Older PSA vehicles can sometimes suffer from electrical issues related to body control modules, wiring harnesses, or sensor failures.
