Peugeot's best ever car: The seats are very comfortable, and it sweeps along the road with Gallic pride. Mine lasted 500k km of hard duty, enduring everything from the Spanish summer oven to alpine adventures and frozen Finnish winters, before I was forced to scrap it owing to lack of spares. All the plastic parts in the interior were disintegrating, and impossible to replace. Fuel consumption was about 4.8 l/100 km; motor oil loss was almost zero, and no visible smoke. It would start at -30 C, climb mountains, and tow a trailer-load of building materials without difficulty. Maintenance is cheap and simple.
My dad had 3 of these while I was growing up. His last one lasted until 450k. Then he bought a 306, 308 and so on. And with every newer car he missed his old 405 harder and harder. His work horse haha. I can even remember that one time he transported a gearbox in the trunk which fell over. The car smelt so bad for like 6 months, but my dad couldn't care less

110 km/h @ 2250 rpm? Not bad! Are the readings correct? From which car/engine does the BE3 gearbox come? My 405 1.9D from 1995 was great for cruising at villages, not so much at motorway, I think it had like 3000 rpm at 100 km/h, not sure anymore? Cheers! Good video! What did you record with? I'd like to record some POV drives of my old shitboxes too :D
@erdeinet2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! The readings are 100% correct.The gearbox is the 405 diesel gearbox with final drive from 205 diesel. This gives the longest final drive ratio. I use GoPro Hero8 usually

Great car. The 1.9 XUD looks weedy on paper, but it's a proper little goer! Far better than Mercedes's OM601. Look after it.

Bonjour, très belle voiture la 405 , j'aimerais savoir est ce qu'elle est fiable ? pour partir entre les villes etc.. Genre est ce que à n'importe quel moment t'as une pièce defectueuse etc.. Mercii
@Pepe-Tropical Жыл бұрын
J'ai eu 2 405 , une essence et une diesel. C'est des voitures très fiable, pour un long trajet j'ai plus confiance en une 405 qu'à une voiture moderne

I had a 405 GLD with a turbo diesel gearbox. Engine sat at 2000rpm at 80kph and could hold somewhat ok on even roads. Is it still drivable with such high gears? 2000rpm at 100kph seems way too much for that engine. o_o

Why your gear shift is like that? You are going from second gear directly to 4 th gear

There’s something broken in your exhaust system - that’s not what it should sound when in proper condition.
@erdeinet Жыл бұрын
I can guarantee that nothing is broken since I replaced every piece myself for a new one. There are different sounds for different variants with EGR and without EGR, as the intake manifolds differ. The same engine (only with EGR) sounds quite different in my 205.
