What to do if the word "faulty exhaust system" appears on the Peugeot 3008?
Years 2016-2023

Answer

The wording "faulty exhaust system" appears on the Peugeot 3008, and is accompanied by a drop in performance; sometimes it stops altogether. This does not necessarily mean that there is a problem with the FAP, because the system detects this error - for example - even if the hydraulic chain tensioner has insufficient pretension. In these cases it is remedied with an update to the control unit. The best thing in these cases would be to have an OBD2 fault detector, which properly connected to the OBD socket tells us the fault code and informs us about what really happens in our car.
