Oil and Oil Filter, Fuel Filter, and Cabin Filter Replacement
Model: Peugeot 406
MK 1
- Years 1995-2005
Open the front bonnet and ensure it is securely supported.
Unscrew the fastening nuts of the engine cover and remove it. Lift the vehicle on appropriate axle stands, position a suitable container (approximately 5 litres) under the oil sump, and unscrew the plug (located at the rear right of the sump) to allow the old oil to drain out. Access the oil filter from the engine bay, centrally located near the alternator: unscrew it with a metal strap wrench and replace it with a new one after coating the seal with oil (do not exceed the specified torque). Replace the copper seal of the oil plug and refit it, tightening adequately. Fill the engine with new oil according to the SAE specifications and quantities indicated in the user and maintenance manual. Disconnect the connector attached to the fuel filter plug and unscrew the plug to remove the old filter (cartridge type) and insert the new one: screw the plug back on after replacing the supplied o-ring seal with the filter; reconnect the connector. Unscrew the fastening screws of the air filter container cap, lift it, and remove the old filter (do not spray cleaner into the intake pipe: excessive residue could damage the engine; instead, disassemble the EGR valve and intake manifold for proper cleaning). Then insert the new air filter and screw the cap back on. Remove the plastic cover just below the windscreen to access the cabin air filter container: remove the old filter, insert the new one respecting the airflow direction, and reattach the plastic cover.
