Hi all, soon to be picking up my 2.0 hdi 306. Going from an MG ZR 160 to one of these should be interesting and definitely more economical lol.
The only mod on the car so far is a powerflow exhaust other than black gti 6 wheels. Never been a great fan of French cars after owning a T reg Saxo vtr but this is very clean and looking forward to driving a diesel again Smile

Welcome to the forum. Smile

Get some pics up when you can, and maybe a project thread if you've got many plans for the car?

I'll be doing the odd mod to it but I've got a kiddy on the way and the missus doesn't want me to have a mega modded car like before haha. Main plan is a remap and possibly a decat. How much louder would. Decat mate the car? The powerflow that's on it I'm not sure how far forward it goes lol but gives a nice subtle noise Smile

If the speedo intermittently stops, it just needs a new speed sensor (VSS). Common fault on these Wink

Take it that just screws into the gearbox with a 3 pun connector in? Or something similar?

Correct. Its a bit of a pain to get to. White sensor on the diff housing. 3 pin plug and a single M6 bolt. Simple if you can get your hand down there with a small ratchet.
