Couple of answers re. this fault
Hello there your Auto Gearbox has An electronic counter built into the ECU which needs to be reset when the oil is changed. It is possible it reqs a Auto gearbox service.
And it is something that can only be done by the dealers to reset it becouse you have to set the level at 60 degrees and use the DIAG 2000 computer .
Just remembered there is a Download to eliminate a problem for this as well.
Your best bet is contact your local dealer.
The gearbox is either an AL4 or 4HP 20 sorry its been 4 Years since i worked at Peugeot

Assuming the gear box is an AL4 it is going into limp home mode. This could be caused by many things but one of them is that an oil change is needed. The box has a sensor that tells the ECU when the oil needs changing. I gather that the oil should be good for about 120,000 miles. Anyone could change the oil but the ECU must also be reset which is probably a trip to peugeot. If anyone other than peugeot changes the oil make sure the correct one is used. Ordinary ATF won't do - buy the right oil from your dealer.

two new pressure modulation valves, a pressure sensor and download normally does the trick.Unless its already been carried out!!
