Peugeot 3008 2015 1.6 diesel engine warning light with " needs repair" with urea emission warning light

Light wont clear till you rectify the fault .

The garage I went too is a Peugeot Specialist, not a dealer. He said it's the first time he has seen, low pressure Emission Injector, and he's been doing it for 20years. Went to Main dealer and in for diagnosis on the 11th. Need my car as I'm disable and live too far from shops.

Ensure your add blue is topped up,there’s also a 2nd tank on some models contains additive eloys,but the garage would need to do that one as under car,also common for exhaust sensor and it deploys Add blue related code and shut down after so many miles,I’m sure the code description is the sensor,probe in the exhaust,but it’s not cheap.

I can understand your need for the car and the delay in checking is very annoying . That is a long time to wait .l have heard of this being caused by a faulty NOX sensor but only a guess .Is there no diesel specialist local that could maybe look at car earlier and get you back on the road .

There was a safety recall for some Peugeot models last year that cars required a download of new engine management software to correct a calibration that could result in excess NOx emissions.2 Could check with dealership if you did not receive any word if your car was part of this recall or if work has been carried out .

Have checked with the main dealer and they said there was no recall for my car.

Check your VIN with this just to be certain ,
