Oxygen sensor
Thermostat housing
Mass air sensor
At total cost of £598.66
I admit, I was a little naive, bought the car 18 months ago and was told it only need servicing every 2 years. I have done a lot more miles than I thought - 20,000 in the past 2 years. Garage tells me the problems are my own fault because I should have had it serviced at 10,000.
Anyway...anyone have any idea what work like this should cost me? Dealership says if I don't get it fixed, I'll have a catastrophic engine failure before too long. Feel stupid!

I pretty much specialize in Peugeots and I can tell you that you are well and truly being ripped off here!
Oxygen Sensor................. £98:40
Mass Airflow Sensor........ £68:40
Thermostat inc Housing... £30:60
Now, that's £197:40 in parts.
Add, say, £15:00 for antifreeze plus no more than an hour's labour for doing the work and you can see what I mean!
Best Wishes.
