Hello all,

I have a 2012 3008 turbo petrol 1.6, it has been to the mechanic a few times now with an intermittent miss and engine light on. The mechanic has replaced all the coils and plugs but it still play up fairly regularly engine light on all the time now, I now it can be hard to fix these problems but don't like spending money on things not causing the problem. Last time he looked at (He has had four goes at it so far) I asked for the codes.
P1338 Combustion misfiring(impact on catalytic converter) cylinder undetermined (permanent)
P1338 Combustion misfiring(impact on catalytic converter) cylinder 2 intermittent.
P0087 Fuel Circuit- Pressure measured in injection rail lower than setting.
P1340 Cylinder misfire.
He thinks it's more of a mixture fuel problem, so if anybody has come across this any help would be appreciated, I must point out it's more of a problem when cold and gets better when hot, Thanks in advance.

I have P1340 as camshaft position sensor B circuit malfuntion

Maybe checkout the camshaft sensor.

That's a little strange, I am only going on what he told me.

Hello, jose1036,

Yes it got fixed, we replaced the high-pressure fuel pump on the side of the head and it going fine now (The Same motor as a Mini and they have problems with their pumps).
If you need a pump don't by it from Peugeot there is a guy called Pug Parts who sells the original part for the fraction of the Price.

Hello Brett, I just realized about this pump. I did some testing and notice that the pressure drops when trying to accelerate. Other question, did you also inspected the in tank pump? Somebody stated that the in tank pump/filter may fail and cause a damage to the HP pump, due to lack of fuel available. Saludos!

We had replaced the filter in the tank trying to correct the problem, the filter still looked new at 90000km,s.
