Good day to everyone. I just registered for you. I realized that my right front shock absorber exploded within 2-3 days. Today, while driving on the road, the vehicle cut off the gas by turning on the malfunction lamp. When I tried to go for a while, the cycle did not increase. After stopping and starting several times, the vehicle was reinstated and the fault light went out. When I went to the diamond authorized service (paperhouse), he told me that the right-left shock absorbers should change together. He said that the malfunction was caused by the accelerator pedal and the accelerator pedal and its installation should be changed. For these, 2150 TL has included an all-inclusive price. Now, I would like to ask you to help you to see if the shock absorber replacement does any harm to the car and to offer a business in Istanbul (preferably maslak auto industry) where I can handle these processes cheaper and nicer. Thanks in advance ...

replacing one shock absorber does not bother, of course, if the other is intact. They said how much money to change the gas pedal completely because they are

right shock absorber 340

Left shock absorber 340

Accelerator pedal electronics 1150

Workmanship 600 TL

Due to the position of the vehicle and the load of the vehicle, the front and rear cannot be shared equally, but the load on both the front and rear wheels is distributed equally to the right and left wheels. It is one of the duties of the suspension system to maintain this equation in flat driving conditions and to change the distribution of this weight under varying conditions such as when the vehicle enters the corner. For this reason, it is recommended to replace the parts that have failed to perform their duties due to time-based deformation, while the parts that have failed due to production errors in a short time can be replaced individually as their equivalents are in a new condition.

There are 2 potentiometers in the accelerator pedal sensors. The ECU measures the instantaneous value of these two variable resistors and decides the position of the pedal. If the values read from one of these are not within the normal limits, that is, if there is a malfunction, the warning light is turned on and the log is recorded, but the normal operation of the vehicle is ensured by using the data produced by the other resistive. If both pots are faulty, the engine is operated at a constant speed, such as 1500, which, if low, allows the vehicle to go to service.

The parts called potentiometers / trimpots are the same as the part that adjusts the sound by moving linearly to the left and right in the old radios and turning them in a new circle. Its structure is made of carbon (such as one (or 2) with the end out of the resistance). It consists of a conductive part, the end of which is moved out on a fixed material. The unwanted crackling / crackling / noise that is heard when turning the sound on and off in old radios, that is , the contamination / non-contact between the fixed carbon and the moving conductor, is what causes the APP position sensor malfunction in the accelerator pedal.

Instead of paying a high figure of 1150 TL, it is useful to take it to an electronics shop and have it cleaned, or if it is available to you, you can clean it yourself by using oil-free contact spray. However, if the fixed carbon material and / or moving conductor is worn, you have to replace it, but I recommend you to get a price from another place. The other issue is that it is an unreasonable action to change both the pedal and the installation, the problem is either in the sensor or in the installation or sockets, it is not uncommon for both to be problematic.

Thank you very much for your reply @HasGur. I do not know if it is related to what you say, but the friend at the service is making interference with the accelerator pedal, he said. After 2 days, this problem will continue.
He said he could be 5 months later. He said that for the shock absorbers, the original old-style shock absorbers were at the factory and now there are new shock absorbers that were improved in the peugeot service, so two of them had to change. That is why I asked the shock absorbers that will change for the first time in 90 thousand km at the moment. Thanks again for your answer. So is there a service you can repair? If you are in Istanbul

We need to investigate the problem of the accelerator pedal well. What does the parasite mean?
The installation is not so easy, 4 or 5 cables come to the gas pedal, but this harness does not go directly, it merges with a few bundles. First, they should check the connections of the accelerator pedal from the sky. If the connection is OK, then focus on the accelerator pedal.

I have a 1601cw pedal in my hand. 301 is out of my car. If the problem is on the pedal, I will help with the pedal.

My teacher, what is the latest situation, did the gas pedal change solve the problem?
