slm friends I think it will be more analytical if only 307 people write.

Let me state that I feel that my steering wheel gets heavier.
There is also a situation that caught my attention since I bought the vehicle (something that moves right in front of the vehicle when I turn the steering wheel right or left, of course, when I turn it where I stand)


Today, I got on a diesel 307 vehicle and it turns both very easily and did not move in front of it. Is there any problem after this?

the hydraulic oil level stands in the middle of the bar, obviously too much additions are made during maintenance.

what could be your thoughts and suggestions? Is it something you have or is it a problem?

the first thing you should look is tire pressure. It will notice if the pressure is low. Although the factory data is high, it is usually underprinted in our country. Make tire pressure 32 and try. After all, there is a low tendency to air in our country.

The first thing that came to my mind was air pressure, but unfortunately. I made 38 front and pressed in the back standard, 36 printed.

nothing changed.

First of all, your tire pressures are not comfortable and safe at all. All four tires are 30 or 32 psi. I suggest you do.
As for the steering wheel hardening; The steering of the 307s is already a bit stiff by nature. To soften this, it is not right to press too much air into the tire.
There may be several reasons for this: The oil may be old. Steering knuckle shaft, d. box, d. pump, tie rods and tie rods, whether they move smoothly, what kind of oil does it make when it sounds right or left, whistling and whistling sound should be checked. Even the rubber quality of the tires you use, air and road surface are effective.

My teacher tire pressure was pressed according to the standards, that is, the values given according to the tire size. 195/65/15 (36 psi) I just slightly increased it because I had a feeling of hardening 38 psi . nothing changed.

When I bought the vehicle, the expert did undercarriage control and was told that there was no problem. vehicle will be 5/6 months

When it comes to hydraulic oil, it has been added because the oil rate is too much crossing the indicator strip of the bar, almost half of the bar. looks clean when it looks at the oil. (I don't think it will make much difference)

There is no gap in the steering wheel and it moves into action at a click. Let me explain the hydraulic pump as follows. When turning the steering wheel, the very thin room can be heard by turning the steering wheel where the car stops, the sound is not heard when vizz is in motion.

Note: There is a cover on the steering wheel, there is a little difference, for example, when you remove the cover, it feels like it turns more easily. But it is a fact that the steering wheel of the diesel vehicle I ride today was better than mine, it turned more comfortably, if the diesel hydraulic pump of the 307s is different then the job will change.

The problem prospered Smile

The only solution to my problem was the peugeot authorized service.

I went to the service, looked at it, said nothing, said the situation, explained the diesel, it turns a little more easily, and all he said was; 1.4 Is this gasoline yes I said gasoline and diesel are different because of its structure.

He said to the sound event, since the vizz sound comes to an end, if it is broken, there will be humming buzz and the sound will disturb you.

friends, I'm a little different, I won't get a click on my car, I'm going to be in trouble Big smile

I think it is a matter of tires that the diesel car turns more comfortably. It may be better than your tire. It was a little irrelevant to me, frankly, by what Servis said.

Unfortunately, I am the same, but a bad feature is already telling you. Because our vehicles are close to 10 years old and if it is past, there may be some troubles, noises etc. from one side. I am trying not to hear it anymore, I decided not to take the parts for repair until it breaks down. I find out later that there was nothing, the temperament of the car was like this :)

How can the tires get 8 months old?

After looking at the service, I went to the place facing another peugeot car so that I could feel comfortable, he took the room, took the left and right in an empty space, said that there was no problem. You know, these guys are hungry, why shouldn't they make money?

My only complaint from my steering pump was that it was heavier like the megan 2 steering wheel when it came to passing the diesel, which was more comfortable. (we are like this, we want everything good, my previous car had the steering wheel like uno 70s 96 model piles now this is hydraulic or so why am I looking for it like this LOL ) Trainings I have to mention the service because they are dealing with thousands of our cars.

unfortunately, thank god you know you got into the steering gear, we love it, stay a little hard and get mine smoothly Smile my advice to you alone is a serious problem, i wouldn't recommend you wait on the way to the hammer 200/300 + parts + labor + disgrace = death-cruelty Big smile I would make it go 100/200, but I wouldn't mind. You know the piece, it has more expense, you can manage it less. of course there is a difference from track to piece, except for walks.

I like the hardness of that steering. There was a previous one too. I have a 2011 premium 308 in my friend. Even he says mine is even soft. At high speeds that I'm really nervous is that it softens. However, it must harden on the contrary. Unless it is like a pile, there is no problem. Love your car with its unique structure Smile

I used 2 different gasoline 307, one was automatic and the other was manual. I was very pleased they weren't so heavy off the wheel. There was 1.4 diesel in his son and his steering wheel was the same. Maybe I don't know. The tires may be new, but the quality of the dough is soft and the other hard is what I meant. Anyway it's nice to have no problem :)))

Steering stiffness gives confidence as you say. In terms of softness, it is not so hard, of course, you can easily turn it with one hand, but when the diesel is softer, I doubt that there is a problem with ours. Big smile
