I have taken our 2005 Boxer to the local Peugeot dealer for a cam belt change today. Surprisingly they were the cheapest of the three quotes (£275) After about three quarters of an hour I had a phone call. The service man said that during a routine health check they have discovered two problems. The first was that the brakes are binding. I have put that down to the fact that the motor home hasn't been moved for a month. The second is oil coming from the engine breather. Now we bought the van last August from a south Devon dealer that turned out to have a bad reputation for after sales service ( Amazing how you find out these things after the event) It was only some time later that I realized an icon on the dash was telling me that they had over filled with oil. We went straight around and insisted that they sort it out there and then which they did. So is today's revelation a consequence of that over filling. The Pug dealer has put a amber warning on the fault (Their words) and quoted over a hundred quid to put it right. I am minded to have a go at it my self. Also I presume that the brake binding will go with use. I think it is rust on the disks and drums.
