Peugeot 30082020

Known issues

• Electrical gremlins: interior lighting, door locks, and parking sensors failing intermittently due to poor connector contacts in the BSM (Body Systems Module)
• Timing chain rattle on cold start, particularly in winter, though usually self-resolves when engine warms
• Air conditioning compressor clutch failure leading to loss of cooling, more prevalent after 60k km
• Airbag warning light illuminating intermittently due to faulty seat occupancy sensors
