On the late bumpers il looks like SIEM units, same as the 205 GTI driving lights. Do you have any pictures of what you're looking for?

8 bit processor and EPROM, impressive for a 80' car.

Do you have more pictures of the inside of this box? Is that the knock module or the one with the curves?

L'aventure Peugeot just started an online store with new old stock and new parts: https://www.pieces-de-rechange-classic.com/fr/ Also this one can get some hard to find NOS: http://www.serie04.com/en/

The big one is for the oil pressure gauge, the small one is for the warning light ; there is also a oil level sensor on the back. I think only the BX GTI / 16 Soupapes used them all with the oil pressure gauge displaying the oil level at each engine start. On the back of the mk1 405 instrument cluster you can see that at some point they planned to use a 4th gauge under the rev counter, they did it later on the T16 and the 306.

MB6 with long diesel final drive vs Mi16 BE3, this way you have a similar long 1st gear and 2nd ins't that bad: With an even longer final drive the 2nd is right and the 1st good enough: Now if you want five usefull ratios try those two: Here is the shortest one: And now VS the BE3/6: This isn't really suited for the XU9J4 engine, it could work with custom pinions for 3/4/5/6 as seen in the first diagrams.

I have some gears and final drive ratios: 19x72, 19x75, 17x73, 17x77 and 17X86 for final drives. Crowns are BE4 parts. 11x38, 21x43, 31x40, 40x39, 46x35, 53x32 gears for the gasoline engine. This is like the old BE "N" set of ratios with a shorter 2nd and 6th added, the Mi16 use the "P-PK": same as the "N" but with a longer 1st like the GTI. If you don't want the 6th to be only an overdrive you need the short 17x86 final drive but then 1st and 2nd are really short.

The chinese version may be more like a regular sedan with no hatch and a longer wheelbase.

Peugeot unveiled the next generation 508: http://int-media.peugeot.com/en/new-peugeot-508-radical-saloon

Turns out it was 9 pin not 8 after all, and here is the mk2 wiring: And this guy did it on a 605, looks like it's the same as the mk1 405 ; or at least the switch is: http://peugeot605.forumeurs.fr/phase-adapter-sequentiel-t386.html

The wiring loom on my 309 is still stock, you could also do it like that on the 405 with a 8 9 pin module but only for the driver side. On the passenger side I even used diodes to find a ground on the switch connector and not having to take it somewere else (when the driver is operating the passenger window there is one wire at 0v and the other at 12v).

Non-drying putty? Here whe call it... "Mastic Américain". Perfect stuff for this job.

The 405 (mk1, mk2) or BX control boxes are 8 9 pin, the extra 2 are for the automatic action with a special switch. The boxes are mesuring the current to stop the motor but only the 6 pin ones can detect a short or a long push and react accordingly. The 8 9 pin boxes are more basic and need more complex switches. On the mk1 405 you can see the automatic part of the switch, on the mk2 it's hidden but still there. Mk1 and mk2 405 boxes are not the same bdw.

You can look for it on the Bosch website, even with only the Peugeot part number: http://www.bosch-automotive-catalog.com/en/product-search http://www.bosch-automotive-catalog.com/en/vehicle-search

The wiring loom isn't the same with automatic window, I don't have it but here is a tutorial in french: http://www.forum-405.com/t21789-tuto-installer-un-leve-vitre-sequentiel-conducteur There is another way to do this, with another PSA control box (Xantia, Partner...) and the regular switch. I did this on my 309 for both front windows. For the passenger side it's the ony easy way to do so. It can also be used in a lot of other cars.

Spring tension is very important as well. Look for "Bosch AFM adjustement" on google.

It's also an opportunity to do what they want with allmost no resistance from the unions. Good guy PSA will do whatever it takes to save the company, nobody whant a new SAAB right? If it works Tavares is a genius and if it doesn't it's all GM's fault.

Compared to steel aluminium act as a heat sink so yes it can make things easier to heat the parts ; that will also reduce internal stress during cooling. Furthermore even after a good wash there may be some oil and moisture trapped inside that the torch will drive out before welding.

Those L-Jetronic AFM are finely tuned for each engine, Peugeot used 1920.34 (Bosch 0280202051), 1920.66 (Bosch 0280202070) and 1920.68 (Bosch 0280202098) on the ZDJL alone depending of the pollution requirements. First thing to do is check which one is yours. Only a Motronic AFM can be used on a wide range of engines as the flap angle vs airflow transfer function is handled by the ECU. Can you post some pictures of the damages?

The early Caravelle (Floride in France) had the Gordini engine from the Dauphine, 40hp SAE at best.

Your spare ecus are all "161" cat ones, if the mapper started with a "355" file and improved it that may make a big difference. The bosch serial number and the firmware release are on the .bin at 0x1F00, very usefull when you find a tuned file and want to compare with the original or simply check if it's really for your engine.

It's a good start but if you can find most of the info scattered on the web, also Optical Character Recognition and google translate could probably do the trick. Remapped and regular "161" binary files could be usefull. I have some info about the XU9J4 bin but I'm still looking for a matching XU9J4Z one ; I think it must exist as I have a XU9JAZ bin with exact same map directory. Speaking of that on the XU9J4 "355" ecu map directory is at 0x6300, rev limiter might be at 0x6155, AFM transfer maps start at 0x6420 with unusual map2. I don't have injector constant, injector dead time or lambda target and I don't know how to delete lambda but a properly tuned ecu and the matching original .bin could probably solve that.

Ok it's in French but this .pdf is about how the ML1.3 Motronic works and not just from a mechanic's point of view, this is far more advanced with actual load calculation and other cool things like cold start or sudden load increase strategy. If you're unfamilliar with the old 8-bit Motronic family and want to fine tune your ECU you should start with this. It's about the XU9JAZ engine but the XU9J4Z just add a knock sensor and an idle valve so the most important stuff is the same. Bosch-Motronic-ML1.3.pdf

No 505 or 504 on Service box, only the old scans from Peugeot classic: http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com/classic/ A few parts may be avaible anyway, you have to ask for the part number even if they don't have the drawing in the system.

Today cadmium is mostly banned for environmental concerns and worker safety, in fact that's also why they offer the greenish chromate conversion coating and not the good old yellow one. Anyway that's true in Europe, I know that even asbestos isn't totally banned today in the U.S. so maybe it really is cadmium.
