Joe Ernest Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 Hi, The XD3T(E?) in my 1986 505 SW TD has an air flow meter attached to the air filter box, with electrical connections. The mechanic is quite surprised and puzzled by the presence of electronics on what appeared to be a plain old IDI turbo-diesel engine. He is ferreting around above the glove box to see if there is some kind of ECU under there. His Mitchell Technical Manual has very limited info on the 505. He has asked me to get information on the system and electronics on the engine so he can trouble shoot and repair as needed. Somewhere on this site there was a mention of a Rotodiesel VE electronic system with AFM, accelerator pedal electronics, on the 1987 505 GLS TD, but that's all I found. Can anyone share information on this system/electronics? Or point me to where I might find it? Thank you for your help .............

SRDT Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 It could be the Bosch VP15 system. http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com/classic/AIDE/8505/FB/G1/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bean Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 I'll take a look at mine to see if I can see if mine is hooked up. I thought it was odd as well on my car since it's a mechanical system, but it might have to do with EGR or possibly warm up? Now I'm curious! Haha.

wadehilts Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 My friend has an 85 XD3T 505 sedan and he simply disconnects that AFM. All of the electrical crap hooked up to the engine was purely for emissions and can be removed without any issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
