Common problems and easy repairs on a 2005 407

The 2005 Peugeot 407 SW is an easy car to maintain, but it has its set of challenges. Accessing the front fog light may be a problem as a portion of the wheel well lining will need to be pried back in order to reach it. Meanwhile, multiple fasteners and the housing itself will need to be disengaged to access any of the tail lights, which won’t allow for reliable bulb changes. The engine air filter has cramped access that requires tools to disengage it, which will make for a rather tedious repair.

However, the 2005 Peugeot 407 SW has many upsides. The other headlights can be accessed by simply reaching behind their bulb housings, allowing for reliable bulb changes. The power steering fluid reservoir can be monitored without a problem, given its cap’s open access. The front and rear wiper blades can be easily removed with just your hands.
