Strange Noise...

Since yesterday, after several activities, there is now a noise coming from the rear left (passenger) side. It appears to be from the sliding door, but it could also be from further behind. It is a kind of resonance vibration, which starts around 40mph, but then also remains at lower speeds.

I did check several things to get rid of this noise, without success: removed the battery box, removed a few of the items I had placed in various locations. I suspect it comes from the wooden frame for the sofa/bed: the cover boards on top appear a bit out of shape, bent, and they do not sit very tightly on the frame. My next measure will be to put some kind of dampening there. Hopefully this goes away, because this noise is quite annoying.

Major Repair: Injector #2

I left MrPercy for a few days at the garage for identifying the cause of the engine noise. David suggested it could be the camshaft. But after some investigation, it turned out that it was one of the injectors. The same problem had occurred with the Peugeot Expert also in other instances, as documented by several YouTube videos, for example that one below.



After injector #2 had been replaced in the shop, the engine again ran smoothly and quietly.
