7. Extends the service life of the Peugeot catalyst, lambda probe, spark plugs and Peugeot fuel injectors.
Peugeot ACTIVATOR reduces fuel consumption by 20%.
At the same time, the engine operation of Peugeot is significantly improved.
Examples of installation on different models of Peugeot.
ANY FUEL (petrol, diesel, gas), by going through 10 magnetic fields of THESE ACTIVATORS, for a short time changes its structure and properties, and it BURNS more fully and REGULARLY.
Due to this, the Peugeot engine begins to work much BETTER.
Usually, it is already seen after 10-20 km of run of the car Peugeot which has an installed Activator.
Imagine, how your Peugeot engine works with VERY GOOD FUEL …
That is, we have quite different (better) fuel.
You agree that chopped firewood burns much better than whole logs … The same thing happens with automotive fuel in the cylinders of the Peugeot engine.
Activators installed on Peugeot reduce the density and viscosity of fuel:
1. This leads to the formation of smaller fuel particles, ensures good atomization and combustion in the cylinders of the Peugeot engine.
2. The fuel ignites better and burns smoothly, ensuring soft and smokeless operation of the Peugeot engine.
3. Reduces deposits on injectors and carbon deposits on candles and Peugeot cylinders.
4. Reduces the load on the operation of Peugeot fuel supply systems.
5. Increases reliability and increases the life of Peugeot fuel equipment.
All this leads to improved conditions for fuel combustion Peugeot cylinders.
FUEL with Activators burns more completely in the Peugeot engine, does not leave carbon deposits on pistons, cylinders and spark plugs.
On Peugeot cars, the injectors are not polluted, and there is no black smoke even at throttling at free running.
Knowing where the fuel hoses are located, Activators at Peugeot are installed within 5 minutes (see «INSTALLATION»)
ATTENTION! The main difference of THESE ACTIVATORS is that there are 20 magnets placed in them, which for a short time CHANGE THE STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF FUEL. In other similar Aktivators which can be used on Peugeot, there are only 2 powerful magnets which are not able to change anything in the fuel (see «ANALOGUES» ).
When you don’t like the Aktivators, then with no doubt you can return them back within 37 days (read «RETURN»).

General tips on how to reduce Peugeot fuel consumption
Peugeot’s fuel consumption has increased. What are the reasons for this?
What makes the engine use more fuel? Do I need to visit a car service in case of increased fuel consumption? What can you check yourself, and what should a specialist check?
Peugeot’s fuel consumption has increased. What are the reasons for this?
Fuel consumption is one of the main, if not the most important, parameters that drivers control. The cost of car maintenance depends on it. Peugeot per month. It should also be remembered that the driver, in the actual operation of the car, will never achieve the results indicated by automakers in their catalogs.
Peugeot’s fuel consumption depends on many factors. Their size is affected by the technical condition of the engine and its equipment, the permeability of the filters, the correct tire air pressure, the quality of the filled fuel, and even the quality of the engine and transmission oil used. Driving a car is a struggle against different resistance: the greater the resistance, the higher the fuel consumption of the Peugeot.
Fuel consumption also depends on the driving style and the terrain the car is traveling through.
Sometimes the increased fuel consumption of a Peugeot is the result of a minor violation, negligent maintenance, or carelessness. Sometimes this may be the result of a component failure. Don’t panic. Let’s look at all the possible reasons for the increased fuel consumption of the Peugeot engine.
Reasons for increased fuel consumption Peugeot
Riding with the air conditioning system turned on – especially in spring and summer, many people use this convenience. But nothing is in vain. Especially on a hot day when the air conditioner is constantly on. How much can the costs increase? From 1 to 2 liters/100 km (approximate data). The smaller the engine, the greater its load due to the running air conditioner. Therefore, small urban cars with low-power engines will be mainly consumed.
Let’s turn off the air conditioner and see if the flow rate drops to normal.
Driving in four-wheel drive (4×4) gear is often the case with owners of fancy off-road vehicles (SUVs), crossovers, and SUVs. 4X4 drive is also available in some limousines. In modern cars, the 4×4 transmission turns on automatically-only if necessary. In other cases, the driver can turn it on himself. It’s worth checking that our engine sometimes doesn’t power four wheels unnecessarily.
Low tire air pressure — even a slight lack of pressure increases Peugeot’s fuel consumption. The lack of air pressure up to 0.2 bar per wheel increases Peugeot’s fuel consumption by at least 1 percent. With a deficit of 0.6 bar, this is already about 4 percent. In one circle.
Currently, new cars are equipped with TPMS tire pressure monitoring systems, which should warn the driver if the tire pressure is too low. The readings of cheap indirect systems (without transmitters using ABS sensor data) are not always accurate. It is enough for the air pressure to drop in two or all tires, and the system will not warn you.
What should I do in this case? Simply check the air pressure in each tire with a pressure gauge and inflate it to the desired level if necessary.
The way the car is used has changed — the car consumes the least amount of fuel when driving on the highway at an economical speed in high gear, for example, 90-100 km/ h in fifth or sixth gear (a compact car with a 1.4 liter engine can consume an average of about 5 liters/100 km). The more trips out of town, the lower the fuel consumption of the Peugeot. If the way the car is operated suddenly changes, for example, if we start driving mainly around the city, the consumption will increase significantly (a compact car with a 1.4 L engine consumes 7-8 liters / 100 km). Peugeot’s fuel consumption is also highest when driving short distances when the engine cannot reach operating temperature. A small city car can consume an average of 10 liters/ 100 km when traveling a distance of 2-3 km.
The situation is reversed for new cars with turbogenerators and reduced-displacement engines. Practice has shown that these higher forces, for example, three-cylinder engines are economical in the city, but consume significantly more fuel when driving dynamically on the highway. The cost can reach 10 liters/100 km.
Additional heavy load on the car or significantly increased drag– Peugeot’s fuel consumption will not increase suddenly if we take an additional passenger with us. But with the maximum load on the car (e.g. in the case of a 420-450 kg compact car), we will definitely see an increase in cost.
We have to put up with higher fuel consumption when we carry a large trunk or a bicycle trunk on the roof. This solution leads to a strong increase in air resistance, which leads to an increase in Peugeot’s fuel consumption.
Increased Peugeot fuel consumption due to negligent maintenance
Sealed air filter-passenger car air intakes are usually located at a height of about 50-70 cm above the road surface. At this altitude, the most dust hovers, in the most polluted regions – up to 50 mg / m3. The purpose of the air filter is to trap this dust so that it does not enter the engine and turbocharger. Filters use paper, cloth, or both to trap dust. And, obviously, they get clogged up quickly. Especially often when operating in the city. A clogged filter makes it difficult for air to enter the engine, which increases Peugeot’s fuel consumption.
It is necessary to change the filter once a year (or once every 15 thousand runs). km). If the filter is heavily soiled, it is worth replacing it.
Additional resistance is due to faulty, outdated engine oil or due to too low an amount of oil in the engine. One of the main functions of engine oil is to reduce the friction of working moving and stationary engine parts. Too little oil in the engine causes more friction. The oil oxidizes and ages, and pollutants accumulate in it. The older and worse the oil in the engine, the more viscous it is and… less effective at high temperatures, which increases the friction and fuel consumption of the Peugeot.
Old transmission oil in the gearbox or incorrectly selected oil– the situation is the same as in the case of engine oil – more resistance.
Worn-out spark plugs also increase Peugeot’s fuel consumption
Spark plugs must be changed in accordance with the recommendations of the car manufacturer (usually every time after 60,000 km).
In cars with an older type of ignition engine, which requires ignition wires (high-voltage wires) — their condition also affects the amount of fuel consumption of the Peugeot. The older the wires, the higher the consumption, as they age and make it difficult to transfer sparks to spark plugs. Copper-core wires are likely to wear out.
Incorrectly defined wheel geometry increases rolling resistance, which leads to increased Peugeot fuel consumption.
The geometry of the wheels may change if you suddenly enter a pothole on the road. It needs to be adjusted once a year and every time the tires are replaced.
Damaged brake system components, e.g., a rusty brake caliper piston.A malfunction usually occurs due to an untimely replacement of the brake fluid. The old fluid loses its anti-corrosion properties and after releasing the brake pedal, the rusty piston does not return to its original position. As a result, during movement, the working surface of the brake pad constantly rubs against the working surface of the brake disc and causes very strong resistance. In extreme cases, the brake pads can become completely stuck and cause a traffic accident. With such a breakdown, the car drives slower and the fuel consumption of the Peugeot increases significantly. In addition, the rim on which the failure occurred heats up very much. Also, when braking, the car may pull to the side.
It is necessary to change the brake fluid every two years.
Increased Peugeot fuel consumption due to malfunctions and damages
Peugeot’s fuel consumption is increasing due to a faulty air conditioning system–although the compressor is driven by a belt drive, the air conditioner’s performance is very low and fuel consumption increases significantly. The cause may be damage to the system, too little cooling gas, a leak and a clogged cabin filter.
Worn-out injectors of modern engines with direct injection systems-one of the signs of their malfunction is the increased fuel consumption of Peugeot. Poor-quality fuel and untimely replacement of the fuel filter may be the cause of rapid wear.
Malfunctions of the fuel injector control unit — the control unit does not calculate the opening time of the injectors well, and as a result, too much fuel enters the cylinders.
The thermostat flap of the cooling system is stuck in the open position. In the event of this malfunction, the coolant immediately enters the radiator when the engine is started. Even after a dozen kilometers, the engine is not able to reach the operating temperature at which Peugeot’s fuel consumption is optimal. The engine uses an oil mixture for a very long time, which significantly increases fuel consumption.
The thermostat costs from 20 euros. It’s easy to change it. In addition, it is necessary to remove the old coolant and fill in a new one.
The coolant temperature sensor is damaged-it outputs incorrect data to the engine control unit of the ECU. If the sensor reports that the cooling temperature is constantly low, the computer increases the fuel dose (a greasy mixture is used to heat the engine).
Prices for sensors depend on the type of vehicle Peugeot and usually start from 8 euros.
Most often, the sensor of a popular car costs several tens of euros.
Damage to the air flow meter is sometimes due to contamination of the sensor (this is due to a poor-quality air filter, but not clogged, but allowing dust to pass through), sometimes due to wear or mechanical damage (wire breakage). The data of the air flow meter installed in the engine intake system is transmitted to the computer. This one selects the required fuel dosage by volume of air. A damaged air flow meter causes, among other things, an increase in Peugeot fuel consumption because the engine uses too greasy a mixture. The «Check engine» indicator lamp indicates a malfunction of the air flow meter.
An air flow meter costs from 30 euros. Before you decide to replace it, you can try cleaning it with a special aerosol cleaner. Replacing the air flow meter is very simple.
Damage or wear of the oxygen sensor. The sensor’s appearance resembles a spark plug. It is installed in the exhaust system (new cars use two sensors). The sensor compares the amount of oxygen in the air with the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gases. The oxygen sensor information is transmitted to the computer. Based on the information received, the computer selects a suitable fuel-air mixture. Damage to the oxygen sensor leads to incorrect mixture selection and a sharp increase in Peugeot fuel consumption. When driving around the city-even by several tens of percent.

The oxygen sensor malfunction is indicated by the «Check engine» warning light.
Damage to the flap position sensor. The sensor transmits information about the flap position to the computer. The main signs of sensor damage are increased fuel consumption of the Peugeot, problems starting the engine, and jerks during sudden acceleration.
Serious violations after a traffic accident. In case of some very serious damage, car service stations cannot restore the full technical performance of the car, as the attachment points of the suspension elements have been shifted. Incorrect mounting affects the operation of the body and wheels and causes additional resistance when driving, which leads to increased fuel consumption of the Peugeot.
What should I do if the fuel consumption of the Peugeot suddenly increases?
If the warning light does not light up, it is necessary to monitor the car by refilling the full fuel tank 2-3 times. If the car continues to consume significantly more fuel than before, you can check all the points described in this article one at a time and try to fix the problem.
If the check engine indicator light comes on, one of the wheels heats up while driving, and various other problems appear that you cannot diagnose yourself, you should visit a car repair shop as soon as possible.
All cars with an internal combustion engine also consume fuel. Diesel fuel or gasoline burns in the combustion chamber of the engine and eventually provides propulsion. However, some drivers believe that the fuel consumption in their car is simply too high.
Especially with rising gasoline prices, topics such as fuel economy are becoming relevant again. And, by the way, Peugeot’s high fuel consumption is, of course, harmful to the climate. So what should you do? In our guide, you will find valuable tips and learn how to save fuel.
What can you do as a driver to reduce Peugeot’s fuel consumption?
Peugeot’s high fuel consumption is often directly related to the driver’s behavior. Before optimizing the operation of the car, the driver must analyze his own behavior. Small changes and tips can sometimes save a lot of fuel.
Driving style is too fast
Riding at high speed
Short-distance work
The weight of the car is too high
Using an air conditioner
The automatic start-stop function is disabled
Adapting to the behavior of the car
Many drivers complain about Peugeot’s high fuel consumption, but at the same time demonstrate a rather frisky driving style. However, the constant powerful acceleration and high revs create stress not only on the transmission and engine. This driving style also increases Peugeot’s fuel consumption.
Similarly, a car consumes much more fuel when driving at high speed. Especially at speeds above 140 km/h, Peugeot’s fuel consumption can increase dramatically. The reason is the high air resistance, which slows down movement.
Short distances and vehicle weight
If the car is often used for short trips, Peugeot’s fuel consumption also increases. This is partly due to the fact that the engine has to inject more fuel when running cold. The oil also does not provide optimal lubrication of the engine when running cold.
Another important tip for saving fuel is to reduce the weight of the car. This by no means requires complex alterations. After all, a driver often carries items with him in the car that he doesn’t need. Therefore, cleaning the trunk helps to save fuel.
Air conditioning and start-stop system
The air conditioner in the car is powered directly from the engine. If the driver uses the air conditioner, the engine needs to be powered. This, in turn, increases the consumption of diesel fuel or gasoline. If the air conditioner turns off more often, it also helps to save fuel.
Many modern cars are equipped with a start-stop system. This automatic system turns off the engine when the car is stationary, for example, at a traffic light or in stop-and-go mode. This annoys some drivers and they turn off the automatic system, but it increases Peugeot’s fuel consumption.
How a car can save fuel
Not always a fast driving style at high revs is the reason that the car consumes too much fuel. Sometimes it’s also related to the car itself. In addition to engine or transmission failure, insufficient maintenance is often a crucial factor leading to fuel overruns.
Maintenance was neglected
The fuel system is not working properly
The tire pressure is not set correctly
Tires increase fuel consumption
No oil change was performed
The air filter is dirty
Lack of maintenance increases Peugeot’s fuel consumption
If the car is rarely serviced or not serviced at all, this can lead to an increase in Peugeot’s fuel consumption. Jammed and clumsy parts increase the resistance that the motor and electrical components have to deal with. This reduces fuel efficiency.
If the fuel system and injection system are not working optimally, the car sometimes consumes more fuel than necessary. This applies to both injection systems with injectors and carburettors. Therefore, the components, as well as all sensors, should be checked once.
Tires and air pressure affect Peugeot’s fuel consumption
Tire pressure also directly affects Peugeot’s fuel consumption. If the tire pressure is too low, not only the cornering performance deteriorates, but the rolling resistance of the tire also increases. Thus, Peugeot’s fuel consumption increases even at slightly low pressure.
The tires themselves can also negatively affect fuel consumption. For example, winter tires can lead to increased fuel consumption in summer due to greater rolling resistance on hot roads. Some tires also lead to increased fuel consumption due to their design. This is indicated on the NYE tires European tire fitting.
Engine oil can also affect Peugeot’s fuel consumption
If it is not changed for a long time, it will no longer provide optimal engine lubrication. In addition, the oil may thicken over time. Sometimes the wrong oil is poured into the engine, which can also worsen engine performance and increase fuel consumption.
One of the little-known tips for saving fuel is to check the air filter. If the air filter is clogged or very dirty, it will be difficult for the power unit to suck in air. It can also cause the car to consume more fuel than necessary.
How can drivers reduce Peugeot’s fuel consumption?
Many drivers are wondering what they can do to use less fuel. If you follow all the tips given in our guide, you will be on the right path to becoming an economical driver. In addition, you should always drive predictably, and in vehicles with manual transmissions, you should switch gears as early as possible to avoid high revs.
Cleaning your car and lightening it can also save a liter or two of fuel in the long run. As for the car itself, regular maintenance is recommended. This not only saves gasoline, but also avoids high repair costs. If you want to use the last percentage of the potential savings, consider replacing the tires with tires with low rolling resistance.
