pins

Well door pins on a pug 405, do they unscrew or just hammer out and
hammer new ones in.cant even look in the haynes book as i have lost it .

 

Just checked the 406 Haynes manual, in case they are similar, but it doesn't
mention hinge pins. It says to replace the entire hinge if there is
excessive wear detected. The hinge bolts to both the door and pillar.

 

Haynes says the hinge pins drive out on a 405.

Thanks for the reply, but your book must be out of date, as i have
found out that they both unscrew out but do not hammer out which i was
going to do.and that info came from a peugeot garage.(well they might
be wrong)

 

Perish the thought ;o)

 

Well, it is known in some circles as the Book of Lies. Good luck with them
whichever way they come out.

i think i am going to need it they look well and stuck in.

 

Just a thought Chris. If the hinges themselves bolt to door and pillar as
on the 406 it might be easier to remove them and the drive out (or unscrew)
the pins on the bench. Make sure you carefully mark the positions on door
and pillar first if you do this so that the door goes back in the same
position, otherwise you will be adjusting up, down, in and out for hours.
