Experiencing start-up issues with your Peugeot Partner from the years 2008 to 2018 can be both frustrating and puzzling. As a seasoned UK-based master tech mechanic with over 15 years in the field, I have encountered a myriad of reasons why your Peugeot might refuse to start. Below, we'll delve into some common causes, symptoms, and the general repair process to help you understand what might be going wrong.
When your Peugeot Partner won’t start, the problem could lie in several areas, ranging from the simple to the complex. A dead battery is one of the most frequent culprits, especially if you notice that the engine doesn’t crank at all. Alternatively, issues could also stem from the starter motor, fuel system, ignition system, or even a faulty engine control unit (ECU). Symptoms accompanying the starting issue could provide clues about the root cause. For instance, if the engine turns over but doesn’t start, this might point towards problems such as a clogged fuel filter or faulty spark plugs. Other symptoms to watch out for include unusual noises when attempting to start the engine, dimming lights on the dashboard, and the overall electrical performance of your van.
The repair process will largely depend on the specific diagnosis. Typically, a comprehensive diagnostic test using advanced tools will be the first step. This can pinpoint areas such as low battery voltage, defective starter components, or fuel delivery issues among others. Following the diagnostics, the repair might involve anything from battery replacement, overhauling the starter system, to more detailed fixes like fuel pump or ignition coil replacements.
While tackling repairs can sometimes be a straightforward option, the costs and time involved can add up, especially for critical components. For owners of a Peugeot Partner (2008 to 2018) that won't start, tossing up between repeated repairs or investing in a new van can be challenging. This is where Vandervan can offer a simpler solution. Why worry about the hassle and expenses that come with repairing an older model when you can sell your current vehicle and potentially upgrade to a newer, more reliable van?

We provide a 30-second online quote, offer next-day collection from anywhere in the UK, and ensure instant payment to the account of your choosing.

Yes, you can indeed sell your financed van with vandervan even if it's under a Hire Purchase (HP) or Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement.
If you decide to sell your financed van, the initial step is to obtain a 'settlement figure' from your lender, which you can usually find in a settlement letter. Following that, get a valuation for your van.
Our team will walk you through the settlement process.
We do not charge any fees. There are no admin charges or anything like that. Just your van, your money, instantly.
By selling your van through our service, you join a robust network of over 4,000 verified dealers.
This can often result in a more favourable price compared to part exchange, where you might find yourself confined to a single dealer’s assessment, which might not accurately represent the real market value of your van.
Part exchanges often result in less favourable outcomes for sellers, particularly if the dealer is not intending to retail your van and plans to pass it along instead.
However, with our van buying service, you stand a better chance of obtaining a great price.
The process with us is quick and straightforward. Simply start with a free valuation and contrast this with your part exchange offer. You might be delighted to find how much more you could get from using our service than you’d get from a part exchange!

We buy any van make or model, and any body type. Get a valuation today and see if we can help you sell your van.
Fortunately, we buy any van even if they do not have a logbook, although it is advantageous if you have a full V5 Logbook, or at least the green New Keeper Slip.
It makes it tougher to sell to our network of 4000+ verified dealers, as we have to wait for the DVLA to process a V62 application (usually 6 weeks), so our valuations reflect the delay in sale and storage costs while rectifying missing V5 logbooks.
