    I'ts a 2006 model and I've had it for 2 years.
    In that time the tyre sensors have bust 3 times, had to change headlights 4/5 times, various electronics failing in the car.
    Is this typical Peugeot or did I just buy a dud?
    Time to get rid..

    Your problems don't sound major, headlight bulbs, wtf?

    But I will say this, driving around, whenever I see a car with obviously faulty electrics, i.e. indicators coming on with brake lights, 9 times out of ten it's a french make, renault in particular, just something I've noticed

    Same headlights going though... Elecs telling me the abs brakes are not working!! Tyre sensors constantly on the blink.
    I think I will be saying 'non' to the next french cars that idles past me.

    you can get your tyre sensors deactivated for good using peugeot planet diagnostics,the abs is probably down to a faulty speed sensor but would have to be diagnosed to confirm where the problem lies and with your bulb issue it might be worth trying a different brand such as hella.
    hope this helps.

    There is a service news that have to replace one wire in case front H7 bulb blowing off all the time
    Go back and ask them to check Peugeot Service news and replace

    For ABS problems: it is mainly wheel speed sensor related
