Hi all my emissions lght on my Peugeot 407 has just come on Before the light come it was making a small whining noise when I turned the ignition off (not the motor) my question is that I am about 150 K from home on holidays and was wondering in general would it be ok to drive the car home in that distance and does anybody here have a rough idea of what the problem could be related to the warning light

Thanks
 
Go to a super cheap auto get the codes scanned and put results here it’s only 20 bucks or so.

Gone but not forgotten C5 x7 3008 206 GTI 180 306 XR SED 405 MI16 x2 xzara VTS 406 SV 206 XT Berlingo 2011 (best car ever) 306 HDI 307 XSE HDI touring
Fix it right the first time
 
Internal whines and hums are usually the heater/AC unit ding its usual business. You don't say which engine, but there are many depollution fault possibilities. Could be lots of things and needs a code read. You might be just blowing diesel crap, or poisoning an expensive catalytic converter.

Take it gently and get it code read.

Edit: pipped to the post. See above.

Sorry my bad 4007 :) diesel 2.0 litre
 
The emissions light is now coming off and on but it did seem to stutter for the first time whilst driving it today,but is driving generally fine with no problems the light did come on but after 5 minutes then went off An interesting note just checked the service logs and the previous owner had a minor service at 78 K but log books stared it should have been a major service could the problem be related to a fuel filter not been serviced for a while ?
