Can’t say I recall this being done to mine. Unless
you have been using fuel of suspect quality I wouldn’t worry. I’ve
also heard that biodiesel can cause gunk to build up so it may be an idea if
you’ve been using it.
I insisted on the oil being changed at the initial 10,000km
inspection on mine and again at 20,000km. I had some (noticeable not disastrous)
oil consumption in the first 10,000 on mine but it settled down after
that. There is a definite “running in” period with these
engines. My fuel consumption improved noticeably after the first 10,000
also.

I have a 2ltr HDI and is going in for the first service. at 17000km
(Without any oil consumption problems.)
The service centre want to do a fuel system service, I can't find this
service mentioned in the service requirements
My thinking its an after sales push which will cost $240 extra on the
service cost.
Any thoughts on this and is it required ?
Mentioned it gets rid of the gunk which builds up within the fuel lines. .
If this is so then Peugeot should have included this with the service
and in the service schedules.

The AL4 is not an Aisin box, it was developed between PSA, Renault (where it is called the DP0) and Siemens. The 6 speed auto in the 2L diesels is an Aisin box...
