This could be caused by leaks in the cooling system or heavy acceleration. You should stop the car and allow the engine to cool down. If the issue persists then you should speak to an Peugeot mechanic as soon as possible.

Transponder

This chip contains an unique number that is used as an "password" to open the engine. When you insert the key into your ignition, the chip sends this password to a receiver inside the immobilizer of your car. If the code is correct, your car will start and you'll be off to the races.
If you lose your transponder key, you'll need to visit a trusted locksmith who will replace it. Locksmiths have a special tool to determine the frequency required from the transponder chip in your vehicle and then create a brand new one for you.

The immobiliser reads this code every time the key is put into the ignition to determine if it is synchronised correctly or not. If the chip doesn't have synchronisation, the car won't start and the engine will stop. If this happens, you will be required to visit a Peugeot dealer and get a new key to fit your vehicle.
