Have you tried just pushing it once? Just in case it deadlocks on the first push and the second de-activates it? Yep 207cc is spot on to be honest, I loved the 206cc and the 207cc improves lots of things. I'd fault it on the doors being too long making it hard to get in and out if someone parks too ...

You shouldn't be able to open the door from t he inside if it's deadlocked, correct. The alarm switch on the dash is I recall just to de-activate the ultrasonic part of the alarm so you can set the alarm (roof up) and leave a window slightly open or something. I just mentioned the double-push becaus...

I've moved onto a 207cc but I recall to deadlock don't you press the lock button twice? It's either twice to deadlock, or twice to lock but not deadlock! Personally though I think you're mad to leave the roof down and unattend the car, better safe than sorry for the half minute it takes to roof-up a...

Out of warranty maybe, but Sale and Supply of Goods Act 1994 applies for stuff that fails earlier than you would reasonably expect it to. You have up to six years to bring such cases to court. Have a google around see if you can find others affected and read up on it, if you involved the meeja in so...

I bought this unit in 2003 for my 206cc SE and took it out when I sold, have just got around to listing it on ebay. Fitted in a few minutes to a CPU cable in the boot, it gives you one-touch opening and closing of the roof instead of having to hold the button in, and the speed at which you can move ...

> bugger all acceleration until you hit 1500rpm. I had to re-read this thread to check what I'd written, I think I'm correcting myself by saying it's 2500rpm and not 1500rpm. It is a different driving style now. I find you have to pull away at 2500rpm and hold it there by slipping the clutch so the ...

I spotted this in a newsgroup, it's for a 307 but it might be of some use? I have to be honest I don't think mine does anything if you press this button in but you never know. Subject: Re: Bloody Beeping From: "Steve Parker" <steven.parker.NOSPAM@ntlworld.com> Newsgroups: alt.autos.peugeot...

It's a pull thing - I think it's just there to restore the trim which pops out behind the hoops. There are some pictures in this thread of it on my 206cc, you push it into the hole just to keep it in place or it can hang down.

I think the dealer may be your only solution - I would like both the electric windows to automatically roll fully up - neither do this. At least on the 206cc you could one touch up the drivers side window! If it weren't mux wired I'm sure the removal would be quite simple, but I expect the same soun...

I had a look in the manual I have but it mentions it only in context of the cruise control which is operated with a separate stalk on the left hand side (looks like the radio remote control you have on the right). It shows an icon appears above the trip distance recorder with the set speed on it. It...

I was hoping a software change might help out at the low end, I found I used to pull away as I would have done in the 2.0L engine and there's bugger all acceleration until you hit 1500rpm. Sometimes the acceleration is pitiful (usually when you most need it!) but sometimes it's ok, I tend to drive a...

I had this once, I put in a fiver from an expensive station just to get me to work and on the way back the thing was still complaining, so I put another fiver in and it jumped up as though I'd put a tenner in! Try and fill it up a bit more otherwise a trip to the garage should sort out the sensor an...

I had an 03 and the roof didn't leak on that either, however because there was no sill for the accumulated water to run into from the roof, when you opened the door, it did drip onto the seats and the person getting out! Later 206cc's had an additional trim fitted to make roof water run down the fro...

The button does what should happen automatically when the roof is down, it disables the ultrasonic alarm but leaves the contacts doors, boot and bonnet active. They say it's so you can leave pets in the car without their movement setting it off but unless you leave a window down a bit that's hardly ...

Yes I thought about that one too but I think you have to not only keep confirming you're willing to be tracked from the car mobile, but also pay an on-going subscription too :( Plus all those mobile tracing things are only vaguely accurate depending on the location and how many cell towers can be se...
