I found that the metal rod could also slip out of the levers and jam so had to rebend it slightly to prevent that from happening. Some sort of clip to keep it in place would not have been a bad idea. Once the plastic hole in the lever gets worn it can jump out more often too.

Sounds like thermostat is stuck open

On the thermostat housing iirc. Right hand end of engine as you look at engine bay.

I made the mistake of buying some Eibach discs from ECP .. didn't last 18 months!!

Which plugs? NGK do not work properly with some coil packs ... search on here for the bad combination.
I think it's the Sagem and NGK plugs that gives the trouble


NGK plugs have resistors which means the coil pack doesn't work properly.

Highly likely these are the same on other 206s so breakers might be an option

Our switch died once .. can't remember if it "pinged" though

Hello guys.. I just recent bought a Peugeot 206 1.6 cc.. I had many cars and most of them was peugeot..

Didn't spot the rear bit so ignore the gti reference. Rear arms are all same. Although a bigger pita to replace I understand.

Watch the suspension arm .. it may be wise to change it sooner rather than later. Our 206 had one where the ball joint came out of the arm .. which isn't the greatest way to arrive in an Esso petrol forecourt!! Pretty excessive negative camber too!! And the arms are the GTI version .. fit standard o...

Surely you only need a simple key if the boot has a different lock?

They do tend to be more expensive ..

My Alfa 156 had 205/55/R16s and they were always a lot cheaper than the CCs 45 profiles. And more choice.

Make sure that they look at the small rod that operates the lock ... it is simply pushed through a hole in a plastic arm on the lock barrel and has a small clip to hold it in place .. so when unlocked and you push the barrel in, the arm is pushed (or pulled) to operate the rod and the lock ... Excep...

You got the immobiliser chips for the keys?

I did try adding a 2nd remote key to our CC but failed .. and was then told it had to be a new "virgin" key as you cannot re-programme an old one ..

Bet the operating rod has come off .. ours did once.

But gentle 'whiggling'and nudging opened ours ... but I think it was down to pure luck. I don't have any real clever suggestions ...
