2004 1.6 petrol

Post by 206inthesun »

Hi everyone.

Brand new to the forum, we have a 206cc which we have had for sometime and at the moment its causing a few issues seemingly all related.

It can be driving fine one minute then the next, seems like theres a lack of power swiftly followed by the anti pollution warning and catalytic converter one. Car then struggles to accelerate at all :(

What does not help is we live in France (wahooo home of peugeot, that would help you'd think :no: ) So far the local garage have changed the plugs ( even the new ones seem to have a white coating on them) the oxygen sensor has been changed too.....

Father in law and I have checked the fuel pump (hidden under the rear seats) and all seems fine....

Wonder if anyone could share any information as to what the problem might be?

Thanks for any help and advice in advance :love-thx:

I suspect it is the front oxygen sensor.

Agreed - I would try that first.

Oh and don't mix NGK resistor plugs with Sagem coil packs ..
