Question regarding 2001 model

william · Post by **william** » Sat May 18, 2002 12:56 am

I have a UK 2001 SE-I would have thought it would have came with a trip computer - is this a new addition to the 2002 models? - The screen only tells me the day,date and time and outside temp - is it meant to mention anything else? (sorry for acting like a dumbass!!!):D

My car has a trip computer - where the mileometer is - press the button beside it to get to the trip. and hold it to reset !

Dont people read manuals ?

If your car was manufactured pre September 2001 it will be 2001 model year and likely not have a trip computer. The trip computer was added to 2002 model year vehicles, along with auto headlights and wipers etc.

Hope this helps

Frosty, on this topic, with the waiting time in Oz the length it is, do you know which parts of the process contribute most.

The reason for the question is, let's say you ordered here in June, you might expect to get it say Nov / Dec, depending on specs. If the delay is mostly pre-build, you would probably get a 2003 spec car. But if it's say in the shipping and the build order is quite fast, you'd get a 2002 model.

Any ideas?

hey M275! - I only got a standard 206 manual and have read it from cover to cover (I thought maybe their was a 206cc maual which would have held the answer)
SORRY TO BE AN INCONVENIENCE!!!

William, if your hazzard button in front of the display is split in two (the other half being the central door locking button) then you have the new spec.

To flick through your computer stuff, press the knobbie on the END of the wiper stalk, that'll scroll you through all your data

Will

Chill mate....

Im not sure why you have a normal 206 manual

You should have a CC one - it explains how to manually do the roof and other usefull stuff....

The delays expereinced in getting a CC in Australia is simply a case of supply/demand imbalance. Australia is a relatively small market for Peugeot compared to Europe and accordingly we don't get a huge allocation.

Peugeot Australia however have indicated that they expect supply to improve over the coming months and wait times will be reduced.

what does the trip computer do?

Pauline · Post by **Pauline** » Tue May 21, 2002 7:23 pm

It tells you your...

average mpg

current mpg

miles since last fill up

miles to go to next fill up - which I find really useful once the "fuel low" bell has rung, cos I lay off the right foot and see this figure GO UP as I drive to the petrol station :eek:)

Can't remember if there's anything else???
