Peugeot 206: problems with the brakes, automatic gearbox, and other common faults

Table of Contents

  1. Peugeot 206: common problems

Looking for answers to your Peugeot 206 maintenance troubles? This guide will help you to spot common faults and find out how to solve them.

Peugeot 206: common problems

Peugeot 206 automatic gearbox problems

You may find that the automatic gears are slipping or not engaging correctly. If so, it is standard protocol to check the transmission fluid levels, the torque converter and clutch assembly, and the transmission bands and solenoid. Car owners make the common mistake of not regularly checking or servicing the transmission fluid.

Peugeot 206 brake problems

Like with any model, the brake system components will start to wear eventually. Some drivers report that the rear brakes stick, causing the vehicle to one side when braking, as well as uneven brake pad or disc wear. If your Peugeot 206 brake pads or discs are heavily or unevenly worn as a result, they should be replaced in pairs.

The Peugeot 206 brake caliper can get stuck for a variety of reasons, including exposure to moisture, dirt and debris, and seal deterioration. This can be prevented with regular maintenance and routine inspections of the braking system. It is advised to replace or clean the parts as soon as you have a clear diagnosis.

Peugeot 206 engine mount problems

If your Peugeot is shaking or juddering while idling, you may be experiencing engine mount problems. This is particularly common for models with a 1.5 litre engine. When the mounts go bad, the motor is less secure and unable to absorb vibrations effectively. Fixing the mounts quickly is key to preventing accelerated wear.

Peugeot 206 rear suspension problems

For example, the primary warning sign of a worn suspension is that the rear of the car hangs too low. In this case, the obvious culprits would be worn shocks and struts or weakened suspension springs. This will prevent the system from supporting the car properly, causing it to droop. Another common cause is overloading the vehicle.

Peugeot 206 coil pack problems

For example, you may notice that the engine revs are erratic with sharp rises or drops in RPM when driving. Other signs of faulty ignition coils include engine misfires, intermittent exhaust smoke, an illuminated check engine light, frequent stalling, and starting difficulties. If this is your car, then it may be time to install a new Peugeot 206 coil pack.

Leaking footwells

If your floor mats and carpet in the front footwells are getting wet as a result of a leak, don’t panic. These water leaks are normally caused by a blocked bulkhead drain. It may become clogged with dirt and debris or leaves. Simply removing the blockage should stop the leak. Don’t forget to dry out the interior and mats to stop the car from getting damp.

Fuel leaks

The fuel tank, hoses and injectors can get clogged, damaged or punctured over time. This usually leads to fuel leaks, identified by a strong petrol/diesel odour, poor fuel economy, and deteriorated engine performance. If you suspect that your car has a leak, it is recommended to get it fixed asap to reduce the risk of a fire. To replace the damaged components yourself, check out the wide range of Peugeot 206 spare parts online.

Over the years, the manufacturer has issued a few recalls concerning fuel leaks. The first in the UK was in 2000 as a result of a leaking fuel filter. Two others followed: one in 2005 due to a defective diesel return pipe and one in 2008 concerning the fuel pipe.
