FYI the 206 saga ended today - it's a runner again.jasper5 wrote:Dogslife, regarding the 206 misfire problem, has anyone suggested fuel injector problems?
The 206 has a very common fault connected with the injectors....management light comes on, engine misfires/lacks power.
Whenever I get asked to fix one of these (if this is your problem), the solution is remove the injectors and swap them around, eg, 1to 4, 2 to 3 etc.
This fix has never failed...I learned this fix from a mobile tuner friend of mine, I had the fault on a customer's car, did all the usual, coil pack etc.
The management light goes out after a couple of days driving, or have it reset.
The 206 also suffers from bad earthing problems, giving all sorts of weird problems.
Repaired by elder daughter's boyfriend, (who owns a small garage business).
It's had: 1 injector, set of plugs, coil pack, ecu repair
