Common Problems: PEUGEOT 206
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Electric Power Steering (EPAS) Column Failure(Serious)
The EPAS column is a well-known failure point on the 206. It can fail completely or intermittently, causing heavy or unpredictable steering. This is dangerous at low speeds and a common complaint.
- Head Gasket Failure (1.4/1.6 Petrols)(Serious)
The 1.4 and 1.6 petrol engines are known for head gasket failures, especially on cars that have been overheated or poorly maintained. Symptoms include coolant loss, white exhaust smoke and overheating.
- Central Locking Actuator Failure(Moderate)
The door lock actuators fail regularly on the 206, leaving doors unable to lock or unlock remotely. The driver's door is typically the first to go.
- Rear Beam Axle Corrosion(Moderate)
The rear beam axle can corrode severely on UK cars, particularly in salt-laden coastal areas. Heavy rust can lead to structural weakness and MOT failure.
- Lambda Sensor Failure(Moderate)
The oxygen (lambda) sensor fails regularly, causing poor fuel economy, failed emissions tests and engine management warning lights.
