- In this video I'll show how to take care by yourself of changing the front brakes on a Peugeot 206.
I'll tell you which tools you'll need, show you step by step how to proceed and give you a few tips along the way.
Enjoy ;) !
That was quite the best demonstration I have ever seen,no annoying music, clearly shows how the job is done and tells me what sockets I need before I start
The Workshop manual is nothing like as easy to follow
Many thanks
I was pretty insecure, since braking is so important. After seeing this video, I am confident enough that i can do it myself, easily! This video contains every know how you need. Thanks a lot!
You're right, never do something you don't feel confident about especially if it's directly linked to your safety.
But I'm glad you find my video clear enough to give it a try :¬).
You've just saved me £200! Cheers mate
Perfect 😁 !
You are great guy. Making these videos was very nice from you and I bet many people benefited from your tutorials. Thank you.
Thankyou Ivan, I hope it helps ! My main channel is in french but When I have a bit of time I try and make some videos in english.
Did it yesterday and all went well thanks to your instructions.
Good job, glad I could help !
Thank you mate. I needed to see this in order to confirm what I thought. The way to go if you get those pesky t55 torx, is turn the wheel so you can put an extended wrench, and pull!
Thanks buddy. Great video and now I know what tools I need I can buy the right torx bits for the job
My pleasure, glad it helped you ;¬).
I felt motivated and inspired
Great 😃 !
A great video with easy step-by-step explanation. Thank you, it helped a lot!
Thanks, glad it could help ;¬) !
Having trouble getting the discs off, the torxs 55 screws are a pain in the arse they seem to be in there real good and can't shift them even with a extender bar and soaked in penetration oil! Gr8 video it's helped loads 👌
These screws can really be tough so take your time, use a lot of penetrating fluid and be carefull with the Torx bit, it can break if it's really too hard. If they still don't budge, try heating them up with a flame. Hope you'll manage and glad my video helped ;¬).
thanks, dude. Awesome tutorial
My pleasure, glad you appreciate !
Hey guy! you speak english as good as you speak french!! well done!
Hi Fred, it's a bit more difficult in english as I don't have all the technical vocabulary but I should learn along the way ;¬).
Merci, yes I figured it out it's very easy once you know how..
Many thanks... You helped a lot.
You're welcome 😉 !
Great video, as always.
Thanks a lot :-) !
Thank you.
GREAT VIDEO
very good teacher:-) many many thanks to you :-)
Thankyou, it's a pleasure ;¬).
hey man!
thank you so much for your videos you are making everything easy and very well explained keep it up.
cheers,
Hi ! Happy to see that you find it useful ;¬).
I have a question i need your advice since you are from france
I just moved here in france and I'm planing to buy a car I'm thinking BMW E46 or MERCEDES C200 what do you think? or what do you suggest a good car in france,
Thanks again
Welcome to France then !
I am a big BMW fan so that's what I would suggest but I don't know anything about Mercedes. Are you looking for a diesel or petrol engine ? Powerfull or not necessary. Do you drive a lot, more than 20000 km a year ?
Anyone can do that ! Anyone can do that ! Diesel , not powerful, just a good looking car with reasonable price and reliable
I Think 20000 km sounds right , i heard the E46 need a lot of maintenance is that right?
I know much more about petrol engines, and they are very reliable. The diesel ones aren't too bad but some have had some issues and it's good to know if the problem has been fixed or not. I'd recommend a 320d after 2002, with a good service history. Ask to see if the turbo and the injection pump have been replaced because they are the main problems you can encounter with diesel E46.
Apart from that you can find the 2.0 diesel engine in all models, sedans, coupe, convertible and touring.
Thanks mate!
Great video, really clear and helpful. I haven't checked your channel but have you done videos on changing spark plugs, oil filter/whole oil change and fuel filter changes for the peugeot 206 1.1?
Thanks Neil ! On 206 I did cabin filter, oil change, spark plugs and sway bar link ;¬).
Very useful and interesting, thanks a lot!
Great, you're welcome !
excellent tips and information :)
Great, happy you find it usefull ;¬)
the trox bit sizes T55 was invaluable. it applies to a peugeot 207 as well.could not do the job without it :)
OK, good to know, thanks for telling me ;¬)
Great VID I should be able to tackle this job without any issues, have you done a video on changing the fuel filter on a 1.4HDI 206? This is the filter next to the battery I can only find one video and I believe it's in Italian but I am having an issue removing the filter .Merci JC.
Thanks ! I've never changed the fuel filter on 206 hdi so I can't help you with that. Good luck for that, I'm sure you'll manage.
Yes, I think you are referring to the oil filter housing. You just need to get some access by twisting the air intake. I believe it is a 27mm nut. I find using a universal joint to be handy. Note the housing material is on the fragile side, so be careful not to crack it.
Great video, you earned another subscriber! But I’m confused about Where to get parts for My 1.6L 206. And should i always go for OEM parts? I’m from Denmark If that makes any difference. Have a great Day!
I just Saw your other video about changing sparkplugs. So Let’s take Those as an example. How Would you find the right ones for My 1.6L 16v 206? I have heard sparkplugs have different gap sizes between the sparking area, and some last longer than others and etc. I need a little guidance :)
Hi, sorry Ireally don't know where you can find tje aprts from Denmark, I live in France.
For the plugs, the best to do if you are unsure is to take one out, see the reference and the socket size. With that you will be able to choose a matching brand.
Hello there, this is a great video, wish I had seen it and given it a go before I took it to a mechanic to change my discs and pads.
That brings me to my question, I've also changed my CV joint, my front left wheel bearing and as said, discs and pads, on both front wheels.
Still, I constantly hear this noisy clicking coming from my front left wheel, sometimes it squeals. Squealing mostly stopped so now it's just clicking all the time and when driving at low speeds it's even more noticeable due to low engine noise. Can you help me and point me in the right direction, a few other local mechanics haven't been able to help? Oh and clicking stops whenever I hit the brakes.
Looking forward to your advice.
Thanks in advance.
edit: Peugeot 206, 2002, 1.4 XS
Hi, glad you appreciated my video. Next time you'll do it yourself.
Concerning the noise, hard to tell when you can't see for yourself, maybe a sticky calipper, keeping one pad always in slight contact ? Bleeding the brakes could be a wise thing to do. Do the brake hoses look OK ?
Good luck with that.
@@fab-b9818 Also tried changing the break hose but once it did nothing, switched the old one back. Fluid seems fine and when I brake the noise is completely gone, and the car brakes fine, in a straight line. They also said the calipers are fine, the disc doesn't seem to be overheating, I've done around 3.000km with the new discs and rotors. Started about 500km after the switch. Any ideas? Could it be terrible quality of the break pads, or perhaps a faulty installment process?
My 206 have pads installed with cylindrical springs. Are the ones you mounted (with leaf springs) also compatible with mine?
Honnestly I dont know so I can't help you out sorry.
nice one!
Thanks !
i need to do this on my 306 thanks !
My pleasure ;)
Very helpfull, thank you
Good, you're welcome ;¬).
thanks m8
Good job
Thanks !
Any chance you could do a front upright replacement video, I need to replace the uprights on my 206 and all the other videos I have found are not very good.
Sorry but since the 206 isn't mine I don't really have an opportunity to do that job...
Ok, no worries.
Thanks for the reply.
Sorry what size disk is that? We battle to get peugeot spares in south africa. Actually the peugeot agents rip us off. Love Peugeot, own a Boxer and a 206 popart.
Hi there, hope all is well. I was wondering if u can help me again with my Peugeot 206. I'm having issues with my clutch sticking to the floor board from time to time. It happens at random times like when I'm stopped at a traffic light & I have to move. The car stalls because when I take my foot of the clutch it does't go back all the way up so the car jolts forward & I the gear stick get's locked in 1st gear & doesn't want to move. I have to switch off the car, pump the clutch, start it again, out the handbrake up pump the clutch again then after that it works fine. I popped the hood & checked the fluid & it's not leaking. I also checked the pedal, it seems to be fine but I did notice an adjustment bolt on it for how much the clutch can be pushed up. Please kindly assist.
Hi ! On your clutch cable the is an automatic ajustment system and it can be faulty. Your problem seems to come from that. Changing the cable should solve your problem.
You'll tell me how it went.
Morning, ok thanks. I will check that out
Hi there, I need some assistance with my Peugeot 206 1.4 Popart 3-door. I had an issue with the engine overheating because the temperature switch was faulty so I asked a random mechanic to fix it as the engine started steaming. The guy bypassed the fan & it's been on ever since (a few months), I eventually got a new temp switch & fan switch put in but now I cannot locate where it was bypassed so it's constantly on while the car is on. How can I solve this issue? Where could the fan be bypassed and connected to? It's not connected to the battery or the engine fuse box
Hi, I see, check on the temperature sensor connector, ther's probably a piece of wire doing the bypass. If not there follow the wire from the temperature sensor and you should end up finding it. Good luck.
Hi, ok thanks. I will check those.
hi. im mike was just wondering if u could to a video on how to unblock ur ac drian on the peugeot if thats ok
Hi Mike, I'll try and give it a look next time I have a 206 around ;).
can you maybe do a handbrake adjustment because no one did for the peugeot 306 206 106 :)
Hey, I don't have a Peugeot that I can work on right now so I won't be able to show you :(. I did 3 videos on hand brake adjustment on 2 bmws and on a Toyota Yaris but they're in french so I don't know if it can help you...
Anyone can do that ! every video is a help :D will look on your channel
They are on my french channel. Here are the links if you want : ua-cam.com/video/4DkAiDtr968/v-deo.html

Hi there, I have an issue on my Peugeot 206. When accelerating the revs go up very high even though the speed is low. When I change gears the rev counter goes down for a second then shoots up again, this happens throughout shifting gears. It's only better on 5th gear but as soon as I slow down it does the same thing. Revs shoot up while the speed is low, even as speed picks up the revs are very very high. What is causing this and how can I fix it?
Hi, does it do that even when you don't accelerate or only when you have your foot on the gas ?
Hi, thanks for the reply. It's only when I have my foot on the gas. The idle is fine
OK, bad news then probably. I think your clutch is at theend of it's life :/.
Oh man, that's not gud. But strangely there's acceleration, well it still takes off. I'll go get it checked out. Thanks.
Yeah, but from what you tell me it's porbably the clutch... Goog luck any way ;).
Any bloody torque setting. ?.
hello there. just wanted to ask wat is that yellow fluid in that tub qhat tou put there at the end. thank you
Hi, if you mean under the bonnet, that's the brake fluid. You want to check the level and remove some fluid if there is too much after the the pads have been installed.
If you mean on the back of the brake pads and on the calipers, that's copper grease (high temperature grease) to prevent the brakes from squeaking.
Yes that copper grease. Thank you. But if you change it and put it new ones it shouldn't be squeaking right? Because 3 days ago I changed mine and I didn't use it. That's why I was asking. Thanks
Even new, brakes can be noisy, it's because of the vibrations between the back of the pads and the calipper, not between the pads and the discs, although if some particles get stuck it can squeak because of that until the particle is worn or ejected.
The grease can avoid the noise due to vibrations but is not compulsory.
Fantastic. Thanks for your help :)
My pleasure ;-) !
bien joué! its not easy
Haha, Merci ;-) !
Well not sure for me!
Yes you can, just take your time and it will be fine ;) !
Ya good but Please put some gloves on!!
