Engine Management Light 206 SW

Feb 22, 2009 3 Replies

I have a 206 SW on a 05 plate with 20k on the clock. It has been looked after. Tonight when driving along the amber engine management light came on. The car ran like a dog and sounded to my untrained ears like it was running on 3 cylinders (I may be wrong). I made it home and left the engine off for 15 minutes then I started it back up and it runs fine and the light is now off.



I've checked all fluids and they are ok.



The car is under warrenty (yeah I know har har har) but before I get involved with Peugeot is there likely to be something I can do myself such as fit a set of plugs although I wouldn't have thought it would need them at 20k.



I changed the oil and filters myself at about 14k. The car has been absolutely fine since I got it with 10k on the clock 10 months ago.



Any help appreciated. Thanks


If you are worried by this take it to either a pug dealer and get the fault logs read. I think these typically get erased after 20 successful engine starts so don't leave it to long. Otherwise take Chris's advice and see if it happens again.
