Some weeks ago I put my 306 into the local dealer for a free diagnostic check and update on the ECU. The results chowed a coil pack fault however, I had only just replaced it, so the dealer reset the computer and away I went happy and no managejment light!1 A couple of days ago the light came on again and has stayed on? I bought a Gunsons fault finder to try and see if I could get the fault code from the ECU but I couldnt get the thing to work? Either I was NOT in the correct diagnostic connector or the thing was faulty? Has anyone used the Gunsons fault finder on a Peugeot and if so where does it get connected too? Also, the dealer told me the Catalytic Converter was WORN, does this show up on the diagnostic check or can it be seen physically that it is worn?

I had the same experience with a Gunson's code reader. Check this page to read the codes out:

just take the car back
Yes, do that, but it's best to have some knowledge of the problem beforehand because Peugeot dealers, esp IME, have a tendency to talk complete cobblers, have little regard for fixing problems and when they do attempt to, fail miserably.
....and charge through the nose.
