#1: 1.4 HDI sluggish Author: glenpring, Location: KENTPosted: Mon Feb 16, 2015 3:20 am ---- Hi all been away from the site for a long time since getting rid of my 307. The wife has a 206 1.4 HDI and I drove it yesterday night and noticed there was hardly any power, now I know it's only a 1.4 but so was my 307 and it's bigger but that had more power then this 206. It's struggles to get to 70mph no eml light on any thoughts what this could be?

If you remove the heatshield you might be able to knock it hard enough to make the cat wobble and bounce around, but it's well steadied with bolts to engine.
It shouldn't take to much to remove ... I only lost a small amount of skin and blood!
