#1: Engine management light and misfire Author: vartegrich, Posted: Tue Apr 28, 2015 12:50 pm ---- I'll apologise as this has probably been asked many times before, but as a 206 novice I'm looking for a little clarity before swapping parts.
My daughter has a 206 1.4 LX as a a first car and whilst out gaining some driving experience today, the management light illuminated and there was a repetitive beeping noise. She said the car was lumpy with no power.
She was able to bring the car home, but even a restart didn't clear the symptoms. We left the car for an hour whilst we went to get a code reader. I plugged the reader in and it showed two instances of P0300 and one instance of P0130. We I started the car, the engine was running normally and there was no management light or beeping noise.
I believe the symptoms to be the Coil Pack (and/or plugs).
Is it a safe bet to replace the coil pack and the plugs?
This may be relevant or not, but there has been an occasional series of beeps on start up, but these usually stop after a few seconds.

I would replace the spark plugs first before spending out on a new coil pack.
Bosch Super Plus spark plugs will do the job nicely.
FYI: cylinder 1 is gearbox end being a Peugeot in case you pull any more misfire / specific cylinder related codes in the future

Unfortunately, I wasn't in the car with her when she had the fault and know little about the 206s.
How safe is it to continue if the fault reoccurs? I've read the horror stories of blown ECUs.

If it does also need a coil then try & get a Bougicord branded one if you can - or any other decent / known brand ( Valeo is worth a look )
Make sure you match the coil pack connector plug colour as there are 2 options ( grey OR black ) & there not interchangeable as the plug shape is slightly different.
