2.0 HDI Dipstick Tube Removal
-> 206 Problems

#1: 2.0 HDI Dipstick Tube Removal Author: BikerDave PostPosted: Tue Oct 01, 2019 10:48 am

Hi Guys, I am trying to remove the dipstick tube on my 03 206 2.0 HDI to remove the broken part of the dipstick. The bolt/s fastening it to the engine (not sure if there are 1 or 2) are completely inaccessible.

Has anyone overcome this is so how did you do it?

Thanks in advance

I took the manifold off!! ... but I was replacing the two core plugs in the head of my 1.4 hdi ..

I don't think you can remove that tube easily .. can you push the remains down into the sump? It's unlikely to do any damage in the bottom ...

This is what I have done in the past with a TU3 lump.

The mesh on the end of the oil pick up pipe will stop it being sucked back in to the oil pump.

If your really lucky & get the engine oil hot it may even come out next time the oil is drained.

Thanks gents. It seems fairly well lodge and wont go down with the dipstick. I might try and ram it down with a welding rod or similar.
