Hello everyone!
I wanted to flush my cooling system and I am came into few problems. I was looking for the radiator's drain plug, and just couldn't find it.
By this manual, it shows me the plug is under the radiator to the right. But it seems I don't have this plug.
 


I was also trying to find it using Peugeot service site. here's a picture shows my radiator. Point C appears to be the drain plug, but in fact it's just another hose.
 


I really need your help!
Thank you.

Just pull off the bottom rad pipe and it will all come out, faster too, Wink

You might not have one... mine has snapped off sometime in its past.

As Ben says - take the bottom hose off.... just make sure the engine is cold!

I wonder why I bother with this place, 4 years and all members do is slag each other off. Even Barry Boys seems a nicer place at times...

I know I can use the bottom hose. I only afraid it won't come back into place.
My type is 206 1.6 i 16v (TU5JP4, NFU engine). The model called "One Line PK" (I guess it's made for Israel only)
