Yes I can feel the vibration/banging, not the heat!!
I need some welding done underneath next month, so I will get it looked at properly when it's on the ramps. I just wanted to stop it banging un ... |

Thanks for your thoughts - I think I might have found something. If I really push the exhaust mid-section, it does hit the underside of the car. I thought it was coming from further back than that, bu ... |

I've been under the car bangin ... |

Thanks, it's off now. Mine a 2.0 HDi, but I think I'm going to hang onto it in case I feel a need to put it back on. |

Do I really need it? I've been going through sorting out the worst of my rattles, and it's really the only thing left to sort. Does it protect anything vital?

Thanks. I was thinking more about the inconsistent feel/weight of the steering rather than the creaking. Thought the fluid might need changing or something. The local motor factors sold me 2 liters of ... |

I'm sure I've got air in it or something, it's so inconsistent. That and the fact it creaks! :/ |

I have this problem too, but it's not my top mount bearings. Changed 'em. My steering is pretty inconsistent, so I've just bought some fluid to change it. Just gotta work out where to drain it from. |

There is a seal, yes but it seems OK. I'm going to try taking some fluid out and see what happens although it doesn't say it's overfilled. |

Thanks for the reply. I just tried steering again, and after 3 or 4 full locks, it squirts out of the main filling cap. |

Mine's the 2.0. And never ending problems with exhaust(3 backboxes in 2 years)/suspension/steering/rust that I hadn't noticed under the in-tact underseal, but that could happen to any 206 I suppose!

Mine only gets about 35mpg around town, or 54mpg on the motorway. Gotta say I was hoping for better than that when I got it after seeing figures. Bit of a tractor too |
