Hi Guys
New to the forum, first post is a question
Just purchased the 3 gearlinkages for my Pug 206 1.4 glx and was wondering if anyone knows of a guide to changing them or can give me a quick run down. Is it something i can undertake on my drive with a couple of axel stands. Whats access like and what tools will i need.
Many Thanks
Sam

predictably, being peugeot they can be such a pig to get off! id recommend some sort of leverage or a hench pair of pliers to get them off the balljoint.
but yeah, theyre accessible enough from underneath. maybe even from above with your engine
