Hi the temp sensor probably the same on the 206 and the 207 , mines gone after only three months old new car .
As a result it wont start in cold mornings taked about 6 times really hard to get it started but when warm seems alrit.
Ive seen the temp gauge go up and down and crazy byitself so booked it into pug next week but as under warranty and hard to start its in peugeot now. Have to wait for the part they say be fixed monday .Ive driving brand new vauxhall astra 1.6 petrol got that till monday courtsey car for now .
Anyone else had a temp sensor gone and does it make the engine not start ?? ive read few times on internet it does for some reason.

The AA man said that engine thinks its warm when its cold or something and so hard to start .
Think its the most common fault with the 1.4 16v sport ,cant believe anything can go after only just 3 months.

Seen a few promo and prototype shots, and they all seem to be similar. Not a fan of it.

thinking i shoulda got a new astra now its really nice , well nice to drive, nice seats and steering wheel and its NOT french no rattles problems lol . Nice at front not so keen on the back though. You dont feel how fast your going either i was doing 70 thinking was less scary really didnt seem like was doin 70 already , mind you im not going over 70 in it as its not my car and only got it few days lol.
Im really happy with the 207 apart from this one probably already trust me to pick the engine with this common fault mind you they must all have some peugeots always do, least they have to fix it for free everytime for 3 years then il just get another new car .
Think the Gti turbo petrol engined 207s heard hell of alot of problems with them lol.
Ive seen few pics of the 208 think it looks alirt.

Peugeot extended warranty with mot test cover for another 3 years 
Make sure its a genuine PEUGEOT extended warranty, dont let a dealer tuck you up with one of there dealer group warrantys.

Its the 1.4 Vti 16v 95bhp sport engine made with Mini, BMW .
It didnt even come up on the AA mans computer thing was just the 1.4 8v think its only been out less than a year for the 207.
There is old sport 1.4 which is 16v 90bhp but this is the new Vti engine and there is normal 1.4 8v which is 75bhp .
Duno why peugeot made so many 1.4 petrol engines for the 207 there are 3 that i know of mabey more lol.

You better go check
Genuine Peugeot extended warranty = you can take the car to ANY Peugeot dealer in the UK for reapir just like you can now.
A dealer warranty = your basically stuffed, it has to go to that dealer OR another dealer in the same group for repair.
