Some have fuel filters that are 'lifetime' that are fitted in the fuel lines and some have replaceable fuel filters. All of the 206 pollen filters are the same across all models which is part number 6447AZ. If you want me to check the oil and air filters, drop me your reg or VIN number and I can give you exact part numbers as I work at Peugeot and can get you the numbers for you. |
Official peugeot parts are expensive and i gotta go to the dealership to get them or which website has them at the best prices?
I just pm you my details. |
Like I said earlier motor factors are pretty reasonable. But If you go to main dealers they aren't always expensive and you can always bargain with them to get prices down. Alternatively, you can go to a factor with OE part numbers and they can get you the parts/prices of their bits. I'll send you correct part numbers when I receive the PM

I saw someone put engine flush in a car once and it removed all the sludge and crap that was stopping the oil leaking out. I wasn't complaining as I made a few quid swapping the engine over for a recon unit.
Don't forget about spark plugs if you're doing a service.
If you don't know the service history of the car I'd also consider changing the brake fluid, antifreeze and timing belt.

What does it say on the back on the tin? Just take it to the garage and let them flush the engine before they drain the oil. There needs to be a bit of heat in the engine first anyway.

Cars with oil changed regularly don't need engine flush.

It says put in engine and rev it neutral for no more than 15mins at 2000rpm.
Or could i just drive to the garage in 15mins? It saves me the time of doing the instruction above.

okay
think what a engine flush does.
it clears all the rubbish out of the engine you then do a oil change to get rid of it right.
wrong
you may get some of it out but a lot of it will stay in the engine
it will then get picked up in the oil where it will block oil ways and more than likely block your oil pump then bye bye engine
