Go and check Peugeot Service Box for prices before buying OEM parts from eBay
Just because it's on eBay, doesn't mean it's a bargain.

Sure they want money for time spent diagnosing/fixing something, but if you look at just the parts the dealers are often cheaper than eBay.

Why? They are cheaper then eBay and Parts shops at times.
Unless you're being sarci in which case,

Thanks again for the help. Gonna be getting the car into the garage as soon as I can

#24: Re: Overheating in traffic Author: nemesislee, Location: stokePosted: Fri Jan 13, 2012 2:43 am ---- Got the call off the garage £62.00 for the thermostat change and coolant top up and to have a look at the low speed fan wiring. Hopefully the thermostat will rectify the problem I'm having and the fan won't need to be fixed
#25: Re: Overheating in traffic Author: MackMac, Location: LancashirePosted: Sat May 19, 2012 12:23 am ---- I have this problem when I sit in traffic in my 206 XSi after at least an hour's drive. I have to watch the water temperature gauge like a hawk and resort to switching the engine off. After reading this, I'm not alone. So it maybe the wiring that needs looking on the fan relay/ wiring/slow resistor.
How much is it likely to cost on getting it looked at or fixed?

I have recently purchased a 206 and having simular issues. The coolent looks rusty and mucky so I am having that flushed today. From reading the thread not sure what to do next ? Is replacing the thermostat easy?

Replacing thermostat is very very easy.
Check your low-speed relay (get's used continualy) and replace the resistor anyway as they wear with time, raising their Ohms value and thus slowing the fan motor down.

Cheers, Richard.
#29: Re: Overheating in traffic Author: Jordy6969, Posted: Wed Jul 24, 2013 4:50 am ---- Have exact same problem - anyone point me to a guide that shows how to replace the thermostat and these relays etc. thank you
#30: Re: Overheating in traffic Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Sat Jul 27, 2013 2:59 pm ---- Check that the fan kicks in at both slow and fast speeds first. If it does then do thermostat only. If it doesn't fix the fan fault first (relays, resistor etc.) and you will probably find a thermostat isn't needed.
