#1: complete lack of power and weird noise Author: steveo1259, Location: ManchesterPosted: Sat Aug 04, 2012 9:15 am ---- Hi all,
Urgent problem with peugeot 206 1.4 glx 1999.
I was driving along and thw car was fine. Put my foot down around 10 mph to accelerate and there was no power, pulled off to the side of the road to restart the car and it had trouble establishing an idle, almost to the point of stalling but it didn't.
When driving it is very hard to get the car going and there is no power in any gear, only starts to properly move when ove 2k revs,
It is also making a weird noise now and the exhaust is shaking a lot.
Any idea as to what this could be and how to fix it?
Thanks

#3: Re: complete lack of power and weird noise Author: steveo1259, Location: ManchesterPosted: Sat Aug 04, 2012 9:37 am ---- What would I look for if ghe coil pack has gone?
Where abouts is it in the engine?
How much for a replacement?

I has a grey plug connected to it. Not too sure about price for a brand new one. If it has gone power dramatically decreases as this happend to one of my mates 206 as he couldn't get past 20mph

I've never had a problem like this before

Not all of them do, some have a black connector plug & there NOT interchangeable
Throwing replacement parts at a car without doing proper diagnostic tests to pin point the fault is also a waste of time & money.

I've replaced one before on a 206 with the 1.4 lump that had a black connector plug.

There are 4 different 1.4 engines just in the 206

I've no idea what spark plugs are in it as i only bought the damm thing 3 weeks ago...
Got a garage looking at it on monday and hopefully it will be covered under warranty.
