Got a slight leak in mine. Is the pipework the same on all 206's? Its the metal pipe thats leaking under radiator. Easy to change? Or is there any magic gunk I could repair pipe with?

Pipe needs replacement, sticking stop leak stuff in will only cause more expensive problems in the future.

Technicaly thats for the HDI high pressure fuel pipes.

For power steering pipes as long as there isnt any dirt / debris inside the pipe work it will be fine to reuse.

Somewhere like Pirtek might be able to repair it...cheaper than a new pipe anyway.

Might take you up on that BSI, any idea how much? Are they an easy fit?

Pirtek, thought they only did rubber hoses? Maybe not

Nope, along with many other types of hose / pipework stuff they do for industrial applications they also do power steering & aircon pipes for automotive stuff Wink

Just give them a pattern to copy & they can make it up for you.

I got my Goodridge brake hoses from Pirtek ( there a Goodridge agent ) as I used the work discount Laughing
