right the first problem i ran into was getting the catr home it was totally fine until i got to the traffic lights near my home i tryed to select first but couldnt find it then when i did it just grinded the gears so i got 2nd and struggled to pull off but got moving.
the gears i can find 2,3,4,5,R yet when im in a gear the stick does not stay in place its very loose and can put it in a gear like 2nd for instance and slide it along toward reverse
heard it could be the linkage thaught id check on here what the 206 experts say thanks.
also i have an oil leak not sure if its the engine or steering fluid of both and they are both coverd in oil. and how do i check the steering fluid level

Power steering:
Open the bonnet & remove the cap that has a picture of a steering wheel on & also POWER ASSISTED STEERING printed on it.
You will find a dipstick attached to the cap.
Gearlinkages do wear, replace the link rods there cheap enough new from any Peugeot / Citroen main dealer.

update* the linkage was snapped off on the bottom rod just a quick queston though thers a big ball joint should there be a rubber bush?
and the oil leak was fluid hopefully so changed the steering resivoir
