Good evening guys,
Fantastic forum you have, Fairly new to the 206 scene.
I have jus recently purchased a 2001 2.0 HDI off ebay, car is in fairly good nick except for the gear changes, I find i sometimes struggle to get into gears unless i force it quite a lot... Doing a search the could well be worn linkages... I intend to replace these, my question is....
Are the gear linkages the same for the MA gearbox and the BE4r gearbox?
Also is it fairly straight forward to fit? I am fairly mechanically minded!
Thanks for any help!

no, they are different.
and yes; only if you got small hands, space are quite tight down there.
and you know, gear shift on 206 is sh**.

2.0 petrol and diesel are the same, 1.1, 1.4 , 1.6 use the longer type links
on the HDI its a little harder as you have to do them from under the car unless you take the airbox and pipe coming from the turbo off
i did all 3 last week on mine i got the uprated ones and feel alot better now

Thanks for the quick response.
HDI90 - do you have the BE4r gearbox? And would the ebay links be sufficient for that box?
Thanks again
