Morning, might be worth putting which model 206 you have.

As far as i know the MA box is cable operated and has an auto adjuster.
Sorry, the above is incorrect as per the the more knowledgable person below Smile

For the BE box, i would follow this guide from Peugeot:

Hope this helps, Richard.

Got hydraulic on my 1.4 hdi and that has a MA box ... it's the engine/trim that often decides ... same gearbox!

Same way as brakes but via the clutch slave on the side of the gearbox ..


As for fluid, whatever is recommended ... so probably stick with bog standard DOT 4 or may be 5.1 NOT DOT 5 as that is for a different braking system as the two don't match (5.0 can destroy the seals in the wrong system!)


And don't splash any on paint ... world's best paint-stripper ... and very very hard to repaint as it gets in the metal!

Down to just the 1.4 HDi. Cayman Green 2.0i CC sold.

easy!
things you will need:
1. A buddy
2. a large turkey baster/syringe or something like that
3. some hose like what used in a fish tank... i like to use a clear hose so i can see if there are bubbles in the line. and a bottle.
4. 11mm, 8mm spanners.. closed 6pt box type not the multi point dont want to strip those bleed nipples.
5. Jack, axle stands wheel spanner, etc if you're thin enough and you can fit under that can work too.

well just read that u can bleed brakes so same procedure and you'll be using the 11mm spanner. it bleeds right on the slave cylinder on the gearbox. just dont get brake fluid in your eyes

also on a 180 rember to never let the reservoir run dry because if you get ANY air into the abs pump you will need pp2000 to actervate the pump so you can bleed it out.

Removed due to it screwing the forum width up and looking like a odd bit of code.
