hi, my 2008 206 has started to give me problems which is driving me mad.
after the car has stood over night i start it up to go to work (it starts first time with no problems) i pull away and it runs bad as if its got a missfire, as soon as i change to 2nd gear it cuts out and i struggle to get it started again, after about 5 goes it finally gets going although running poor, i did notice if i leave the car running for 10 mins or so at the start to defrost the windscreen the car doesnt cut out when i dive off but still runs poor, thinking it was plugs or ignition coil these have been changed along with air filter and map sensor, now im at a loss as to what it can be, any help would be very welcome

hi Addaz, i bought a reader today, and its showing no codes which is why im now stummed as to what the problem is,
i am having problems with my positive battery terminal corroding with a white substance, not sure if that could be related as it does start first time and its never flat on a morning, the car just bogs down when i first set off and cuts out unless i warm the engine first

How old is the battery? If old replace and do a BSI reboot (guide on here through search) and may solve your problems

Check your battery, recheck the plugs, replace the temp sensor (as ive had these play up)
What engine is it btw? 1.4 16v by any chance?

no codes - hmmm odd - could be plugs or coil pack or temp sensor but should come up with some code
Disconnect the battery for 30 minutes to reset everything - i did to clear a few things - codes still there but at least the engine light has gone out

I assume you disconnected the battery when you fitted the new Lambda Sensor?

Was your replacement lambda a cheap one by any chance?

I was wondering if the battery wasnt disconnected when the new Lambda sensor was fitted whether this could have blown a fuse hense the fault code?
I could be wrong and clutching at straws but regardless i wouldnt have thought it good practice to unplug and plug in a new sensor with the battery still connected on both terminals
