hi everyone
Im have 2 areas with oil leaks.
One is coming from the oil filter area but although oil is dripping at the bottom of the the filter, i think its from the filter seal or oil cooler pipes in that area.
I replaced the filter but the leak appeared straight away.
My other leak is from the pipes exiting from the bottom of the sump. They can be pushed up and down, is this normal
Anyone know what these pipes are and how to fix the leak.

I'm a total newbie to 206's so any help very much appreciated.

Cheers
LP

Try tightening the oil filter a bit more.
If that doesn't work I'd change the oil & put a new filter back on.
Don't forget to lubricate the filter seal with clean oil before you screw it back on.

I will try that, even though i did oil the new seal. Might try a pukka Peugeot filter too.
