Basically most of the stuff (parts) i've changed are found in my
Cardomain page.

Anyway, do expect to change mechanical stuff when ur car comes to age
around 4 to 5 years old.. talking about engine mountings n sorts

Thankfully and *touch wood* no major problems. My most expensive bill
came to around RM800.. servicing. ATF oil, gearbox oil.. basically all
dealing with oils..

Minor problems, basically, bar link.. that's about it.. But i do know
there are some other 206 owners who had problem with air-cond etc etc
etc.. the major ones.

So far, my car doesnt have major problem except knocking sound from the
front suspension when drive over humps at slightly higher speed (no problem
if i go over it slowly) ..

The cracking sound i discovered last week whenever i turn my steering is
gone.. not sure what cause the sound...

i notice there is condensation on the middle bottom part of the windscreen
whenever i on the air-con, i think cold air is coming out from the air
vents at the front of the dashboard caused the condensation. Anyone has
that problem with their 206? and the air con not so cold right??

Mine also does that, but the aircon remains very cold. Cos even with the
roof down, it is still cold if you turn the vents towards you at full blast.

is the condensation normal? As far as i know, there shouldn`t be any air
coming out from that air vents on the dashboard when the air-con is on. The
air-con is not as cold as my old wira.. hehe, maybe wira is known of its
air-con(only one thing)...

maybe should raise this problem to C&C.. but by right, air shouldnt come
out from there when the air con is on, right?

check a few things:

1) the 1st dial from the passenger side. make sure the dial is at the
position where u see 2 arrows pointing towards a person

2) check make sure ur A/C button is on. (there shud be a green/yellow
light)


my 206 has never had any condensation in the middle part of the
windscreen (*touch wood*) and the air-cond is cold at number 2 on a hot
sunny day thanks to the tint and at night, number 1 is just nice
