206 1.4 petrol temp

Post by colski »

Hi guys,

I have a Peugeot 206 1.4 (miles roughly 60K on replacement engine), just wondering what temp these engines should run at and how long should they take to reach full running temp?

Mine seems to take a while, and only reaches about 75 after about 8 miles, it sometimes gets to 80 but takes forever, sometimes 20 miles!

Thanks.

Seems OK too. Around 80 is about normal for a new one.

You could change the thermostat if you're worried, although if going to do that I'd suggest hosing it all out anyway.

Nothing to worry about there. Just be thankful you don't run a Ford Escort, their gauge would drive me mental:
