When ever i come to a sudden hault or now when i just stop , it keeps cutting out on me. It is really dangerous as it does it when im turning into junctions and everything just stops. The thing that is driving me crazy is that it will start back up no problem at all. The tick over is very low too. Please can someone try and help only i have had the car not even 2 months.
Walk away.I bought a 2004 206 in excellent condition for my son but it cut out at roundabouts almost killing him.Garage had it for a month could not fix it .Shortest ownership of any car.Dealer took it back in exchange for new Citigo on cheap finance. I almost had a breakdown (nervous) myself over this car. Peugeot.never again!!

I had exactly the same problem and am posting this just to help anyone who suffers.
I replaced the Plugs, Coil Pack and Fuel Inlet Valve all to no avail.
As a last resort I changed the water temperature sensor at a cost of 12 pounds - that fixed the problem
Peugeot 206's use some form of algorithmic calculation based upon sensor readings. As it was getting inaccurate data it's response was just to shut down the engine!

I work for peugeot and my advice is to walk into the service department and ask for some free advice and ask what it might be, the best person to speak to is the workshop controler they seem to know more than the people behind the desk.

my peugeot keeps cutting out on me mid drive, round bends etc and has nearly caused me to have an accident on many occasions. the engine light will come and and i have no power at all, so i will then turn the ignition back on and it will start right away but then cut out when i come to slow down again.
please could you tell me what the problem is as the garage couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Mine did this and it turned out to be a faulty crank sensor. Replaced and reprogrammed and now running fine :) I know what you mean about the danger, I lost power steering going round a tight corner on a steep hill and just missed sliding off the edge of the hill!
Good luck,

Joanne,
I had the same problem about a year ago, and it turned out to be I needed new software downloaded to the engine management system. You will have to go to your nearest Peugeot dealer to have it done, cost approx £58 in total.
