How do you fix a Peugeot 205 wing mirror?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depends on the sort of damage. If its just the actual mirror tahts smashed then u can get a mirror to just stick on top from halfords. But if the mirror unit is broken then you will be better off getting a new one, either from peugeot (£££), eBay or a breakers yard.

To remove the mirror:

-remove the rubber cap from the end of the control lever inside the car

- undo and remove circular locknut from the control lever assembly using thin nose pliers or similar

- prise off the corner trims inside using a flat blade screwdriver, these are surprisingly tightly fitted, and have three locating dowels, two both below and to the left and right of the control lever assembly, and one directly above

- undo and remove 3 (Allen) screws, while supporting the mirror from the outside.

- withdraw mirror and corner assy

How do you change a steering rack boot on a peugeot 205?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Assuming its a power rack... I found it is best to remove it from the car. Use rubber pattern (copy) replacements NOT the genuine Peugeot ones which seem to be of a plastic like material. The difficult one is the boot with equal sized ends that needs to be passed over the power steering ram stud. This stud cannot be removed by the home mechanic.

Remove the old boot. Place the new boot in a jug of boiling water for a minute or two to soften it, then feed (stretch) over the stud using a spoon to cover the end of the stud and prevent it from piercing the new boot. I replaced mine last week on my 95 GTXD this way but also changed the inner ball-joints and found that the small rubber that fits over the ball joint is held in place by the collar that houses the ram stud. I simply cut around the collar and used mastic to re seal the rubber to the collar after fitting the new inner ball-joint

Hope this helps you out. My workshop manual tells you to take the car to a dealer!

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

wack the starter motor.that's the clicking noise.or put it in 2nd gear and roll back and forth to turn the starter motor over.that should do it Kevin

AnswerTry replacing your exhaust system. A spoiler might also help you out. Answeryour engine is not turning. it could be the starter motor but could also be the distributior, check the connexions and check the distributor with a battery tester. If it is not this then it probably will be the starter motor or could be glow plug problems. Also check the battery

Could be siezed solonoid.To test this,remove starter motor and connect current to high tension connection while earthing the starter motor.The bendix should activate,If it doesnt then solonoid faulty or earth fault within the winding.K-reg getting on a bit so starter motor may need replacing.Second hand s/motor cheap as chips.

205 gti starts and then cuts out?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Fuel pressure problem, faulty fuel pump or filter. Check fuel delivery by releasing fuel hose where it enters the engine. Hold the end of the hose in a bottle and have an assistant start the engine. You should get a nice stream of gasoline pouring down the hose. If not, the fuel pressure is too low, check fuel filter and pump.

Can you replace your Peugeot 205 engine with a 405 engine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes - I've replaced the 1.9 8v engine in my 1989 205 GTi 1.9 with the 16v engine from the 405 Mi16. Only minor mech mods are needed with no welding or structural work.

It goes like stink (c.165 hp goes well in a 950kg car!), has a better fuel injection system (Motronic as opposed to Jetronic) so is smoother and mreo fuel efficient.

I'm also aware of people putting the 405 SRi 1.9 8v into a 205, also the 2.0 16v from the later Mi16.

Other popular engine swaps include the 2.0 8v turbo from the Citroen XM and the 16v engines from the 306 s16 and GTI6.

These are all XU series engines, not sure about the TU engined 205s. The XU-based diesel engines are all fairly interchangable too.

The forum at www.205gtidrivers.com will give you all this info and more (including one guy with Mi16 engines in the front AND the back)

Leave vehicle in first gear, to prevent movement, Jack Up rear end of vehicle, remove road wheels, release handbrake lever, hit rear hubs with hammer then try to spin hub, this should work, with rear disc brakes such as 309gti be careful not to damage disc or pads whilst hitting with hammer!
