What are the reasons for the "Economy" mode light to activate on a Peugeot 207? There can be many, not all immediately obvious. In the case illustrated, the reason was a low oil level: on these engines, a consumption of one litre of oil every 1,000 miles is not considered excessive.

Even if the dipstick shows a correct oil level, the car may still consider it low, and it is necessary to add a small amount of oil. In this case, wait a few minutes and then try again. Another reason you may receive the message indicating that economy mode is active is a low battery: in this case, the radio will turn off and will automatically turn back on after driving for a few miles.
