Cleaning the MAF sensor of the Peugeot 206.

Model: Peugeot 206 MK 1 - Years 1998-2012
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the Peugeot 206 has a non-linear engine performance and a decrease in performance, the cause may be a dirty Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor. To clean it, open the hood of the engine compartment and secure it with its rod. Find the sensor on the intake manifold that feeds air into the injection system, located on the passenger side. Using an 8mm socket wrench with an extension, unscrew the bolt that holds it in place and remove the sensor. Place a cloth over the engine, place the sensor on it, and spray it with a specific cleaning spray. Wait for it to dry, then reinstall the sensor in its place and secure it with the screw.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Light on the Opel Grandland X

While driving, if you notice the tyre pressure warning light coming on, first check the actual inflation pressure of the tyres and, if necessary, restore the pressures recommended by the manufacturer. After restoring the correct pressures, you need to reset the warning light that has illuminated on the instrument cluster. To do this, locate the reset button on the lower central console. Press this button and hold it down for at least 3 seconds, after which the low pressure indication will turn off.
