On the 2006-2014 Peugeot 207, the Prince-family EP6 engine suffers from premature timing chain tensioner failure, causing chain slack and potential valve-to-piston contact. Early production units had an undersized tensioner that was later revised.
Replace the timing chain, tensioner, and guides with the updated revision parts. Ensure correct oil specification (0W-30) is used to maintain hydraulic tensioner pressure.
On the 2006-2014 Peugeot 207 1.6L EP6DT Turbo, the turbocharger oil feed and return lines develop leaks on the 1.6 THP engine, leading to oil consumption and blue exhaust smoke. The turbo bearing seals also deteriorate with extended oil change intervals.
Replace the turbo oil feed and return lines with updated gaskets. If bearings are worn, a turbo rebuild or replacement is necessary. Use manufacturer-recommended oil change intervals.
On the 2006-2014 Peugeot 207, the MA/BE-series manual gearbox develops a characteristic whining or rumbling noise from the input shaft bearing. The noise is present in neutral with the clutch engaged and disappears when the pedal is pressed.
Replace the input shaft bearing. This requires gearbox removal but is significantly cheaper than a full gearbox replacement if caught early.
