- The sway bar or anti roll bar or stabilizer link is a simple but important part of your car which contributes to giving the car a precise and steady handling.
When the ball joints get worn they will loosen up and you will here a cloncking noise when going over irregularities and while cornering.
It's really simple to replace so don't hesitate !
I would like to congratulate you on an excellent instruction video on changing the stabaliser bar. First class and your explanations are amongst the best I have ever viewed, including the nut / tool size requirements. Your english is excellent. Well done and thank you I will be attempting this in 2-days with some confidence now.
Thankyou very much :D ! I'm happy to hear that you found that clear, it's very encouraging. I wish you luck for the job but you should be just fine ;).
Hi, I found your channel recently. I own a 206 and I am gratefull for your videos on this car. Thank you, greetings from Yorkshire, England. Norman.
Hello ! I'm glad you find my videos helpfull. i'll try and do more ;¬) ! Salutations from the south of France.
So glad i discovered your videos.

Excellent job! thank you! I will be really interested if you can do a video of changing the gearbox oil of 206
Thanks ! Will do if I have the opportunity to !
Nice video - can you maybe do a video that shows how to put the car on axel stands?
Excellent channel. Subbed ! 👍🏻

Hi Gus, thanks, you're welcome ;¬) !
Very good video, good tips, very helpful. I have to do this in the next days...
Many thanks for this video. Sure, i left a abo here 👍👍👍.
Thanks a lot mate! 10/10
You're welcome, cheers 😉 !
No torque wrench, a real man. 😁
Super, klasse erklärt. Am Samstag kann ich es selbst ausprobieren. Danke
You're welcome, hope it will go well for you. If you lift both wheels at the same time the sway bar will come of very easily ;¬).
You do not need the extender at around 3:00 if you lift up both front wheels, then the sway bar is not pressing at all. I used an angle grinder to remove the old link as it was too rusty to loosen up.
OK, tanks for the tip ;-).
What kind of OBD scanner do you use for your Peugeot 206? I have a 1.4i from 2000 and my OBDII scanner connects but cannot read any data. Thanks.
Fantastic and really easy. thanks.
Thanks, glad you like it :¬)
Hi, first off thanks for your great tutorial videos. I have a question: After replacing the 2 sway bars (both sides) it will be necessary to perform wheel re-alignment, e.g., caster/camber/toe in a specialized shop?
Hi, you're welcome ! Glad you found it usefull ;). You don't have to do a wheel alignement after a sway bar change.
Haha ! Thanks ^^, France.
Rogério NDJr - No it's not needed because of the stabilizer change, BUT if the stabilizers are in need of change most probably other parts are also on the their way out (bushings, ball joints, etc.) meaning that you should at least check the wheel alignment. A good flat strait road it's good to evaluate. Be aware that most roads have a slope to either side, so choose wisely. Your tires also show quite well if anything it's not perfect. ;-)
Based on that you can decide to do it or not. Be well.
Hi. Thanks so much for your info.
Great video. Thanks.
Thank you, my pleasure !
Cheers mate. Dink dank do for me
You're welcome 😉 !
thanks a lot for the video
No worries ;¬)
thanks mate!
No worries ;) !
Hi there, I wonder if you can help me repair or replace gear linkages as the gear shift was very loose and today came out of gear. I saw that the bushes are no longer there and it has separated from the shifter/gear lever bar. I hope this makes sense.
Hi, I had the same problem on an other car. I recommend you buy new links because if they poped out once it's only a matter of time before they pop out again. It's pretty easy to change, use a long screwdriver or something else to lever the rod balls out of the heads. Use some pliers to put the new ones easily in place.
Oh ok, thanks. I'll get them on the weekend. Do I need both the long and the short links?
Ok thanks. Should I get both long and short links or can I still just get the bushes? I noticed that the links are not holding & i used cable ties to hold them together tight for now.
I did the same thing at first, cables to jold them together ^^. If you want to have peace of mind replace the long and short ones. It's not very expensive and will save you the hassle of doing it later.
Ok will definitely do. Thanks again!
Hi there i have a 206 it sometimes gives a catalytic converter fault whilr driving at certain speed.. do you know anything about this and how to fix it please ? Could be of real help
Hi, do you mainly do short distances ? If it's the case it could be the problem. The catalytic converter needs to be at a certain temperature for a certain time to work efficiently. If you can, do a long drive with it and see if it can solve the problem.
my shortest drive distance is 30 km which i do normally every day of the week.. if the weather is hot outside, the car makes the noise as if the ac is turned on(but its not) and temp goes above 100 sometimes.. i hve changed the coolant as well but no work.. i have tried longer distances as well but no use as the car broke down twice in a week now.. any idea? thanks for reply
OK, maybe your water pump is getting tired but first check the engine fan. Does it turn on when the temp goes up ?
i have no idea bro where it could be, but i will surely google it and check if its working and then will tell you.. do you have any videos regarding that?
Sorry, I don't have a video concernaing that, the 206 is not mine so I don't often fix things on it. You should find waht you need on the net. Good lick.
