Peugeot 106 service: key facts

Routine service items

These are the items covered in a standard service. Most garages include oil, oil filter and a basic inspection. The rest are typically checked or replaced on a schedule.

Service itemIntervalTypical cost
Engine oil and filter
Manufacturer specifies 6,000 miles or 12 months. Use 10W-40 semi-synthetic oil. Change filter every service. Short service intervals help prevent camshaft wear on high-mileage examples.

6,000 miles or 1 year
£45–£65
Dealer: £70–£95
Air filter
Replace every 12,000 miles. Clogged filter affects emissions performance and fuel economy. Check more frequently if driven in dusty conditions.

12,000 miles or 2 years
£15–£25
Dealer: £25–£40
Fuel filter

Dealer: £50–£70
Coolant flush
