Roof Fault
I have recently bought my wife a 2003 206CC 2.0CC. The roof went down ( very slowly she said ) and when she arrived home it wouldn't go up at all. It started the first phase and then went back to the open position. It seems as if there wasn't any power lifting the components. Managed to get the roof back up but as the weather is now gorgeous the wife would like her convertable! Can anyone help please?

Re: Roof Fault
You say "no power" Was the pump running? Did you have the engine running?

Re: Roof Fault
The engine was switched on and running. The pump opened the rear cover very slowly and then it just slumped back down to the closed position.

Re: Roof Fault
Check the pressure relief screw is nipped up (the one that the long hex key fits)
