Find the right ABS ring or reluctor ring for your Peugeot 206, whether you drive an early 1998 petrol model or a later variant. This category features a comprehensive range of sensor...
The Peugeot 206 is one of the most popular small cars of all time, and despite its general reliability, the ABS ring is a component that often suffers heavy wear in harsh road conditions. At CVJoint24 you will find a carefully selected range of 12 different ABS rings, covering everything from the early petrol models to the later diesel variants. As a Swedish driveline specialist, we understand the importance of an exact fit, especially when it comes to safety-critical components such as the brake system's reluctor rings. By choosing a model-matched part from our stock, you ensure that your vehicle's electronic stability and anti-lock braking systems operate exactly as the manufacturer intended, which is essential for both safety and control on the road.
The ABS ring, also known as an ABS reluctor ring or sensor ring, is mounted on the CV joint and is designed to provide the ABS sensor with continuous information regarding the wheel's exact rotational speed. On a Peugeot 206, this ring usually consists of a toothed metal ring that is pressed into place. As the wheel rotates, the teeth create a magnetic pulse in the sensor, which is relayed to the vehicle's control unit. If the ring is damaged, cracked or clogged with dirt, the signal can become fragmented or drop out entirely, preventing the ABS system from detecting whether a wheel is about to lock up under heavy braking. This is a vital part of the car's active safety systems that requires high-precision components to function reliably under all driving conditions.
The most common sign that an ABS ring on your Peugeot 206 needs replacing is the ABS warning light illuminating on the dashboard. Another very typical symptom is the ABS kicking in, causing the brake pedal to judder or pulse during normal, low-speed braking, even when the road surface is completely dry. This is often caused by the ring cracking due to corrosion forming underneath it, which changes the spacing between the teeth and confuses the sensor. If you notice these symptoms, you should visually inspect the rings for cracks or missing teeth. Ignoring these issues can lead to reduced braking performance and cause the car to fail its annual roadworthiness test.
Choosing the correct ABS ring for your Peugeot 206 requires careful attention. There are several different designs depending on the engine option and chassis number. The most critical parameters are the tooth count, the inner diameter of the ring, and its width. Because the Peugeot 206 was manufactured over many years with various technical revisions, the most reliable way to find the right part is to filter by your car's make, model and engine. This narrows down the 12 relevant products and minimises the risk of ordering a ring that cannot be pressed onto your existing CV joint. Always check the specifications against your old ring if you are unsure, particularly the tooth count, which is frequently 29 or 48 on this model.

When a drivetrain component shows signs of wear, neighbouring parts on the same car often require inspection as well. By comparing these exact pages for the Peugeot 206, it becomes easier to determine whether the fault lies strictly with the ABS ring or another related part of the transmission.
This is particularly relevant on models where vibrations, play and noises can transfer between multiple drivetrain components. A quick check of related categories reduces the risk of replacing the correct component type while overlooking an adjoining part that contributes to the same problem.
Inspecting these components at the same time saves time and ensures a lasting repair of your car's drivetrain. An intact CV boot and a well-lubricated constant velocity joint are essential for your new ABS ring to last without being damaged by corrosion.

The easiest way is to select your Peugeot 206 make, model and engine on our website. Because there are different versions with varying tooth counts (often 29 or 48 teeth), filtering by your exact vehicle specification is the most reliable way to ensure the correct fitment.
On the Peugeot 206, you can readily replace just the ABS ring if the CV joint is otherwise in good condition. It is a very cost-effective repair if the ring has simply cracked due to rust.
This is often caused by a cracked ABS ring or a faulty sensor. A cracked ring sends an erratic signal to the sensor, which triggers a fault code and illuminates the ABS light.
Yes, you usually need to detach the drive shaft from the wheel hub to gain access, remove the old ring, and press the new one onto the outer CV joint.
Besides the ABS failing to work properly or triggering erratic pedal feedback under braking, the car will also fail its roadworthiness test (MOT) if the warning light remains illuminated.
Thoroughly clean all corrosion and debris from the mounting surface on the CV joint. Gently warm the new ABS ring and carefully press or tap it into position so that it sits squarely and firmly in place.
