Xantia Radio forgets code

You should have a constant 12v supply to the radio for the memory backup. Do you lose your saved radio stations too? If so, sounds like the supply is faulty. If not, I would say you have a faulty radio.

ZX Rear Tyres

by Jon » 26 Feb 2001, 21:45

First post

Interesting. I had this problem on a 94 ZX too. Does your car have alloy wheels? My theory was that either the wheels have become a bit out of shape over the miles, and that air leaked past the seal at the rim, and someone else suggested that the alloy gets a bit porous over the passage of time.

Last post

I own a 94 Citroen ZX TD and I am constantly having to repressurise the rear tyres ie on a weekly basis.
This is getting very frustrating! I have had the tyres and valves changed a number of times, yet the problem keeps reoccuring.

1. What type of nut is required to hold down
the clamp which holds the battery in place.
2. In the last few years I have replaced the battery 3-4 times. Generally a bettery only lasts around a year. What things should I look for to find out what's wrong?

ZX 1.4i ANTI FREEZE

by jonkw » 10 Feb 2001, 03:53

First post

You should have 3 to 4 litres neat antifreeze, and the rest water. Recommend using genuine Citroen Antigel to protect the engine against corrosion internally.

Does anyone know how much antifreeze to put in ? The owners manual is very coy about the whole thing saying you should ask your dealer to do it,and the Haynes workshop manual gives some details about doing the job but omits the essential information ie:how much or what percentage is required. With an alloy engine this apparently is vitally...

Aren't ZX's fantastic

by madpenguin » 09 Feb 2001, 16:58

First post

I can't agree more. ZX TD, bought with 54k on clock, 14 months later 150k on clock. Only things gone are alt belt tensioner, thermostat seal and headlight bulb.

Last post

ZX - a great car I'm sure you'll all agree. I bought an eight year old one with 92,000 miles and have proceeded to add 14,000 in 7 months enjoying every minute and only having to replace the tyres. Basically, the best car I have ever driven.

The engine code would be interesting as carb fed 1.1 shouldn't be able to give more than 40kW in standard tune. 11 trs replaced 11 tre around 1990. What kind of carburettor does your car have?

ZX top end ticking

by zx bomb » 08 Feb 2001, 01:00

I have a 1997 1.4i Citroen Leader.44K miles
It seems as it has a tappet like ticking from the top end of the engine.
Is there anyway of adjusting the camshaft clearances ? or is it likely that the cam is wearing out? Any thought/suggestions welcome.

Anti roll bar for AX 1.1TRS?

by paulivil » 09 Feb 2001, 11:21

First post

Torsion bars act as springs.

Last post

I was looking for a pair of anti roll bar for my ax. One of the UK dealer told me that I can install the front one, coz the rear one was block by the torsion bar. While I was looking for the rear anti roll bar and its axle or link-arm , and what's the price like and etc. By the way, can anyone tell me what's the purpose of torsion bar?

AX smoking too much!

by jonkw » 06 Feb 2001, 03:00

First post

You don't say what sort of AX you have- I'm assuming the petrol engined type! If so, it is very unlikely that simply putting unleaded in it would cause this trouble, basically, any petrol engined AX will run unleaded, no trouble, but you may have to reset the ignition timing on some models.
It sounds more to me like some fuel contamination, ie...

Last post

Story:
Put in unleaded by mistake, drove 400 yards and topped up with 4 star. Apart from huge smoke for two miles seemed OK.
Sold to co-worker who complained of fumes driving it home. Had all oil seals done, but still problems. Dealer said he has to remove engine as he has no idea. I've now got her back and need diagnostic advice, please.

Does this mean that I have no other option but to buy the kit from Citroen? :(
Oh well. it doesn't foggy that often anyway around here!

Hi.
Has anyone had any experience of fitting fog lights to a ZX? I have a 92 AuraD, which I would like to fit fog lights to, but I am not too keen on doing any major electrical wiring. I have seen from the wiring diagrams that the wires are there, but is it easy to install the switches in the dashboard? primarily, is it necessary to remove the...

On a general note

by n/a » 30 Jan 2001, 20:21

Just to let you know, that if you are fitting the new type Citroen/Peugeot oil filter,ref 1109R1 or 1109R0 (Purflux LS304),
in order to enjoy the longer service intervals that this filter offers, use only with semi or fully synthetic oil (total Q7000 or Q9000). This applies to vehicles after the 1999 model year.

for my citroen xantia S2 1998 1.9TD estate I bought what appeared to be a pretty good drivers door with great looking hinges after my original door top hinge failed miserably.

I had it sprayed the right colour from silver to dark blue and with some help managed to get it fitted to the car.

the top hinge lasted exactly four months before it...

The hardest part is getting the gap right between the front and rear doors and
a wooden wedge leaves your hands free to do this, if your way worked out for you thats great,

Hi everyone, not posted for a very long time with a young family and a so far relatively reliable Xantia I haven't had the time or need to. Anyway parking the car yesterday I pulled on the handbrake all ok then released it to roll forward a little, when pulling it up it slipped and went up a lot higher. It still bites very well (hill starts not a...
