Hi All, New to the Forum and hope to get some help and advice on my C4GP 2011. :-D

I also break the odd car here and there. I've another Ph2...

Hy I'm Sergio from Italy.
I own my second C5 and i've beed happy with both, only reason i replaced the first one was to get a better equiped model and more importantly automatic.
On this forum I found a lot of important information in general and on automatic transmission maintenance before I even bought the car.

Thank you all for creating and...

Hello,

I'm a relatively new owner of a 2009 Peugeot 308 SW (after owning a german 1Z 1.9 TDI for 15 problem free years), I found this site when I googled 1.6 HDI related infos to know better this car. It's from Italy, with no service record and low mileage (109.000 kms) if I believe the dash (I'm sceptic :) )

Hello, my name is Petar from Belgrade, Serbia. I have a small workshop where I repair vehicles in my free time. I am currently driving a peugeot 307 sw 1.6hdi 110 hp which is in good condition with good equipment for that model.

Have been browsing this site for a long time so thought I would join

Such a great site

Keep up the good work

Hello,

I am very seriously considering about buying a Citroen C15 van as a daily driver to eventually replace my Citroen Dispatch van when the lease ends in September 21.

Hi all I've just joined the forum to ask for some technical info on the psa 1.6hdi engine fitted in my son's dispatch which has a terminal problem.

I have had many Citroens over the years most notably a 2.0hdi berlingo which I purchased new and kept for 12 years and 180000 trouble free miles.

I'm new to the forum, but I've been surrounded by Citroens for a long time. The CXs have been brilliant at carrying my 6 kids around until they all jumped onto motorbikes.
Now I'm searching for good used tyres with the help of the CCC, and I'm desperate for just one CX25 Turbo 2 wheel. Chris Browne

Hello, lovely people. Last week my little Corsa failed its MOT. :cry: My OH (who doesn't drive) said Can we please get a 'new' car that I can fit my fishing gear in? So, I'm now the proud owner of a (2007) Citroen C8.
I reckon he can fit a fishing rod or two in that without it poking me in the ear!! :-D

Hello,
first of all I want to thank this forum for all the information you collected here over the years. When researching there were quite a few things I found here, that I could not find anywhere else.

Hello all. Having searched forums for months this looks like the one I needed to join. I've driven Peugeots for over 30 years now, have always maintained and fixed them myself, and have learned a certain amount about them and their foibles in the process. I'd be happy to share whenever possible and I hope to learn too so I can realise the full...

Hey all,
Been lurking for a week or so, thanks to all who have posted advice, some of it has been invaluable!

I've bought a lovely little berlingo 2005 1.9D a couple of weeks ago, she needs a fair bit of work and I've already sorted the brakes and oil cooler issue. Which was impressive for me, having to learn as I go...
I'm doing it up in the...

I used to own a 1.1, great fun to drive and no big problems until around 180k. I eventually had to scrap it due to a leaking headgasket. Watch for water in the rear light units and the warping of the front disc brakes.Parts used to be cheap because most of them are the same as on a saxo/106. But that was 8 years ago.

Hi all after lurking for long enough I've decided to post something.
