VIN VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

1999 HDi (110) Running OK until recently, had 3.5mm high pressure lines burst and patched, then auxiliary belt shreded after only 3 years and 14K and now another Core Plug has corroded (looks like external corrosion) and leaked coolant so I believe this might have led to the engine cutting out a couple of times after...

Hi folks,

I am having troubles determining engine, or to be more precise the RPO of the said engine on my Citroen C4 (2022). The dealership/authorized service pulled out information where I can see that my car has a DV5RC/EU63 engine with a serial number of 10 Q3DP 1343227, but from what I can find online, the recommended oil for that engine has...

I was just wondering if someone can confirm how adblue messages are normally displayed on the c4 grand picaso/spacetourer MK2, specifically the one with the e-ink speedo display.

Hi everyone! 2007 C4 Picasso, 1.6 HDI MCP6.
When you lock the car, it flashes once after about a minute, and then turns on the headlights about another minute later. Now, if the door is open, it turns on the headlights anyway. It doesn’t indicate that the driver’s side door is open. I’ve replaced the following, but the problem persists: BSM, BSI,...

For various reasons I'm swapping my fuel tank in my 1.9TD Dispatch

The main reason is it can never get the last ~20 litres from the tank - I'd previously replaced the sender with no change, so it must be the tank itself. In fact when I drained the removed tank completely last night and put the sender in, it still read as 1/4 full. Witht he sender...

My DS5 was written off the other week today I got a new to me C5 aircross on a 20 plate. Everything was fine until I got home. I went to put the child seat in and noticed the eear window on the passenger side half way open. I tried to close it and it goes up and then back down. I checked and there is nothing in rails like debris etc, sprayed wd40...

Feel so dumb =P~ I put one of my windows near wide open, now it won't go up.

Only the down button now results in a click sound, but no motor life. Up buttons do nothing at all.

Is there any chance that it's just a fuse has gone?
I'm also really hoping that there's a failsafe that allows the window, in this state, to be manually released and...

Hi,
I know there have been other threads about this, but hopefully this is worthy of a new one...
I've tried to diagnose a inoperative radiator fan on my 1.6HDi 16V. 2005 plate. Xsara Picasso Exclusive with fully automatic climate control.

Hi, my C4 Grand Picasso 1.6 hdi manual 2014 has a start stop not working problem. The cars starts and runs perfect. But when it starts it flashes up with a engine fault and the service light and eco off is on the dash all the time.

Hi.
I couldn't find a descent Relay van forum, and as I am a member on here for cars, thought ide ask here.

I fitted a new wiper motor 6 months ago to my 2008 Relay 2.2 hdi van, and they have been working ok. Today, I noticed that if I use any stalk position except fast, the wipers move, stop, move stop, bit by bit, all very spurious movements....

Hello fellow forum members

I have a Citroen C3 1.6 BlueHdi 100 from 2016. Over some time I have noticed that my car uses more and more oil.

I have checked for oil leaks but I could not find any. It is using about 6 lines on the oil dipstick after 10000 km. I have checked the intake to the turbo and there is a small puddle of oil on the bottom...

My daughter has a 2010 C3 Mk2 1.6 VTI Auto.

Recently, the cooling fan started coming on when she stopped/parked up the car. It stays on for about 5 mins and then goes off. I have driven it the last couple of days and this also seems to apply when driving. If you come to a roundabout or traffic lights and have to stop, then the fan quite often...

Hello everyone,

I realise this question (or similar) has been raised before but it would be helpful to get up to date responses. Can anyone recommend a tyre fitter/outlet who will balance Xantia centreless wheels in Leeds, or even in West Yorkshire?

Hi all!

My 2009 x7 randomly cut out yesterday.

After about 30 minutes of driving, the engine faded out over about 2 seconds, and then stopped.

I restarted the car, and it would cut out again after 20 seconds.

I plugged a computer in and got errors

Greetings from Finland!

I recently bought a -96 zx 1.4i 2door manual and was thinking about swapping the car with the 1.8i 16v XU engine, i now have the KFX engine i think.
Is the swap a big hassle, or could it be done with relative ease? Does anyone here have experience on the subject? My biggest question is, that do you need the transmission...

I bought a set of spheres for this last year, fitted the new front outers OK but the inner one is almost impossible. A very kind member in Holland told me how to, not easy but possible. It involved removing the n/s drive shaft and unscrewing the sphere with a cold chisel, something I have done in the past but at least I have been able to see it!...

Hj all, our generally very reliable 2.0 HDI has a coolant leak. It broke down on the M5 last week and despite the roadside recovery chap topping it up and pressure testing it. 4 miles later it ordered my wife to stop so it was recovered.

I've pressurised it to 20 psi and it does lose about 2 psi and about 8mm fluid height from the middle of the...

Good evening.
I have a 2017 C4 Grand Picasso 120HP Diesel. When I press the accelerator pedal to ~3800 rpm, I get an error for ABS/ESP.
This happens both when driving and standing on place. I checked it with Diagbox and the error is C1391 Engine torque not cleared fault . What could this be about?

Thanks in advance.

Hello all. Newby here. I'm hoping one of you can help. I'm baffled utterly. We have changed the Brake Cylinder and Servo unit though it was tough. While we were at it we changed rear brake pads. It was bled properly using diagnostic tool. This is a Citroen Grand Picasso 1.6 Diesel Auto, 2014. The Pedal seemed to sink still though not to the floor...

Good Afternoon,

The car in general feels good, with very good body...

Hello Guys,

I've been struggling with getting this issue solved, been to lot of local car electricians, only thing that they've said was let's replace the alternator,

I’ve just bought a ds3 2017 with 87k on to resell, how ever when you start it up hot or cold it splutters for a second then runs sweet after that, drives perfect. Just had to it serviced today hoping that it would fix it how ever it’s still there

Hi,

When pushing the truck's opening button you can here some electrical action occuring, but the trunk won't open

Has someone encountered a similar situation?

What is the solution? Is it necessarily the button's mechanism that needs to be replaced? And if so, can it be replaced without being able to open the trunk?

Thanks

Hi guys, I have possible problem (still not sure is it normal or a problem) with the cabin heating. As we have entered November the temps have dropped enough for the cabine heating to be used. That said, I just can't get enough heat, no matter which temperature I set.

I have an C5 Exclusive from 2010 with auto a/c. I did noticed that when set to...

Hi

I know there have been other posts about this but have reached my wits end with the non-functioning heater blower. It is a '02 xsara picasso, with climate control.

The blower stopped working all together. I have replaced the blower motor (which is the 2 plug version with built in resistor) and the wiring from the ignition. There is power...

Hi,
My wife has a 2014 Citroen C4 Picasso Airdream Automatic. It’s done about 45,000 miles.
It seems as though the clutch is slipping. I’ve done some research which suggests this auto box is a basically an adapted manual box and this is common.
Questions for you experts…..
1. Is it common at only 45k?
2. Is it worth getting it repaired?
3. Does...

Today I noticed that my AC is not working anymore on my 2015 Citroen C4. 11 months ago I had the AC serviced (vacuum check, AC refilled) and it worked fine throughout the summer. When the AC was refilled, the technician noticed that in 9 years with no service to the AC, there was barely any gas gone (about 75 grams of the 425 total). During that...

Most times when I start it there is a whizzing noise for about a second as the 'bendix gear' cog retracts from flywheel (assume that's what it is, no noise once started and running).
Is this just a lack of oil on the mechanism or something...
