Given the number of 'After-sales campaign' notices concerning Takarta Airbags I have been made aware of when looking up parts from PSA for members, I thought I would post a link to the following documentary that may be informative concerning the issue with these igniters.

According to Takata, the chemicals in the airbags’ explosive charge can...

My DS5, VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] should be eligible for recall, but my vehicle is in China and I cannot find the corresponding service provider. Could you please contact me officially and tell me how to handle this? ????_20251024002629_33_148.png

Disruption to Parts Service

TD ZX Headlights

First post

I too had a 94 ZX TD, and the headlights were really good, but got worse as the car got older. What I found was that the silvering inside the headlamp units had become dull and pitted, and this was restricting light output. I eventually replaced one of them as it was so bad. If you look through the lense, you can see what condition yours are in,...

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what headlamps to replace the standards headlamps with as I find they are very weak compared to other cars!

AX battery problems

Graham,
I would suggest you either have an auto electrician look at the charging system or alternatively put a meter on the car to check on the charge rate. It should charge at 13.8 to 14.6 volts from memory, & I would suspect that yours would be in excess of that. Probable cause a dodgy voltage regulator. My guess is that you're cooking your...

It sounds more to me like some fuel contamination, ie...

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.

The adjusters talked about on the actual headlights with two settings are for winter/summer driving I believe as I had these on my 205 GTi which I had to sell :cry: :( .

by TOMTOM » 25 Jan 2006, 11:03

First post

I recently needed to remove the clock from my Xantia 1.9TD to change the bulb - pre-facelift model, where the clock is situated below the centre ventilation nozzles and sits between the alarm light and the hazard warning switch, but after reading the Haynes manual I thought it might be easier to change the car.
Haynes would have you believe that...

Ah yes but how does a face lift Xantia clock come out. This is a genuine question mine keeps defaulting the time and date. Took the stereo out but still can't see anyway for it to come out or to check the cables.

PS Google tool bar spell check brings up Santa as an alternative for Xantia :lol:

2.0 HDI 110 chipping

by ebod » 14 Jan 2006, 23:09

First post

My dTI Laggy got shunted last week and is a write off , so I'm on the lookout for a high mileage (but mint ) Cit.

I don't need another family sized car , but I'm on the motorway a lot so I still need something reasonably comfy. So I've narrowed it down to a Xsara or a C5 circa 2001. The stock 110bhp Xsara has a 0-60 of 10.0secs which is pretty...

Last post

That's what you need. I had the same thing done on my 90bhp hdi. It's now up to a claimed 115bhp and it whips our company 110 bhp pug 405 estate. I would strongly recommend doing it to a 110 the results must be amazing as they are quick anyway. My turbo cuts in at lower revs and gives more boost making a lovely whooshing sound. Also my fuel...

Quick (hopefully) Sphere question.

by Guest » 02 Jan 2006, 17:41

First post

I have been offered a pair of new spheres for the rear of a Xantia saloon 1.9td / 2.0 8 + 16v. Cit code 95 666 862. My estate require 5272 40 spheres. Would it be possible to fit the 1st pair and what would the out come be i.e softer/harder ride e.t.c. Or is it a complete no no. If I don't want them he has someone else who want's them but he gave...

Last post

Cheers Simon, I will leave them alone. Could I have the wrong ones already then as the reason for wanting to change is that the rear suspension is very boomy in the drivers seat, especially the near side. The noise isn't so bad in the rear or passanger seats and It's still quite a smooth ride. I changed them last year with pattern ones from GSF...

Xantia Heated rear window not working

by wrinklet1 » 09 Oct 2005, 19:06

First post

Hi Guys, first posting on the NEW forum.........
My HRW wasnt working on my Xantia and after chacking the relay I decided to check power to the window itself. Power was there. :wink:
So I checked the earth wire, nothing, no circuit. So something said to me, remove the panel from off the tailgate. I did this and found the earth wire had burnt out,...

That's the only thing that hasn't failed on my boot so far. The lock doesn't always lock (I know problem dodgy solenoid just needs replacing), Wiper sometimes stops (open then close boot solves this), light doesn't come on (wiggle boot lid until it does), alarm sensor keeps triggering (cable tied it down to stop play where it clips on). Otherwise...

Sphere Replacement (not the usual question)

by 406 V6 » 29 Sep 2005, 03:01

First post

You could service only the front ones, has apparently there is no need to get rid of still good rear ones.
Those 20.000 miles were hwo long ago?
If i'm not mistaken, shelf life is around 2 years. You could always build yourself a sphere pressure tester to see how they are going along, and if needed regass the. By the time,as they weren't serviced,...

Last post

Hi everyone, Replaced all the sphere's about 20'000 miles ago with Amtex jobbies. Anyway the front is getting bouncy again. Should I just replace the two front one's or should I do the lot. I have seen Westroen sphere's on e-bay £150 for a full set that are up to genuine Citroen spec.
Does this look good or should I just change the 2 in Question....

Main Dealer sonic sensors (RichG)

by tanto » 14 Sep 2005, 15:20

First post

try contacting your local gsf store about the sensors you can get to the gsf site by clicking home at top of the page ask them if their sensors come in pairs or not

Last post

Are they £25ish each or for a pair. If each are they diffrent? My local dealer says they don't think they come in pair's and they may be diffrent ones for each side. Does anyone have the Citroen product code?

Alec,
If you can expain more clearly what you want I will try some experiments on my estate.
If I understand you correctly you mean that the side doors have a pert latched condition where they are neither fully shut but cannot be opened without using the handle. On my estate rear door I just let it shut under its own weight and it normally...

Last post

As you have probably seen in other posts my boot catch is duff. Could someone with an estate please let me know does your boot lid do just 1 click or 2 (like the doors) when you close it. I belive the problem with mine setting off the alarm is because it will only ever do the 1st click. If I open the boot and push the catch it does do 2 click's...

Evening everyone, Have been testing the alarm now for 5-6 days (see previous posts by me if you can be bothered, goes on a bit). Anyway the boot lock and interior sonic sensors are both at fault. I rang GSF Southampton today to get some sonic sensors but they have stopped selling them. I wondered can anyone suggest another supplier before I start...

Alarm Update

by Guest » 04 Sep 2005, 14:33

I have finally found the fault on the alarm. I mentioned a bit about it on my previous post about locating the ecu (at the time I couldn't locate the fault so I wanted to disconnect the alarm). Anyway I have traced it to the boot lock so I took of the boot card and closed the boot and set the alarm. Now all is o.k until you push against the boot...

Alarm ecu location 2000 W reg Xantia Estate.

by Guest » 30 Aug 2005, 16:10

First post

Just to add to this I have spoken to a couple of dealers who both couldn't pin point the ecu but one said it looked like it was under the bonnet (following pictures on his computer). Also they mention a key switch under the bonnet to disable the alarm/siren. But again knew nothing about it.

Last post

Morning everyone. Had the passenger seat out of the car today but no ecu I take it they (Citroen) have re-sited it but where. Any help today VERY much appreciated as I don't want to spend my week off fixing the car. Richard Gallagher are you out there.

Boot lock (at my wits end)

I have the same problem. Removed the trim and the liner to get at the actuating so establish the problem - it never missed a beat. So i cleaned and lubricated everything, still working, reassembled - same situation as before I stripped it. I cannot see how the trim would cause the problem. I am now begining to suspect a wiring problem as in a...

Last post

Sloblocks I Have just spent a good 3 hours at the w/end sorting out the boot lock only for it to fail as soon as I put all the liner back on (worked all day saturday + sunday then stopped sunday evening after I put it back together. I now think that it must be the electronic ram that operates the locking mechanism as sometimes it makes a noise but...

Rear suspension bearings.

by jeremy » 30 Jul 2005, 16:29

First post

Sounds like bearings - never done it myself but a search on here will reveal all. Its much the same as a BX so those postings will be valid as well.
Sounds nice to do both but near side do seem to fail first so its up to you. As they are separate you will be doing them one at a time anyway.
I think you will need a new plastic tube which comes in...

Morning everyone, Just got back from a lovely holiday in Brittany, although the car drove perfectly I am still getting this annoying clunk from the rear n/s suspension on larger potholes. On doing a search it looks like the suspension bearing has gone. Just one other thing, when I did some Citerobics before leaving the back was going up o.k but...

Fuse for Alarm.

First post

Marty said about fuse 17 I just found the post again. I wondered if that is on the older Xantias.

Last post

I put in a post recently about my alarm activating. I removed fuse 17 as suggested but the alarm still works. Looking in my manual fuse 17 is for the Auto Active gearbox (which I don't have). Any ideas on which one it is on the facelift Xantia. The only one that look's close is No 25 which says alarm warning lamp. But it also runs the radio and a...

First Xantia To Get An ASBO.

by Stempy » 12 Jul 2005, 22:48

First post

Well you could eliminate the volumetric ultrasonics by using the disable button when you lock it. If the alarm still goes off for no reason then at least you will know that it's probably not a duff transducer. Might be worth checking the state of the battery also, and the terminals which are less than reliable.

Last post

Hello everyone any help greatly accepted.
As you can see from the title I am not in my neighbours goodbooks. The Alarm keep's activating of it's own accord. Once it was just after I set it (going round closing the door's again seems to solve it) or it randomly activates at any time (99.9 % of the time at night AARRGGHHH). I have just found out...
