Hi all

New user (just donated as well, such a great forum) and I have a fairly recently bought C4 GP 2015 B78 1.6 Blue DHi EAT6.

I have no heat in the cabin though(just a little bit on the left side, drivers side is stone cold). The engine does not overheat and checked the coolant level, which is ok (looks brown and nasty - will replace as soon...

Hi all!

I just noticed that there is a hole here. Is a screw missing?

Hello everyone, I have another P error while driving. It is error P0495. I was able to delete the error, but I think it's a matter of time before it comes back. Where should I start my search? Replace relay or fan?

I recently became a happy owner of my second x7 in life. Its a 2.2 hdi automatic 2014.
I do have a problem with a stiff front left corner when driving over bumbs. The car feels normal driving over bumps with the right corner. My amateur guess is a bad front left sphere?

Witch sphere is the right one for my car? My plan is to replace it myself...

Hi,

I encountered the following issue with my Citroën C5 Aircross: When slowing down, the car's wheels locked up at around 20 km/h, and after that, I received error messages for cruise control malfunction and transmission fault. The fault memory stored the error codes P07E6 77 and U1209 81.

At the authorized dealer's service, the transmission...

Hi All,

I' have a 2015 1.6 bluehdi 100 and have recently repaired a common oil leak coming from the Camshaft carrier which was going down the back of the engine.

Hi All.

My 2.7diesel C6 has been unused for about 5 years since I encountered a problem.

I was stupid enough to lend it to a (trusted) employee and the car returned with issues.

A garage claiming to know what they were doing - didn’t !

It may (probably does) need a new radiator and it may have a failed head gasket.

I need a proper Citroen C6...

Good morning,
I have a citroen 2007 c4 picasso grand. After 1 year I got it, a fault U1208 appeared.

I went to the garage with a maxisys diagnostic tool where he tried to delete the fault but it came up again.We checked the four...

Hi folks,

Good afternoon. I have an issue with my central locking on 2007/8 Mk1 Picasso. I don’t have a remote fob for it to check if it’s any different. My one key if I use it in the drivers door it will lock all doors. If I use it to unlock the doors it wont open the front passenger door. But if I use the key in the passengers door it locks and unlocks...

I'm on my 2nd window and mirror control unit on my 2010 C5 Tourer. The first unit was replaced after the one-touch function on the driver's side stopped working, and that was in October 2022. I bought a 2nd hand one on ebay from Lithuania, and it worked fine until 2 years later, when the same thing happened (one-touch function on the driver's side...

I’m a new member, so please forgive me if I make any etiquette mistakes. The car is showing a “LH dipped beam fault” but it’s not the bulb or fuse. When testing with a voltmeter and both LH and RH dipped beam fuses removed. I’m getting a strange reading of approx 7.5 v on the output side of the LH fuse holder and zero on the RH as a comparison....

Hello,
Armed with diagbox (9,91) I thought I'd dig around the settings and see if I coud find the one for the mirrors folding automaticly when you lock the car. I've dug as much as it felt safe but no luck. Does anyone know where this setting is in DiagBox or if it is a misprint in the manual where it says this is the way to do it? I don't get...

I have a 2009 C5 X7 2.2 HDi Exclusive Tourer. I bought the car in November 2024, almost straight away the wipers failed in the rain. The master motor was replaced with a used part and all worked well until a day of heavy rain last week. This is the second faliure in only a couple of months. Scuttle drains are clear and water doesn't appear to be...

HI everyone,
Looking for a cruise control wiring diagram for Citroen c2 1.4 HDI (2006). I have Sedre downloaded on my computer but it seems not to be complete as there's no diagram of cc for C2 (there is one for C3 Pluriel, but I am not sure if ECU's are the same).
I retrofited cc in the car, telecoded cc both in injection ECU and BSI, checked...

Hi All
I'm having an intermittent problem with the wipers on my C4 where when using the single down press, instead of just one or two sweeps to clear the screen, the wipers just go on for ages.
They do stop eventually although in one instance they stopped in the upright position and I usually start to use the wash facility after a while to prevent...

Hi there,
I have an issue with my blower motor on my citroen c4 grand picasso 2016 (diesel). You can hear ticking at slow speeds where it sounds like something is trapped or one of the fins has broken, and at higher speeds to makes a noise like a jet engine. I suspect that I need to replace it, however I don't know exactly where it is located to...

In Lexia, under the ECU configuration menu for my Citroën C2 VTS (ME7.4.5), there’s an option to switch between long gearbox and short gearbox.

I’m trying to figure out what exactly this setting changes. I’ve checked Citroën Service Box and even compared ECU flash files but couldn’t find any clear differences.

Does anyone know what this setting...

Hello

I am exporting a RHD C3 Picasso to France and will need to change over the reversing and fog lights in order to be compliant with the French MOT. Is it possible to just swap the unit over and change the wiring loom plugs in a junction box? Any guidance gratefully received.

Citroen Jumpy 2012. My old radio didn't work well. Bought a new (used) radio on Internet. Plugged it in, it worked, but it beeps. Read about that. It's a theft protection. Ok. I can find radio codes and more on internet and how to change the VIN-number in the configuration of the radio that seems to be the problem. But I wonder how do I change the...

I have a 2013 Citroen DS5 turbo-petrol (THP155) that has covered 80,000 kms and I am expecting to have thermostat problems at some stage. My understanding is that the design of the thermostat has been progressively modified to overcome structural issues (cracking of the housing ) and that the wax pellet unit was replaced with an electronic one....

Until now I've only had cars with manual...
