Forum hanging when posting

by xantia_v6 » 25 Sep 2026, 23:04 » in Forum News, Announcements and Issues

First post

As we have all noticed, the forum software has for some time had a tendency to hang, sometimes causing a Cloudflare timeout, leading to duplicate posts. I investigated this a month or so ago, but did not reach any definitive conclusion about the cause, although my main suspect is the we server package.

Early today I rolled back that package to an...

I did get a cloudflare check just now after pressing submit. Same thing happened last night when I posted the message before this one.

Disruption to Parts Service

As you may be aware, the consolidation of the old PSA to the Stellantis Group systems has resulted in both a merge of data tools and a requirement to migrate PSA accounts to Stellantis Systems.

This has caused some problems for organisations like ours and the Team are currently looking at the best way forward. This...

It's easiest to jack the car up and do it from underneath, you can see what you're doing then. Should be a (relatively) straightforward job then. As Malcolm says, check it's the right cable.

Fingers crossed. It isn't difficult to replace the spheres. You only need to do them up hand tight (they will tighten up further over time, so it is a good idea to loosen them off every 6 months or so, and then tighten them back up to hand tight). Do you have enough LHM fluid?

Recently taken ownership of a 2000 W plated Xantia 2.0 HDi Saloon, in a fetching Green. At the moment she's a lovely low mileage example that was owned by an elderly couple, and was maintained to a very high standard, using...

Welcome to the Forum. Please make sure to follow the service intervals at the very minimum (shorter intervals if possible) as some of the PSA HDi (the 1.6 DW6 unit comes to mind) engines have an issue if they not well looked after (please don't think I am being condescending).

Hi there, my name is Ian and I have a 1995 Citroen Synergie that is just starting to develop many little problems. I think I'm quite a good mechanic but right now I'm starting to wonder :roll:

My other interests are restoring vintage stationary engines, hunting and target shooting with my air rifles, trying to save the world with my wacky...

Last post

Now I'm going to have to clean the Synergie aren't I! :roll: That's if the clutch holds up [-o<

does that mean i have to attach chevrons to the front of the VW Polo i will likely turn up in :roll: #-o :( , that is if i cant raise the road tax fee for my BX TZD by then [-o< [-o< :-D :wink:

any donations welcome :lol: :-D :wink:

Hello from a new member

by Matt H » 10 Mar 2014, 22:02

First post

Thought I would pop a quick message on here to introduce myself.

Some of you might know me from the BX Club forum, as I'm a big fan of the BX 16v in particular - and have a black Phase 2 16v that I hope to never sell! Having recently taken on a bit of a Xantia Activa project, I thought I should join up here and hopefully find some friends and...

Last post

Thanks for the welcome.

As for the height corrector - I believe it is free and working, but there is something missing off it (not exactly sure what he said, definitely not the linkage though). Priority is getting the spheres done, then at least the car is semi-drivable.

Anyone know the best place to buy ten new correct Activa spheres from?...

I'm a 21 y/o DIY mechanic with a 206 2.0 HDI. I've been meaning to sign up for a while and I've finally got round to it! I've had my pug for nearly 3 years now and recently had it remapped by hdi-tuning.co.uk to a conservative 120 bhp and it's sublime. It'll certainly be nice to talk to some people who don't automatically say it's french so its...

I am not new to this site having had several BX's, Xantias and Pugs, but I now have another Pug, a 206 2.0 HDI so I thought I would get back on the forum.

Just joined the forum, so thought that it would be polite to say hello before posting any questions.

Currently have a 1982 Citroën Acadiane van, pulled out of someone's barn after 2 years and then driven 40 miles home.

Am in the process of finishing the necessary repairs. Has been repainted. Did lots of welding (with an arc welder - how i...

Here's a pic of the whole thing, as taken today.

Hi all joined up as I've just purchased a 1982 Peugeot 104 sr, 59k factory electric windows and tin sun roof still has the original pioneer stereo to, looks to be in very good order but we shall see.

Pug is pretty good, ran the 100 miles home no major issues did have to drive it on the choke, but fixed that and tweaked the carb when I got home. Its running well and in surprisingly good original condition, just needs a fault tracing on o/s rear indicator and a new washer motor/pump. The only unoriginal part is the gear knob, I did find the...
