French Car Forum

New member here: I hope this isn't already covered in the Forum. My daughter has a 2019 1199cc (petrol) Berlingo.

The garage has told us that the DMF needs to be replaced as a matter of urgency. I am pretty sure that the garage can be trusted and that a new flywheel really is required. They mentioned that if the flywheel actually fails, it can...

Hello this is my first post, hope you can help me with a problem that has bestowed my c3 picasso
basically the door mirrors are not folding together and sometimes they only move a little bit and then stop.
they do this using the remote to lock the car, or the switch on the armrest.

Hi all.
Looking to see if anyone can shed some light on my problem . I've done a lot of cleaning and replacing parts on the engine. Things like glow plugs , Map , Mass sensor erg valve intercooler and associated pipes .
I've completed several resets and scans using multieuscan, detected error codes because of work undertaken. Cleared all old...

New here. This forum looks great by the way.

My C5 2019 Aircross passenger front window bounces back when attempting to close. I've tried resetting the anti-pinch but when I do the long pull on the switch after inching the window closed, it just goes back to partially open.
I've noticed that the trailing edge of the window when fully opened seems...

Hi to all and Happy New Year.

Starting off the New Year, I have a really annoying judder on this Berlingo which existed from new and has been back to the Citroen main dealer, from whom purchased, a couple of times without them being able to replicate the problem sufficiently which is intermittent but quite disconcerting when it appears.

My Citroen Berlingo Romahome Duo, Engine, 2001, 1.9D (1868cc) DW series WJZ is in need of replacing because things like conrods and pistons and rings are very hard to find.
What other engines would fit like say a Peugeot Partner 1.9D ?
I've looked at one on ebay with 190,000 miles on it ! No thanks.
Can I fit something a bit newer and still work...

Both dipped headlights have stopped working at the same time. Fuses are good so are the bulbs. My next thought is the relay but I’m not sure where it is located on the 2015 model, can anyone help?

Hello,

sorry for keeping asking about the oil. I just keep getting different answers.

The car is Citroen C1 2018 998cc, 1KR-FE engine.

I was told by the Citroen importer in my country I need to use 5W30 B71 2297 oil.

But then I found the service manual for the twin car - the Toyota Aygo 2018 and it's written there that 0W20 would be the best,...

Hello,

I have a Citroen C1 2018 and I searched online for canister filter but couldn't find any picture or video related to it.

What is it? All I found was the engine air filter and the cabinet air filter

Hello,

A few years ago I had an aux cable always plugged into the socket and one day someone applied too much force on the connector, breaking it, and also damaging the socket, because from that day the socket stopped working (tested with a few working cables).

This is the socket I'm talking about (It's not my photo but I'm not near my car now...

So my pesky C5 X7 is at it... again...!
:oops:
This time I had it cut out on me, which had me wondering if the fuel filter needed doing... so I ordered one at the weekend.

But then today, on the way to work, it spluttered and cut out on a roundabout. When I restarted it (while moving) I got a Depollution system faulty message, and the engine...

Forumers,

For my citroen C5 X7 i use the Diagbox.
When there is an error in the injection part, then you have to fill in the Km/miles before you can erase the error.
It's keep track how many time's it's been used, the maximum is 40.
Now my question is, is it possible, to reset this counter?
I know some computer in the car keeps track on it,...

Hey everyone! I'm a proud owner of a Ph2 Xsara VTS. I was just wondering, bar the obvious exterior and interior differences as well as the move to Multiplex as well as changing the engine options, what other differences were there between the Pre and Post-Facelift coupe models? I heard the chassis was strengthened but could somebody enlighten me...

2 of us drive our van - citroen dispatch 2015 and my mate reckons the van has a mind of its own, he describes it as when going round a left hand corner at a sensible speed the van suddenly snaps harder to the left and he has to correct it by steering right. He says this only happens occasionally. the van doesn't slide, he says its like someone...

Is this an easy job? and do I need any particular anti freeze, i.e. OAT or can ordinary bluceol be used.

Hi guys. For few days I cannot find any info on the location of the flasher relay in my car. The best presumption I can do it is one of the integrated relays in the BSM (prf1), maybe R6, but cannot be sure at all. Anyone know if I can change it?

Thank you!
Vladimir

Hi all,

I'm guessing this has cropped up numerous times but I've not been able to find anything too specific to my problem.

Recently picked up a c8 and whilst I can select every gear ok there is a definite looseness and vagueness to the gearchange (manual) with quite a lot of free play in the stick.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix?...

Hi all
Today after a shopping, turn on the car and could see engine light on. arrived home shut down the car, so now the radiator fan became working for about a minute. came into the car and see that the gauge of the water was at normal (middle) position.

I'm just back from offshore, and the Citroen is lying slammed down at the workshop looking like something out of 'Stanced Nation'. It's not a break of containment in the hydraulics, as it still has all its LDS. However, this evening, I'm Grumpy AF, so I'm not in the mood to do any more forum archaeology looking for old but pertinent threads. I've...

Hi, I need your help.

I had some work carried out at a Citroen specialist on my 2009 C5 2.0d 16v a while a go. After, the front suspension was sitting a little high. Long story short I only got around to it when I needed CV joint and suspension arm replaced and MOT.

My Citroën C5 X7 needs at least its rear saucers replaced. The ride now is rock hard. The height is still fine.
I knew this in spring, and booked it in to be done at my local dealer. Unfortunately Citroën don't appear to have any in all of France and the car is still waiting for the job to be done.

I need to take the car to the UK and back in the...

Hello everyone, I have a 2013 Citroen c3 picasso and would like to know whether my car takes Eolys or adblue and where is the refill position

Hi all,

I've recently picked up a C8 HDi and am very pleased with it, really comfy cruiser.

At present I only have 5 seats (2 outers for second row and 1 in the rear). There are plenty kicking around on eBay but my question here was whether anyone knew whether seats from later cars might fit in their place?

Seats out of something like a 5008...

Dear guys,

I got the car 2 years ago and up to this date i changed front brake rotors and pads 3 times. Something is causing the brake discs to warp but what?

In this period i changed right and left front wheel hub and last week we saw that front control arm bushings are erupt and changed them with lemförder bushings. Also the mechanic said that...

Happy New Year too all.

Buying wiper blades for my '54 C8, I've just realised that they are really niche - they fit the first few years of 2nd-gen Eurovans and nothing else. I'm wondering how long before Bosch stop making them...

Citroen c5x7 with hydro-pneumatic suspension.

When turning the steering wheel left (even slightly) while the car is moving, a continuous squweel sound appears (similar to what a cricket makes...) , it stops when going back straight (when turning right it doesn't happen as well).
The serpentine belt is new, the pulleys seem ok (not loosened), the...

I have a 2012 C5 X7 1.6HDI VTR+ DV6C VIN VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] which I have not long owned and recently it had a problem with an injector (no.2) that shorted the solenoid and was replaced and the correct code was entered into the Engine ECU.
I have noticed that there is two leaks of exhaust fumes upon starting. It is likely these leaks were already...

Hello.

The subject is a Citroen Jumpy 2007-2016.
Because it's a van, it was possible do order it without any factory radio, but with the regular small monochrome display. In this scenario, there are 3 buttons beside the lcd to control it. Picture attached.

I would like to retrofit this, but I can't seem to find any oem number for the parts or...

Good Morning,

Hi,

Referring to my post

Replaced the whole timing gear ( chain, tensioner, chain guides, bolts, all 3 gears ) including the 2 sealing ring of the VVT gear ( at the inlet camshaft ) to make sure all parts related to the timing are replace. I noticed some improvement in acceleration . After driving about 100 KM I felt that the ECU put the...

Just a quick question. If I replace my alarm unit (battery failing) does the replacement have to be programmed or will it just fit?

Many Thanks for any help

After fueling up today, a couple of miles up the road the van displayed an amber warning light with an engine fault message. The only obvious thing i could find was a module/valve/part hanging by 2 hoses, which was rubbing the road surface. It appears this is normally clipped to the side of the eyols tank (left side of van, mid poin and has become...

Hi all, I'm having several intermittent faults with my 2007 C4 Picasso 1.6 HDi.

1) Handbrake faulty
2) ESP/ASR fault (which I presume is linked to the handbrake issue)

Both of these correct themselves if I turn off the ignition and start the car again but return, sometimes very quickly sometimes I can drive for quite a while before they return....
