And yes, try taking the battery off for a while, also check the relevant fuses in the cabin fuse box.

Yep - the shiny curved piece is the first bit to be removed with 6 undoubtedly stubborn clips holding it in..... probably reduced to 4 and a bit clips by the time it's been prized out :wink:

Could you share the configuration files changes to lower the resolution of Lexia to 1024x600 ?

I've found it... C:\APP\LEXIA\EXE\ecran.ini

Change hauteur_ecran to 600 :)
Just wanted to dig this thread up to confirm that this does indeed work. :)

Today I installed Diagbox 7.06 on a Samsung NC110 netbook borrowed from work (1.5Ghz atom, 2GB...

From not having any idea what the noise was coming from (and looking like we'd never identify it) to fixing it and proving its fixed must be very satisfying :)

Extremely! My face must have changed a lot from the concerned look when I thought it was broken, to realising it was fixed.

I guess the moral of the story is that yes its normal for the...

I've used genuine head gaskets on the XUD, despite their expense as although its not difficult its a long job and not really want to do it again too soon. The rest of the 'head set' I got a good quality one from a factors, gen H/G itself from the dealer.

The last one was on my own 205TD, that was still OK about 80K maybe 90K after I changed it...

Depends on the engine etc, the additive ECU.s do fail, showing this fault on Lexia.

Well to conclude...with the help of easydiagnostics I've managed to get the car out of eco mode, it was in factory mode for some reason. Lets hope it wasn't in factory mode because of some battery drainage issue or alike. Very happy at the moment as I can now listen to the radio with the engine off, plus the interior lights work and I get flashing...

Jim @ easydiagnostics sorted me out with the kit and now the radio has stopped beeping....thank god!

Thanks Andy

battery will fit was worried incase not enough ampage to start the car

BEst way to change is start car leave it running remove better while still running while paying attention and pop new one on.

Saves the ECU going screwy

this is the problem that its all airbags have a fault, open circuit to all airbags and it is a six seater with all single seats in rear, and i have had no issue with any of the usual Comm 2000 complaints, everything else works on the car works fine and no Glitches before or after installing new airbag ecu, and the only fault on there about the...

If the undertrays are original factory fitment the tester is just blowing hot air and looking for something to pick holes in... :roll:

They might as well say engine obscuring inspection of some brake lines in engine bay ... :roll:

I don't know how other people adjust the height, but here's how I do it:

If the roll bar clamp has been disconnected for any reason you have to get it into the ballpark first, I do this by leaving the clamp loose, then using the manual height lever to adjust the height approximately right - when the clamp is loose the high and low settings on the...

Ive never changed a crank bolt on any HDi Ive done belts on...

but MAKE SURE while the locking pin is in the TDC hole behind the starter, of which I use a GOOD strong allen key, Tighten up the crank bolt with the fly wheel locked and use locktite on the thread!!! They WILL and DO rattle loose on the XUD and these, and you dont want that either!...

I put Nexen tyres on my 2.2 and it was quieter and gave a better ride than the 2.0. with good tread but tyres unknown to me.

Peugeot use the same colour and call it Diablo red.
Halfords colour match is quite good for this colour I have found.

For a decent job you will want to use clear lacquer and when finishing adhere to recommendations for metallic paint.

There are several ways of sorting this.

A pump from a similar year may well pop on and just be coded in, although you could swap the module from your old pump and then you'd in theory not need it coding as the 'code' is in the module on the pump side (well part of it is but that's irrelevant) , the problem I have here is I'm not 100% if you can...

Thanks for the help.

Is the code 4 letters? I think i have it but the sticker on the door is worn badly as the strike plate is damaged causing the door to rub.

Thanks Ben. I'll use the blue stuff in that case :)

David.

^ Good advice. Will do. I'll check the tyre pressure again after a week or so.

Ho well think ive got to bottom of problem have to try to get in and get door card off? then de-armour drivers door lock box covering it then break lock as it's failed by Citroen guy that knows about these as he does when they get them in.

the fog and reversing lights are no brainers, it was just the headlamps I was trying to avoid changing, however, they are only £300 a pair, so not too bad. thanks for the feedback

It does not tell me the type. Not than I can see anyway. Just says its not telematics. And no cd either. Which is odd as it has a CD player.

I'm very happy with my 90bhp C5 HDI estate, previously had a 110bhp saloon and surprisingly there feels very little difference in power, although my poverty spec doesn't show it's MPG I'm confident it's getting 60mpg +, best of all I can park it anywhere and no longer worry if it get scratched or dented ( unlike the wife's BMW).. Luvin it!

Here you go Paul cheaper than anything you will find at the dealer and always to hand :wink:
Having said that my set didnt have a seal that would fit the bottom plug of the reguylator as that is rather chunky but there are ones that can be used in place of the one used on the plastic return housing, the original i flat like a sphere seal but an o...

I have had this on all my Xantias and it seems to be more prevalent the older the LHM is, and the LHM certainly thins out as it gets warmer with use. The LHM also seems to expand with temperature. I had the situation once where the level was just on the borderline of activating the low level warning light, never any indication on level ground, but...

Or yo could get a disc from your local dealer at the princely some of 5p, yes a whole 5 pence. 4p for the disc and of course 1p for Mr Osbourne. :evil:

well since I have had the turbo overboost problem sorted I seem to have lost the blocked particulate filter warnings, early days but fingers crossed I may be OK

Don't worry, it will return!

Heya, I got these ECP parts.

There is an o ring included (fingers crossed this is the right one).

And for anyone wondering what you get please see pictures below. Thought they might be helpful :)

Cheers, romie

Haha I never get overtaken unless I'm parked and I do pretty much everyone at th3 lights :)

You can disable the internal sensors. There a button the dash somewhere. Will try to look later.

picked it up yesterday

fitted perfect

but added some glue to keep it on (Yes i know if i have to look at wiper going to be a rse)

So, with the help of my girlfriend's tiny hands I managed to get the pumps off at the weekend, and it quickly became clear that no amount of fiddling with connections, hitting with a hammer, swearing or weeping was going to make them work. So, after failing to persuade any mail order companies to send me one first class today I went and bought...

Lovely ending :)

oddly where they make these i drive past every morning....

What's this diode mod and where is The hydro ecu?

So what would you suggest...I want soft soft...non hydro spheres for any model?

If the pedal's rock solid it's unlikely to be a 'bleeding' problem, more likely that there's a mechanical problem in the pedal or associated parts.

Just the job, thanks clogzz.

ou less of the old,
i have only just reached bus pass maturity :shock: :-D :roll: :wink:

spoz now i can officially have senior moments and be a dirty old man/git

I guess no one knows about it

Thanks for that, I thought it must pull off, I must be getting weak in my old age.

Peter

Be careful here, the reason why you must remove the belt is, if the tensioner pointer has moved the slack in the belt will be in the wrong position hence taking it off starting with crank, pump, cam or whichever way they say to route it. You must adhere to there instructions, if the slack is not taken up in the right position, the belt could...

If its the same as the C5 press and hold the T Trafficmaster button in for about 5 seconds to turn it off.

That doesnt work on my 03....it's a pita

In Citroen paralance, the Mk 1 Berligo is up till they changed the head lights (around 2001/2?), Mk2 has the bigger headlights, but original shell (also known as M59), then Berling 3 is 08(abouth then?) onwards with the new shape (also known as B9).

Were the rear tyres bigger or smaller than the front to trigger the problem ?

When I was measuring the ride height on my Xantia recently I checked the rolling radius of the front and rear tyres, both 205/60/15 but different brands, and the rear tyres were 20mm larger in diameter than the fronts despite the fronts being brand new... So there can...
