hi hi am looking for an live feed for a camera in the boot area of my c1 2016 only live when ignition is on ,,thanks

This is something trivial, but its bugging me! :evil: Up until recently, the electric seat operation on my C5 has been relatively silent, just the sound of the motor running. Yesterday, the driver's seat started to make a 'click' when any of the switches are operated - more specifically, its when whichever switch is released. Its presumably a...

Hi guys,

I have a 2017 Citroen Relay 35 2.0 Bludhdi Van done about 190k miles,

Needed some thoughts on the coolant loss I am having, following a 200ish mile drive the other week I noticed a coolant explosion on the opposite side to the expansion tank (passenger side) coolant was everywhere on the underside of the bonnet and the passenger side...

Hi all,
I have the pleasure of investigating an intermittent non crank situation on a 2007 C4 Grand Picasso, manual with petrol engine (1.8?).
After being driven for around 1/2 hour and parked it will sometimes not restart. Ignition comes on but will not crank.
Apparently it has had a new starter motor. I have tested the battery and it is good. I...

Hi guys. :-)
First time poster here.
I have a 96 xantia 1.9td hatch with a leaking lhm pump.
The leak is coming from the bottom bolt/union on the lhm pump. An o ring is fitted on the union but my car keeps shredding the o ring after a few days driving. :(
Would anybody have any ideas?

I'll put up pictures later if needed.
Thanks

Hi folks,

I've replaced the offside lower arm, droplinks, inner tie rod, steering rack boot and track rod end without any real issues. I'm now on the nearside and foolishly thought it would be the same. How wrong I was!!

I got everything dismantled ok but am now struggling with figuring out the arrangement for replacing the small outer dust...

Hi all.

2010 Nemo automatic. Cut out pulling away at a junction, now stuck in gear (although dash display says it’s in neutral). Now can’t start the car.

At a bit of a loss where to start diagnosing the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciate

Hi everyone, Can anyone help please:

My 2012 (62 reg) C4 grand Picasso is showing ABS, ESP, and parking brake fault intermittently. Recently I changed the rear brake disk and calipers (as it was very Low). But the problem started way before that. The electronic parking brake can be engaged and disengaged manually by pressing the brake button. I...

Hi all,

I'm new member here. Just bought my first Citroen. There is couple of issues with the car that I was were of when I bought the car, but bought it anyway as is .
One issue is with the cooling fan. It is running all the time. When I start the engine it will start running immediately at full speed and keep running some time after engine is...

Hi
i have a 2012 diesel 1.6 hdi c3 picasso.
have since it was brand new , no accidents .
the steering wheel is pulling to the right, and in both front wheels, i have a wear in the inner side.
i did replaced the strut, (to KYB), And the suspension arm.
i understud that the camber cant be adjusted in that car? what are my options?
why did it happen ?

Daft question, but would I need to depressurise the suspension to do a front droplink on our C5 x7 with hydractive 3+? Normally I'd have thought not, however, I'm aware that the front drop link is also the hub to strut retaining bolt, so with suspension pressure that could be pinching the bolt.

The front left fog lamp grill of my citroen C5 2005 MK2 has fallen off. Its very hard to find. If anyone has access to a scrap car and can ship me the grill, I would be gateful and be happy to pay a reasonable sum.

Hi everyone
I have a low milage Xantia XUD9 with some oil leak issues.

The back of the engine was full of oil gunk when i got it 1.5 years ago.
Cleaned the engine and replaced valve cover gasket (rock hard) was OK but not leak free.

Last week i replaced vacuum pump o-rings (also rock hard).
Now it is much better but there seems to be seepage...

Hi All,

After some for advice/steps to tackle a few issues.

Firstly, the car starts each and every time without fail, seems to run and idle nicely. I'm in Scotland and the car has started at -7 two weeks go, with a slightly longer crank but no issues.

My partner took the car today, and I noticed white smoke on startup and as she drove off....

Hi All!

Another annoying C4 GP problem for you. Should be an easy one, in theory?

Rear door, drivers side. Always physically unlocked. Doesn’t lock or unlock, but you can hear the motor jerking as though it’s trying. Also, the car never seems to know when you open the door. For example, you unlock the car, open rear door, throw kid in, car locks...

Now that I've got an MOT for another year I've thought about respraying the front bumper which has seen better days with the paint flaking off and looking a bit rough.

To make my life handy, are there any online guides for its removal or an exploded diagram showing what all requires removal? I assume the front wheels and arch liners require...

Hi folks

Trying to work out the name of a part

Under the bonnet 1.4hdi

lives under a metal cover with a belt the pulley which belt goes around is making a whirring sound

So my mechanic changed my front struts + LDS oil as well, when I put the car to lowest position (easier to wipe the roof), popped the hood to top up the window washer fluid, I noticed severe leaking from the LDS reservoir cap. I removed the cap slowly and it was completely overfilled, I was wondering if that could cause anything? Now the level...

I have a hard starting issue. So far the injectors, glow plugs, rail pressure sensor, fuel filter and prv have been replaced.

Starting seems worse when it's raining or wet,...

Hi all

I've recently bought a 2013 2.0hdi Dispatch. The chap I bought it off says he had an egr delete. After a couple of weeks of driving it developed an issue where it would bog down at lower revs especially in higher gears.
A local garage ran some diagnostics and cleaned the egr but with no effect. They got an air flow fault code.
When the...

I'm going to wind up returning my new toy to the dealer for rectification of the wonky electrics under warranty, but before I do, I am trying to establish if the seatbelt pretensioning is working correctly, oor not. Never had a car with this feature, so don't know what to expect. Once underway, the belt is fairly feebly reeled in and then judders...

As the title indicates, it is about removing all those badges (Except the Double Chevron - That i intent to cover in black or carbon Vinil) :mrgreen:
Already removed the Hdi . Citroen and C5 were going next , but as i was putting the fishing line behind the first letter , it seemed to have hit some stronger point. Before I go further, can someone...

Before i disassemble a lot of stuff to find where is the connector for the Catalytic Converter Temp Sensor (2) connection , could someone who knows its location enlighten me? :mrgreen:
I know where is the sensor , but then the wire goes up, and i'm not sure what i should disassemble to reach its connection. I wanna test it as it seems to have...

Hi.

A few years back I bought some Green valley roof bars for my 2013 DS3, there is a video
that shows how to do it but it just makes no sense to me, neither did the instructions, which I have now lost unfortunately.
From about 12 seconds in the guy puts these 2 parts either side of the stud in the recess in the roof strips, it's all wobbly...

Hi there.

I have a 2013 Diesel Ds3 that puts out a lot of dark smoke under acceleration, so much so that it mucked up my guy's brand new MOT emissions machine. When it starts it puts out a puff of white smoke. Both these symptoms started after I had the DPF changed due to the 'risk of clogging' and beep alert I was getting. This is a summary of...

Ay up!

Otterchops' dad here.

Well, the googats is slowly vanishing but, after replacing the track rod end I,will need to,adjust the tracking. :gt: :conf: :dunno:

It seems like the only way to do it is to undo the balljoint and turn the whole shebang. Is this the case? :hb: ](*,)

They've let the Frenchman design that......

Hi all, does anyone have a procedure for removal of the oil cooler on a C5 x7 2.0hdi 140bhp. Mine is throwing oil into the coolant. I got it unbolted but the hose there is a hose attached to a plastic pipe on the block. I have a new one coming. It comes with the plastic pipe and hose attached so I cut the hose but I want to replace the plastic...

Hi All,

Just had new tires on the front and wheel alignment adjusted, and it doesn't feel right to me...

I replaced both track rod ends over the last 2 weeks and so decided it would need the alignment checking but I think its now worse than my quick estimate adjustment!

When I replaced the joints I replaced them one at a time, then went for a...

Finally acquired a very pleasant Grand Picasso, 59k miles (2.0Blue HDi), only to find the clutch is well on he way out. Slight judder on gentle take ioff, but significant slippage if giving it the beans in an intermediate gear.

My reading of the market is that there are three key players for the DMF; LUK, Valeo and Sachs. I've generally never had...

Hi All,

Haven't posted for a while and it's not a big problem but my car is about 24 yr old and have had some rubber sections needed replacing (Mostly LHM pipes, due to the life span of the rubber).

The other day driving along I changed gear and the plastic / rubber gear knob just fell apart! It has been degrading for some time but now the...

Hi,
I have a C4 Picasso 2016 vtr. Yesterday the car threw up faults in abs, esp tyre inflation monitor, hill start assist and parking brake. These all appearing at one time would suggest a common cause but what that cause is , I haven't a clue. Any help would be gratefully accepted.

Thanks

Hi,
Thanks to the invaluable support from this forum, I have been able to resolve a long-standing immobiliser problem on a Citroen Relay 2 (VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]).
The engine now starts and runs fine, (but still not MoT'd for road use).
I now have a number of DTC's to deal with (see attached). I presume the one relating to the fuel temperature sensor...

Hi all,
I have a C4 Grand Picasso 2016 1.6 bluehdi 120 which is currently giving the P20F6 death of adblue tank error. From other posts I believe a replacement is unavoidable.

Hi,

The OEM stereo is (if I understand it correctly) a Blaupunkt RD4. I am in the process of replacing this with a double-DIN Nakamichi NAM1700 with reverse camera.

But now to my problem, replacing the stereo comes with at...
