Hi would anyone have a part number for the rear harness section?
Please see here:

EDIT:

Just realised it's Gearbox Oil you wanted, (thanks Steve) - must have been having a male blonde moment.

The link I provided still provides the info under the gearbox section, and if you have a manual gearbox, then TOTAL TRANSMISSION BV 75W80 is what you need.

The P1351 you can ignore for now, most HDIs seem to have it and it shouldn't cause issues. The EGR ones shouldn't put the car into safe mode from my experience/knowledge except maybe P0402. But for the other codes, you definitely need to go to some garage and have it all checked properly.

Thanks, I did suspect it was supposed to do this. I do wonder why it lowers that bit when the engine is turned off. If I turn the ignition back on without starting the engine it raises back up. Turn off the ignition and it lowers once more at the front. It's almost as if it has a sort of 'parked stance' that is lower than its normal height for...

Thanks Mihkel,
I'll experiment a littlebit during weekend...
Cheers,

Excellent result.

Gents: We don't supply maintenance manuals here, so please don't ask for them. :wink:

Depending on your engine variant replacing the coolant temperature sensor can mean the replacement of the coolant outlet housing, so would need your VIN to check variant (please post your VIN in full without spaces - it will be automatically masked from public...

If the cables are the same as the C5 it's possible that the outer cable has come loose from the crimped-on ends and instead of moving the inner the outer is sliding in and out.

Hi i have installed a new battery and it is getting a good charge from the alternator, i did replace the capacitor/ voltage retaining device and had error P1A9C and managed to get some one to register the replacement capacitor and now the error U1134 is there and keeps coming back it says no lin network. no communication with the voltage retaining...

Hi Marc,
Thank You very much, I will check the codes underneath the sheath and let You know :-)
Many thanks in advance, Petr

The differences will be very slight Steve and not consequential...

No, we don't supply those, only the occasional one related to a specific problem, for which you may want to consider upgrading your membership...

Well done.

The Engine ECU does need to be told. The Menu in the Lexia will be under replacement parts and this is where you are effectively telling the engine ECU that you have replaced the DPF (even though you are just cleaning it). If you fail to do this the engine ECU will start flagging warnings at some point if it is not already doing so.

There are...

Thank you very much, i'll have another look.

As always brilliant thanks Marc much appreciated

If it's (4) or (5), these are still available from Citroen.

I will try that Colin thanks. It only slips when the engine is at maximum torque, if you dont push it hard its fine. One of the problems I had was air in the fuel which would cause it to spontaneously stop or at least hesitate probably giving the clutch a workout, especially when my son was driving it!

Peter

Thanks all,
After showing it to the garage they said someone had done a dodgy repair.
The issue is now (properly) sorted and was the cause of some of the issues I was facing.

I keep wondering if the Adblue system is linked to the dpf and could something have been missed or done wrong when replacing the adblue tank that could have affected the dpf?
The Adblue and the DPF systems are totally separate and independent of each other, so no.

Your DPF may be at end of life, so needs deep cleaning or replacing - there's not...

going back to this test report with the 0183 rpm, the battery voltage is at 8.5v!!!

This on it's own gives comms reading faults and may or may not be the major issue with recurring faults. Battery supply voltage in this report is definitely low and needs to be addressed as one of the faults.

It can be done in the BSI itself -by changing the multiplexed folding mirror option to 'No', but I'm not sure what other features of the mirrors that may disable, if any.

I actually found a better way of disabling it. Under BSI PROTECTION - ACCESSES - MECHANICAL ASSISTANCE / Folding in of door mirrors with high frequency remote control YES / NO...

i got small vacuum pump and system same as gunson eezibleed and have no success using that setup. anything of that - if I use 10 or 20PSI on the tank, pump the pedal and even put vacuum on the bleed nipple on the slave cylinder, there is still no movement of the fluid from the fluid tank down to the cylinders..
any thoughts?
Do I have to...

Costco tyre bays have a tool to code TPMS sensors to the cars. When I had my tyres on the C5 X7 changed a few years ago they didn't worry about which wheel came off where because they simply recoded them all back in.

Thanks guys. A friend that has a garage will remove it and take it to the cleaning service and back. I've never fiddled with it, so best leave it to them. But was just curious where it's located.

Thing is, these are meant to be the good ones. If I go back to bulbs I will need to also buy a pair of the full bulb holder assembly too because the original ones were totally wrecked. I might just turn off the auto lights because I'll not forget to put them on now that it's dark

Thanks again

You are most welcome.

My guess is that you get nothing from pin 9 of the BSM (when the car refuses to start). But then again, I shouldn't preempt your results.

Update
Bought a used head which I took the cams and hydraulic lifters from and put in my engine.
Couldn’t see any differences in my cams or the others and it didn’t make any difference.
Same slow car.

I’m short from ideas.. But..
one thing I have noticed is that someone has made a mark on the belt pulley probably when the belt has been changed...

Thanks for all of that Matt.
No problems getting injectors out this time.
Turbo will be replaced.
The only actual damage visible so far are the 1 and 3 big end journals.
Massive clean-up needed - I have access to a large ultrasonic bath.
The main issue is going to be the availability of undersized bearings or getting the journals built up.

Dobrý den.
NA mém C5 2.0 HDi 140 2010 se také projevují ty samé chyby. Podařilo se vám to nějak vyřešit? Budu rád, když se se mnou podělíte o informace. Děkuji L.D. Chomutov

Hi L.D.,
The user mcduff was last online in May 2022, so we don't know if the problem was solved...

Fuel goes from tank to filter

Isn't there a pre filter in the tank?

It is possible you've hit something that knocked the tank, something has jarred loose and is caught up in the feed to the engine (pump), making it suck hard enough to cause...

I don't have a procedure for removing the fuel tank unfortunately.

Good day, friends, and thank you Aerodynamica, for your comprehensive assessment and lead towards the regulator. Indeed, as I noted, I sourced and replaced all spheres, accumulator, pump as new and my steering rack was a professionally rebuilt one. The only variable is that my regulator was rebuilt by my mechanic using a new rebuild kit sourced...

You need to get it on the diagnostic computer - anti pollution is just the generic engine management light, could be anything causing it.

Thank you for the detailed description of the oil replacement.
However I'm unsure about oil. I think my car is Euro5 car.
If anyone can confirm which oil is cirrect this is the VIN (VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]).
I also must add that the gearbox has been changed for a new one about 100 000 kms ago.
I am adding the picture of the gearbox plate, just in case.

D&D motors - Kevin. He is a Citroen, Peugeot specialist. Very busy though.

People, check the earth cable on the gearbox end. You can see this by just looking through the gap between battery and engine. It’s attached to the back of the engine and can be accessible from the passenger side jacked up or by moving the module next to the battery out the way to gain more access. 13mm bolt.
Mine appear to be attached looking at...

Hi all my VCI exposed it seems to be missing one chip

Yeah, imagine that, I've asked some owners of the C5 and someone told me to try using a new nav CD, and it worked. :D

No, on some models they have an air conditioned glove box. It's to keep drinks and things cool. It should have a cover that allows it to be closed or opened. The glovebox light (if fitted) is a separate unit.

It's about £5-6 so won't break the bank - just order one from your Citroen dealer.

Problem solved - cause was stupidity. In my first attempt to see if any fuses had blown for cigarette lighter area coffee incident I must have put fuses back in wrong positions.

I now know which fuse controls fuel cap 5a and which does the climate control 10a on that single vertical strip on right hand side.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Both bulbs were working when I set off, so I'm certain it's one wasn't out.

I'll check tomorrow if both of the bulbs have gone, what's the chances of that happening?

Piece of **** this van is🤣

No it's not. Dommo checked.

I must take a photo of the strut top adapters for you when it is light. I thought I had unless I accidentally deleted it from my phone.
