Having just bought my C5 X7 3L HDi I thought I would just check if any codes were present so bought a Topdon Carpal off Amazon just over a month ago, however I only got round to try it today only to find that the app is incompatible with either of my mobile phones. I can not return it as Amazon only give a window for returns of 30 days so I am 50€...

Hello!
This is my first post here. I've got my very first french car, a Citroen Xsara Picasso 2001, 2.0 HDi. I really like it. I need a diagnostic tool for this car... I have an OBD2 compatible ELM device, but it seems it is not connecting to the car, as none of the protocols is working with this Xsara.

I think that a Full Chip Lexia 3 should be...

I see there is a lot about the reading wiring diagrams, what the symbols mean etc. but I can't see the diagrams themselves. Is there a way of accessing the actual diagrams? I seem to remember paying a small additional fee for specialist information in the past. Is that still the case?

Hi
I've just joined your forum after reading many posts & informative replies trying to find answers to my problem.

Hi,
I was using iCarsoft CR MAX to read fault codes from Citroen C4 (year 2006). I noticed that some of the codes were quite weird looking. Reader gave me codes P000A F0, P0EE4 FE and P0C0E FC (see attached image).

I found a listing of fault codes for C4 and based on that and fault descriptions I think I was able to figure out that those given...

Hi, a few days ago I purchased a 2019 Peugeot Expert (similar to Jumpy, Vivaro, Proace, etc.). The car had been sitting on a lot for several months with a weak battery.

Howdy,

After I did some work on my car, it stopped working. It starts, but the engine quickly cuts after 3 seconds.
It happened after I had removed the EGR valve and cleaned it. I also had the MAF sensor off and cleaned it. The car is a Citroen C5 HDI 1,6 2006.

I’m, lightly put, a novice when it comes to mechanics, so I could use some advice. Do...

Hi all,

I suspect either the bearing on the fan is starting to go or something is caught in the fan somewhere as it made a weird noise when spooling down after I turned the engine off.

I was wondering if there was an actuator test I could run to spool the fan up so that I can investigate further. If there is a test, which ECU should I look...

Hello everybody,

Since I bought this car, the 360º vision has been inoperative. The rear camera was stolen but, even after replacement, the system remains deactivated.

On the VPA module details page (image below), I saw strange information related to the SW version, calibration version and fabrication date. This is normal?

Hello,
Unfortunately my rear wiper stopped working a week after the boot lock wires were fixed.

I suspect another wire broke, probably in the Body-To-Trunk area.

Can someone please supply the electrical diagrams of the wiper please?

Thank you

Hello,
On my 2009 C4 the Boot doesn't open anymore, and it's not the microswitch, i measured the 2 Cables with a multimeter and there is no voltage.
Measuring the lock itself there is Voltage, Ground and some sort of sensing wire if the lock is closed i suppose, motor can be operated by a 9 V battery (out of the car).

Can someone please provide...

The problem with automatic transmission is only when the car is in first gear in stop/start. It doesn't happen always, but when it does it's annoying. For instance while waiting at crossroad lights or inside city in slow traffic, when I want to start it kind of jumps, feels like some other vehicle hit from the back.
When driving it changes gears...

Double checked with voltmeter direct from the battery +ve and it hovers between 15 and 15.2v. Put a load...
