French Car Forum

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.

At the time of purchase, there was an error on the dashboard related to the radar. After an initial diagnosis with Diagbox and reviewing the error history, numerous errors...

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 guys,
I'm very new to this forum. I'm the proud owner of a Citroën Jumper 3.0 from 2007 since 2020.
Because it has an Iveco engine, I spent more time on the fiatforum.com and there's isn't much on the vehicle I didn't touch since I bought it. I converted it into a campervan and I discovered I like working on cars and when abroad it's always...

Hello,

Yesterday while driving the check engine light came on, the Depollution Faulty error was displayed, the car lost power and was working on two cylinders. The computer showed error P0351 - Ignition coil A, primary/secondary circuit malfunction. This is the only error the computer displays (apart from P0597 Thermostat error, but it was always...

Hi, anyone know where i can find diagbox cleaner?

Hi,
I have just bought a 2012 Peugeot Partner Tepee, and am very pleased with it so far.
I want to enable the cruise control option in the vehicle, and have fitted the required parts and got a copy of Diagbox.
However when I tried to connect my brother-in-law's vci, it was not compatible.
Can you recommend a vci (cheapish) which would be...

Evening all,

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...

Can anyone tell me where the air intake temp sensor is located please got p0113 code low temp voltage low thankyou

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...

Hi all, I'm doing professional diagnostics for Citroens and Peugeots in my area.
I have lexia and diagbox, my S/O wants to buy a Renault. Can I just buy a software for diagnostics ro should I get hardware too and what should I buy?
I've been within PSA all my life so i don't know anything else.

I had noticed the last few days a slight whine, which varies but definitely engine rotation related. Plugging in the code reader to check something else, I was surprised to see a voltage of 15.2 / 15.3v on the reader, with the engine running. Double checked with voltmeter direct from the battery +ve and it hovers between 15 and 15.2v. Put a load...

Following on from Earlier post regarding the SOS light on my C5 flashing for about the first 5 minutes of motoring.

Good morning everyone, my Jumpy II, with 85,000 km, started giving me the error of possible clogging of the DPF filter in the summer. After about 1000km of long journeys the light went off. After a few months, the warning light came on again on most busy city routes. I would like to get an economical lexia3 interface to force the cleaning of the...

Does any have this or used this app, is it any good for real time diagnostics like telling you how full your soot level's are or when the last regen took place etc

Hi Folks-

I've just joined the forum in the hope that someone can point me in the right direction for an attempt at a DIY diagnosis for my car. I've got the Haynes manual and have started following the steps to attempt to diagnose, but I'm a complete novice in this department having only completed some basic repairs (header tank and fuel filler...

Just popped up in an email.

My Citroën C4 Picasso 2,0 diesel, euro 5, 2011, has a problem. It's turbocharger overboost al the time. Engine doesn't get faults from it, but live parameters shows different story. Turbo fails to stop in time, it stops only with loud hissing noise, to drop excessive boost. I have changed all vacuum system hoses, solenoids (the one that regulates...

Hi all I've got a peugoet boxer 2010 2.2 which has the engine management light on with the code p1304 after attempts by 2 garages and the AA to put the light out it comes straight back on I was told it's because there is too much fuel going in and the pressure is high on the fuel rail also that they can't comunicate with the engine management on...

Hi. I recently purchased this van and have always had difficulties with starting. Initially assumed it was due to not being serviced/run for a while. Work was planned to change glow plugs to see if this was the issue, when the mechanic got in there they noticed that one of the plugs was removed and a bolt was inserted. This was fixed, glow plugs...

I have a strange problem with my Peugoet 307 sw 2007 Multidisplay shows ABS fault and the light is on on the dash board but at 3 workshops and different diagnostic tools no error when scanning however none had Diagbox.

Hi want your expertise for these two Lexi3 Diagbox as the seller claims them are genuine (Original tool) very grateful for your opinion.
and if one of them turns out to be genuine (Original)where would the price be.
very grateful

OK. So code is definitely 0952 which means nothing but here is the description:-

Telematics 1 problems exist
1.0952 FM2 Aerial Fault. No Signal

Now! When I looked at it yesterday, perhaps on a different system, it said FM2 Aerial Fault. Short circuit to open. Earth.
which is a subtle difference.

Can you search on descriptions or Telematics...

Ay up!

I have ABS problems! However, when I tried to use my LEXIA to figure out the problem, LEXIA threw a tantrum and would not work. This is when I discovered that the laptop had deleted all the files that worked the interwebby thing!

Hi there,
Addition to Diagbox 9.68 MrRorry:

It looks like it was possible to use the 9.68 via VM, so that it is not necessary to buy the activation code.
According to my information, DB 9.68 is running correctly e.g. on workstation 15 or on 16.1.0, if the PC is suitable for the VM.
It should be a 64-bit system e.g. WIN 7 or WIN 10 64 bit. because...

I have a 2016 Peugeot Partner 1.6 BlueHDi which my Lexia no longer wants to talk to and I have not been able to correct the issue.

Having had the Adblue tank problems, Nox sensor replacement and now (possibly) and Eolys issue, I needed a tool to save me paying £50 a time to diagnose or clear faults.

My little obd2 reader would clear the Adblue...
