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!

I have tried reinstalling Windows 7 but it refuses to recognise the wireless card. I've bought new LEXIA...

Hi can someone point me to windows 11 drivers for my lexia golden Firmware 921815C , this is what seller claimed when shipped to me i need interface checker + win 11 drivers x64 in order to use it latest diagbox ?

I have bought a 2015 DS5 on the weekend from an independent dealership and in true new car fashion, it has issues after driving it the 2 hours back home.

When on the test drive, it gave no indication of errors or faults whatsoever but is now warning me that I have 600 miles to top up the AdBlue before the engine will no longer start.

After...

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...

Hi, I have a Citroen C4 Grand Picasso I Phase II (2013) and want to perform a BSI Reset. The instructions say to disconnect the negative battery terminal, but it's inaccessible. Only the positive terminal is reachable for me.

Will disconnecting the positive terminal instead of the negative still successfully perform a BSI Reset?

Hi all,

I've run into a very bizarre issue that I don't know the cause of. Up until now, I've had no real issues with Diagbox. My last session was 2 weeks ago where I cleared some intermittent diesel temp codes. I wanted to go back in yesterday and see if they had cropped up again, but I couldn't connect to the car. I was met with a screen like...

Hi I am getting an airbag fault B0002:64 Permanent Level 2 driver airbag line--Line present but not configured. comes on after I switch off and on again.

Any help much appreciated

I cannot find the water temp sensor that
(per haynes manual) says because - it is petrol with air con - it should be on the side of the radiator ( LHS )

The thermostat housing has no wires anywhere near it - so that rules that possibity out !

It still has the original radiator with 29 07 1999 manufacturing date stamp still on it !

A new sensor...

Hi All,

New member but after some advice if possible...

I purchased a (cough) Vauxhall Vivaro Life a couple of years ago new. I know these things are mechanically identical to the Traveller/Spacetourer, so I've come to the experts as opposed to a Vauxhall forum 😄

The vehicle was sold as a 177bhp, with my V5C showing the max net power as 130kW....

After my battery discharged and jump started it,the blower as stopped working. I looked on utube but no help. Also the voltage stability module fitted on the front of the top of the battery is also faulty! Could this be a cause of no blowers. Thanks in anticipation

Hi all, so what i have here im pretty sure is a clone. Ive owned it for quite a while and use to use it a lot for a 2001 Citroen Saxo. I was pretty much able to do most thigs. However im so out of touch with were lexia 3 hardware has gone. Ive provided below as many clear photos as possible to help you hopefully identify if it is a clone, and if...

Hi,

I have an issue with the windscreen wipers on my Peugeot 508 RXH, 2014.

The right wiper does not extend more than half way up the wind screen. The left wiper apparently works as it should, however diagbox gives fault code B11B0 71 Wiper Control Mechanics Fault on the left wiper. There are no persistent fault codes on the right wiper or the...

Hi, as a new member please don't judge my ignorance. I have a C4 Grand Picasso 1.6TD semi automatic on a 61 plate, I only have 87500 miles on the clock. My problem is this on 8th June I had an injector 3 fault. The RAC mechanic came to my home and replaced the injector. However uit still diagnosed an injector 3 problem. May be a faulty injector I...

I have a fully chipped & working Diagbox interface, as I now have a C5x, is it worth keeping, is it compatible and will I be able to get the correct software for my Laptop?
Thanks in advance

Technically the car is not french but engine is renault after all, so please forgive me.

Hi all,
Got a puzzling one for me and I'm really hoping someine can help me.

So, a few months ago I brought a second hand van. On the way home I noticed black smoke from the exhaust and then when I got onto the motorway the engine light came on and I entered limp mode. I went to the garage the next day and the above codes were given where I was...

Good evening, dear forum members!

I'm driving Citroen Picasso II 2017 (1.6 BlueHDi 120HP) VIN: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]
The car has been acting up lately (ABS error on 3600rpm, high consumption ~15l/100km, knocking in engine sometimes).

I was at my local official dealer here in Latvia (Andre Motors) and the guy there told me the car might need updates....

I've browsed a lot of videos and posts showing how to reset DPF Fluid after filling up, but after 3 hours in diagbox I just can't seem to get past this error in the attached screenshot. This error comes after entering the number of grams i've added to the tank. I assume there's another value I need to add somewhere first such as mileage, but can't...

Hi Guys!

First of all thanks for the help!

Before I describe my problem, I got a C5 X7 (2011) with the Philips Hifi System and currently no sound.

Through the recent months my soundsystem randomly stopped working. It started in the beginning of the year then the intervall between not working got shorter until it fully stopeed. So I obtained a...

Hey everyone, was wondering if anyone can shed some light on this... 2011 DS3 1.6 HDi 110BHP, 118K

I'm back on fault finding the cause of thick white unburnt fuel smoke during regen on my 2014 2.2 Boxer campervan.

Something I've noticed on the air intake 2 page of diagbox is the following parameter:

Status of the activation of the correction due to the oxygen sensor - Inactive

This parameter is always inactive during normal driving and...

Hi all!

Is there a way to check the genuine total mileage for the 2005 C5 through Lexia? In our country, it's an everyday practice to lower the mileage of any older (or newer, if they are high mileage) car to an eye-watering 200000 km.

I bought mine two years ago with around 220000 km, but I doubt it was that low mileage for a 2005 car. I mean...

I ask dear members to help me solve this problem
My car is a 2002 Citroen C5
Sometimes the check engine light comes on, and the engine begins to vibrate and make noise, and the number of engine revolutions does not increase when pressing the accelerator pedal, and the message “Anti-pollution Fault” appears with a significant decrease in the...

When I close Diagbox I don't get the question Do you want to save a report? I used to but lately I haven't. I have looked and can't see how to do this.

All the saved reports are from sessions several Months ago

Hello All 👋

I’m hoping that the forum could help with ongoing issues I have with my C3 Picasso.

It is a 2011 1.6hdi 110 manual (8v engine) exclusive it’s done 52k miles. We got it when it had done 28k miles and previously we had all four injectors replaced at 35k miles when it started to cough on long journeys that would put it into limp mode,...

Hi,
I'm looking for a friendly 'lexia' owner near me (HD9) to clarify gearbox problem .

Any advice welcome.
Thanks

Hi guys,

First post here, but I couldn't find anyone with the same issue, so I decided to create a separate post about it.

I'm driving a lovely 508 Feline 2.0 HDi 180 sedan from 2015 and everything was fine until I decided to partially replace the oil in the EAT 6 automatic transmission. Before that the gearbox was changing gears at very low...

Hi there, does anyone know which diagbox version is required for the C5 Aircross?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I’ve been following some posts on this forum and others regarding the Citroen C3. When I first purchased the car it was working completely fine, after about a week the car started showing strange symptoms. It would just randomly cut out during driving, it would cut out a lot more when the car was hot. After a day or two of this, when...

So it looks as though I have found a decent C5 Tourer here in France so I'm having a look around for any workshop manuals in English - most of what I can find is of course in French LOL
It doesn't appear that Haynes ever produced one for the Series 2 so is there anything else available either in print of downloadable?
Also, what is the best...

Hello Folks,

I've had this computer for years that has been working, however I tried to connect to a newer C4 Vactus and was experiencing problems, so attempted to Offline update it. I've now got the error as seen in the picture. Please advise on how I fix this. Thanks

Hi All

After a few Km I felt that the power of the car is not as it was - became worst and a warnning engine lamp turned on.

Hello. I have done lots of research on diagnostics kits and was just about to buy Diagbox 7.57 with Lexia 3 when I read the warning posted on this forum by GiveMeABreak.
All I want to do is clear fault codes and understand, as far as possible, what is wrong with my car before going to a garage. Mileage on my 2012 Semi-auto Berlingo is 47000. I...

Afternoon,

As the title really. Couldn't spot anything in the sticky section?

Am looking for general advice on checking whether the software is installed correctly and no firmware or driver issues please.

Lexia was working then petered out. Neighbour gave me his head unit but hadn't used it in so long that he couldn't remember which software or...

Hi all,

I have sadly bought into a bit of a turkey of a Boxer. Drove fine on the test drive, however airbag light was on. Seller assured me it was just an ABS sensor. It was cheap enough for me to take a gamble, however ive plugged my friends scanner in and the list of codes is...impressive shall we say :rofl2: I think the tackle the problem...
