Hi Peter

I thought the same with my previous C4. It was in there but hard to see, poor design in my opinion. It took the skills of a Hollywood gynaecologist to replace the 12V acessory socket fuse. I've not had reason to look for it yet in my DS5. Good luck.

Whilst the diesels suffer AdBlue problems, the current petrols are equally awful The 1.2 Puretech with its wet belt is a nightmare, and the 1.6 Turbo, dereved from the THP prince engine, whilst chain driven, has a reputation for running troubles at higher mileages.

Yes the 1.2 Puretech wet belt issues are well documented so could you point to...

Hy guys, today I reconnected my DS4 to a better OBD reader, it says P0E69 error code, back right speaker, missing signal, is that a problem with the speaker or the amplifier? Can I just replace it with another, different speaker, or replace both rear speakers?, dis anione of you have this problem and that you solved it?

I'm pretty sure there is no temperature sensor, my guess is that the ECU cross checks the engine speed with road speed and known gear ratios, and if there is a discrepancy assumes the clutch is slipping and flags the warning. Telling in this case it only occurs in 5th - suggests to me that the wrong gear ratio is programmed for 5th.

You are...

shame, i've tried a couple of cables but it just says usb peripheral error every time i plug it in. Could it be something to do with the car being 2014 but my iphone being more modern? i basically just have to use the usb port as charging only and connect via bluetooth, but there's some interference when it keeps trying to play media via the wire

with canbus box attached for android headunit you might have most of the functionality of your car systems

hi again i have bought the diagbox tool with plug and cable to plug into my DS5 but the cd i was given didnt seem to load properly on my laptop because it shown erras while loading and when i used it on the car it didnt show any information for citroen or DS and would do anything when i clicked on diagnostic ? anyone know where i can download the...

Had problem with spacers on rear axle, later there was recall so they replaced both in warranty. The noise was similar to whistling from brakes.

Hi Paul - please put any future parts requests on the official parts thread, so your request isn't missed, thanks.

(1) Multifunction Control Unit (Com 2008), part 98199448ZD, £542.88

That's why I edited my post and wrote, what I wrote. I can get the build sheet and an account for free in the service box, but diagrams and technical handbooks are paid material. For me in germany is this a rip-off. I can totally understand if you guys in UK can't get any info for free but still, even then, the build sheet shouldn't be behind a...

Post has now been created in the Free, For Sale & Wanted Forum here: so I have locked this thread. Please post any queries in the other thread, but I'll leave this here in the DS Forum for extra coverage.

That may be the Hands Free Unit playing up. Get it to the dealer if you have warranty!

Does the reverse light come on as an indication if the reverse switch is working ?

It is a bit hard to tell from that clip, but it could be the belt slipping slightly, or a dry bearing. Try spraying a little water on the belt and see it it changes.

could you possibly provide a little more info? thanks!

From what I can tell 2014 specs and the AM6 6 speed Auto only fitted to 2.0 Models (HDi 160 and HDI 180). The 1.6 of this year were only fitted with piloted manual systems. So I think you have your info wrong about the 2.0 having piloted manual systems - they have the full auto transmissions fitted (apart from the 2.0 Airdream Hybrid Models). The...

Vin is VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] I also forgot to mention that the engine cooling fan comes on full blast when the fault occurs which is making me think there is a problem with the hybrid cooling cirquit. i understand there is a specific way to bleed this system? i cam only find a bleed nipple on the reverse alternator and this is flowing sporadically...

Welcome along!

Usually you would get an emissions error with this, and a count down to a non-start situation? The sensor is in the exhaust downstream of the SCR. It should unscrew from the exhaust, but they often seize in and then pull the threads out when you remove it. The part is not cheap, and you need a decent diag tool to reset the de-nox...

Hi guys can someone help me i have enabled the parking assistance on my ds3 with diagbox i replaced my rear bumper with an upper model ds3 with original parking sensors in it i attached the original loom to it from the car but i realised later there is no parking assistance ecu but the blue n black plugs are there for it so do i have to programme...

If you require a Factory Build Sheet, that will require a Membership upgrade. For the sort of information that it contains, please see this post as an example, which is for a DS5:

How can i find specific features of my car? like for example I see hill start assist in the manual however I'm not sure my car has that feature

The timing belt change intervals are for Citroen parts. If other parts are used it is possible they have a different interval so I would look at the paperwork to see if it shows what was used. You could check the aux belt to see if that needs replacing and its pulleys.

Just pop up future parts request in the main thread Lee, or I may miss it.

I want the whole experience so wonder if anyone knows where I can order a genuine DS key shell that I can swap my key and internals into?

The Dealer never sold replacement remote shells so highly unlikely you will find a genuine one.

Some of the Ali express ones may come with the logo on it but many of the sellers blur or edit the badge out so...

Welcome along.

Yes, it's a 1.6 Blue HDi 120 BHP. Any Adblue is OK to use - but avoid the stuff off garage forecourts, the sun degrades it. P1434 / 35 is indicative of an issue with the tank (or the wiring) - you are right that the additive should last around 100k miles. A car this late will have a refillable tank, not a bag. If it's under...

Pd-DTC might be pending codes so ones not yet bad enough to put the engine light on. You should still be able to delete these but first you should be able to see what they are if you can look under pending codes. When deleting it is done with the ignition on (dash lit up) without the engine running. Since you have no idea when these were...

Okay sorry to hear it's missing that info, I just didn't have the luxury of starting the car atm now to confirm it would be populated.
Did you have any luck with the app you found on Amazon?

Sure, here you go:

A build sheet doesn't include the specifics of ECUs, only the engine ECU variant for the most part. However if you require a specific part number, your donor membership status entitles you to request this info.

So assuming you mean Engine ECU, you have a Delphi Engine ECU:

Hi all.

Everything sorted. It was that bearing failure in the drive shaft coupling..... Would not have believed it.

All faults cleared and is driving without any problem. Now to book for MOT. Just trying to sort the SERVICE words on the dash.

Happy new year

If it's the DW10FC engine yeah it has a small trans cooler on the gearbox.
Though I reckon the box would have seized already if it had that much coolant in it

If I may suggest. They use LED 5mm 20mA, color as desired. Since they are LED for a voltage of 1.5 V, they must be used with a resistor of 560 Ohm 1/4 W. There are already preconfigured LEDs with a resistor. Here's an example from Amazon :

I don't know about your location if there is an electronics store where you can buy only 1 piece. Amazon...

Assuming you also have the wiring harness fitted already (you indicate a DS3 Crossback), then the charging module itself, the floor storage compartment module, charging indicator unit, and the mat, as well as having Diagbox to configure the unit (and a valid account / token for telecoding).

These are all still available from your dealer, as I've just checked.

If you need the correct part number, see below then you can at least search on this to get the correct part on the after-market.

Thanks. I've been looking for aftermarket axles using the part number -- that's exactly where I drew a blank.

The dealer is one option, of...

Oh wow! I sure do hope it has just slipped out.

I guess the only way to access the crank pulley is from below or removing front wheel and fender plastics? Looking from the top it's impossible to get there with hands.

My advice is to go somewhere else for your tracking - it's not unknown for tracking equipment (even modern laser trackers) to fail if not calibrated regularly. This happened to me and it destroyed 2 new tyres within 6 weeks or so. They shut it down afterwards until it could be investigated. In your case it could mean that the over-heating is being...

Just do as Paul suggested, as these are prepared and phpbb coded by me manually. If you have MS Word, you can save it as a PDF.

Just so you're aware, the traction battery on the hybrid costs £6,500 excluding programming and labour.

A search suggests resistance goes down from about 4000 ohms as the temperature increases to about 300 ohms when hot so I suspect your temp gauge is showing max (or a fault message) but you could mention what your problem is.

Thanks for the replys I have found today in live data the absolute throttle postion is showing 100% constantly at idle and when driving stays at 100% is this normal or should the reading change as the accelatror is increased or decreased many thanks once again

This may help

Are these the buttons on the actual radio itself or on the radio remote stalk on the steering wheel? Please be specific.

BSM=BSI1 ??? I can't see BSM in my drawing.
I clean the BSM with dust cleaner and WD40 contact cleaner. Now the horn work continuously without starting the vehicle.
The main headlight still not working.

In the drawing I only saw that the high beam is connected with a relay.
I did not see the main...

My DC5 started but it lasted a second- the engine stopped abruptly. A warning message would apprear on screen - something like faulty engine- PLEASE REPAIR THE ENGINE.
The electrician fixed it and it drove nicely. However rare messages of faulty engine appeared again. after 400-500km the car broke down again with the same symptoms. Another...

Some info worth a read, especially if on hard accelerating it gives a fault code.

Could be something simple such as needing the fuel filter replacing. Have a read of this topic
