What's that Mr Tip Man, this is my little estate car, no need to book in!

Yep, that'll do nicely

Hmmm, the red 308 has given me the silent treatment again today!
No sound from radio or parking sensors

Well, before, during and after!
It was unde cover (2 storey work car park) all day but silent on the way home again this evening.

It's getting a thorough rinse at the moment!

I'll have to have a look, the scuttle drains were fairly silted up (now cleared out) when I had the arch liners out during the clutch change.

Logged in twice to post this, when I had my c3 Picasso i kept hearing a sloshing water noise I then took the wiper scuttle off and saw 2 fish ponds due to the drain holes been so blocked up , and they were just staring the make there way into soaking the car foot wells , one was directly above the fuse box and heater ducts.

It used to hit a fuse , then take out my instrument cluster and so on , till it fix the cause then after all was ok

My 307 started working yesterday afternoon. Well, it started giving me some sounds. And it connected to a radio in-car transmitter ‘thingy’ that itself connects to a Bluetooth device which allows you to stream your device. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about.

I don’t know if what I did made it work or if it decided that it was time to start working again or what happened. I pressed and held the source button on the end of the audio control stalk. I’m not sure how long I held it in, but I didn’t think I was going to break anything by holding it that long. And suddenly the CD that was in the unit began playing!

I pressed the source button again and it went to the radio. It began making noises that were supposed to be music, but were anything but … . (I might be getting old). I played with the preset buttons because I know that I had set one of those as the frequency to connect to the plug in ‘thingy’, and I connected my iPad to the ‘thingy’ via Bluetooth and suddenly I was streaming my iPad to the car audio system! Yippee!

But like I said, I don’t know if it was that I pressed and held the source button, or if it just decided to work, or what, but it now works as well as it could.

I still can’t pair it directly to my devices, but even that seems a bit closer than before.

I tried posting an update on my previous thread about some progress, and I asked for some feedback, but there was no response. Should I start a new thread with this new information, or what do people suggest I do? I’m still a beginner on this forum, so I don’t really know what the expectations are. Please let me know what you think.

My 308 now and again will throw up only during diagnostic session that the cd changer isn't communicating with the head unit , funny that as it hasn't got a changer and never did .

Quick updates:

Grey 308 SW:
Running well, the magic potion from GSF seemed to have cured it's Risk of Particulate Filter Blocking issue (for the moment) a hundred miles or more under it's belt since then and the message hasn't returned.

Sorry Husky not had chance to look at the battery top located fuse board thing yet.

Red 308
Tripped over a milestone viewtopic.php?p=876030#p876030
Had a new 9mm plywood boot floor made (it's a flimsy bit of 3mm MDF under the carpet and it'd had it!
£9.60 for a half sheet of 9mm plywood and half a morning's messing about has replaced it.
Radio/parking sensors stubbornly silent at present so a Diagbox session will be needed. Otherwise running well.
Must get the dark tint pealed off the rear window (sides can stay for now) it's some sort of limo tint nonsense and far too dark. Needs to go now the nights are drawing in!

Excellent on all counts Matt
