Could be your clutch release bearing starting to sieze by the symptoms you describe :?:
My 4th Citroën Xantia (X2 HDi (110))
My 5th Citroën sAXo Memphis Mk II

Xantia x3 (2.0i TCT Activa)(2.1 TD SX)(1.9 TD Estate)
Xsara HDi VTR Coupe / Saxo 1.1i / BX 1.9 d / 4 x AX's (1.1i / 1.4D / 1.5D)

Or the release bearing is chewing through the pressure plate. Either way, it is box out time....

you'll probably need the bearing support tube as well, they get chewed up usually. (cheap from ECP)
