  1. disconnect the battery for 5 minutes then retry programming it
  2. the 2.2 suffered with torque regulation problems. usually either the control lever for the swirl chambers stops workin or thevacuum pipes split thats the first thing i check
  3. i can help i am the chosen one
  4. hey there folks im new to this so bare with me. im a bit of a citroen expert and im willing to help if i can just ask the question if i know the answer or can make a suggestion i am more than happy to. obviously all donations are welcome. you will be amazed at what i can help you with
  5. new injectors from citroen cost around 250 each give or take. but you can have your old injectors reconditioned much cheaper. regardless of people say i know this can be done. used it myself to fix picasso with same engine. much cheaper. they can cause economy problems but would expext other issues with them too. any questions feel free to ask i am a citroen king

  7. if its the hdi be careful they not too happy with unpure fuel. they will run on it if its a weak mix. citroen bcan give you the ratio
  8. the permanent feed is missing to the head unit check your car has it check fuse in head unit. may be slight change in wiring
  9. sit in your car.switch ignition on and almost immediatly press and hold the lock button on the remotr for 30 seconds. then switch off the ignition and wait one minute then give it a blast see if it works
  10. hi there i understand where your coming from regarding costs of driving. obviously diesel i becoming more expensive as this is the way forward. having drove almost every make of citroens i can honestly say i would not bother with the petrol engine all except the c1 petrol which is a toyota engine. a recommended c5 is the 2.2 dual turbo what a motor they also use this lump in the c6. oh and the new c5 is running the 2.7 v6 diesel out of the c6. one last point if petrol engines are any good why have the only c6s sold had diesel engines. they do offer the 3.0 v6 petrol. citroen petrol engines are crap at best. all the 16 valve engines suffer noisy tappets and the earlier c5 suffered from the cam pulley rattling. not cheap. to stop noisy tappets on the 1.8 and 2.0 c5 petrols irs recommended to change the oil at at minimum 10k intervals
  11. hi there turn on your ignition and press and hold down the ultrasonics button on the dash. this should manually deactivate the alarm. any problems email me applefishbanana@hotmail.co.uk
  12. the immobiliser doesnt affect the alarm. switch the ignition on press and hold the ultrasonics button. this deactivates the alarm. them just use the key to lock the car
  13. leave it off bin it. the newer cars dont even have them fitted. my advice bin it if you come to sell it they wont know. if they ask it wasnt standard fit on that year citroen binned the cover as it was more hassle than good. god im good anything else just ask
  14. sounds like possible drivers door motor fault. if the door doesnt register it has been opened it will auto relock. does the interior light come on when you open the drivers open. also suspension nodding is common maybe either a software problem or water ingress into bhi
  15. can i just add citroen has made its name with diesel engines they make the best best diesel engines in the world many other manufacturers use there engines if they were so poor why are they the best diesel engine manufacturer. it annoys me when people with limited knowledge bitch about things they aint got a clue about. diesel is the future for cars get used to it or buy a bus pass
