  1. How are people connection their I-Pod's to their C4 factory head unit? Is there a product that can be recommended, preferably that also charges the I-Pod whilst driving, and can display song info but mainly just to get the songs playing through it. Thought about one of those things that go into your ariel input, but noticed the head uni now has a different ariel input socket. ;)
  2. I once had the C2 and on the front near the stereo there was a button that, if you held in at a desired speed, it beeped over that speed. The speed could be set at any time, but this was just mearly the speed limiter, which the C4 has but you have your's set to 0. Look's like somebody will be adhearing to the motorway speed limits for some time ;)
  3. Does anybody know the answer to this question........ The accessory of rear side window sunblind, with these in can the windows wtill go up and down? You know how it is with the kids, one minute they want the sun out their eyes, the next they want to hang their head out the window!
  4. Ive just got my hands on the Citroen part number 9477C1, the Parrot VH3000 what a dealer has told me is the bluetooth kit for my C4. Within the box there wasnt the controls that fit on to the fixed centre of the steering wheel, to control the bluetooth hardware. Is this ok, or should they be in there? If i've misunderstood and the controls are required additionally is there any advice on how can I get them? Its proving quite akward to add the Citroen approved bluetooth system, having not had it installed as an extra upon purchase, Bloody hell!
  5. I thought all the fixed steering wheel controls where standard, obviously not! Not to worry. Yeah the cool's great, with it being special edition only had choice of four colours, but great colours to choose from. Got the Iron Grey myself. Had been a keen admirer of the C4 for a long time, wanting the Coupe but due to having a little nipper in the family, hatchback it was. The cool was the same price as the SX but with £1500 worth of extra's, daft not to take advantage of and what a difference it makes! Only one problem, broke my leg and cant drive the car, best make sure the missus dont crash it in the mean time!
  6. The problem of installing the Citroen bluetooth system, I think after some help from here and many phone calls speeking to people with half an answer, I have the answer: The bluetooth system i've found will be like shown in the operators manual of the C4, where the controls listed then become available on the fixed steering wheel centre. The buttons (dont know them off top of my head) become available on the south-west location of the fixed mounting with the north-west being cruise control buttons, north-east the car stereo controls and sout-east the navi-drive system (if installed - blank if otherwise). The bluetooth system is required in two parts, firstly, the expensive one. This is the Parrot VH3000 what Citroen quote as part number 9477C1. Secondly, a fitting kit is required, Citroen part number 9701 95. The fitting kit will allow the first part (as citroen would install) to connect into the existing wiring loom, because without it, the connections wouldn't match. The prices! From Citroen, they want £50 for part no. 9701 95, and £275 for part no. 9744C1. Each dealer is seperate, so installation cost may vary but I got quoted £70, giving me a complete price of £395 inc. VAT. However, Part number 9744C1 can be found on internet auction websites (you know the one!) for £200 (+£8 P&P) whilst the fitting kit can be obtained for £!( (+£5 P&P). Obviously this includes installation. I'm new to this but thought I'd post this because you guys helped me come to what I think is the solution. I'm off to buy the two parts and going to fit them myself and will keep you informed of the results! If all else fails, my local dealer said they can still fit the parts for £70, if I supply them so if I fail in installation myself, at least i've still saved money with them fitting it. Fingers crossed. Loving the C4 though, got the new special edition C4 Cool, gone are the days of manually changing my temperature, putting my own wipers and lights on etc........
