been a while but i think?...... pop out small grommet from handle to access screw, pull on handle lever then slide plastic backing one way or other to remove clip off cover on door pull, 2 screws? pull off speaker cover, 4 screws to remove speaker ( 2 of them hold panel to door) panel should then clip out from door on 'poppers' at bottom, swing out then slide panel upwards screws are torx fittings might not be totally accurate but as much as i can remember!

bet a blob of weld on spare is catching? if so your calipers are twisted, common problem. corrosion between caliper & brackets causes caliper to twist, more clearance with alloy wheels. search previous threads, been discussed before yellow thing is to remove chrome covers from bolts, spare bolts are prob replaced with locking bolts?

if you can get the top screw back in ok you can come round and do mine! gave up after 10 mins!, 1 screw holds it ok

well...guess what? yup 4th pulley now on car! noisy like kids putting lollipop sticks in bike wheels, few days later.. quiet turns out when they go quiet they're not 'fixed', mine locked up with no damping. not very good for aircon clutch also when idling in eco heating mode, every now & again would judder as if aircon trying to kick in DO NOT IGNORE ANY SYMPTOMS SIMILAR TO THESE, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!

from memory, flip off fascia surround, then there are a couple of cross-head screws? should then just pull out any head unit will fit, some manufacturers also do leads which will connect to factory remote controls for a price of course! google for a fascia surround to convert to DIN mine was £10 ish from somewhere in Weston super mare
-
well.......9 months, 10k later.. guess what? 'kin noise is back! in to garage for looksie next week, pulley apparently is under warranty, s'pose got to pay labour if it's replaced will be 4th one on car! will seriously consider selling, beyond a joke now

2002 C5 2.2 Hdi Exclusive - Thinking Of Buying
old'uns replied to a topic in Questions about the Citroen C5
120k, as said i'd be looking for 2 cambelt changes first check that rear pads are wearing square, problems with calipers twisting usually shows as squealing or binding brakes. could mean new calipers if bolts don't come out. check everything & i mean everything electrical twice! if it's an estate, don't worry if glass tailgate doesn't open, common problem -
10mm nuts on mine, 2 on lower, 1 on upper? bottom half overlaps top half so comes off first think the blanking plates are supposed to turn 90deg then pull out.bloody things fall out anyway so didn't bother putting mine back. bet the tool that fits the 2 small holes costs arm & a leg!
-
if fan display goes off & none of controls work as mine did, replaced a regulator, elec thingy, conn block with aluminium fins, think its drivers side footwell high up with green connector block. off top of head £90 ?
-
could be EGR valve sticking open? mine did same thing last year
-
at 72k i'd be asking about cam belt change. also eloys fluid, need to check whether yours has it?
-
my pioneer H/U doesn't either but: the key needs to be on acc? position for radio to work without engine running eco mode flashes after approx 1 hr then radio will turn on & off as doors are opened & closed this was same as with original radio in
-
are you sure it's 72 deg C and not 72 deg F ?
-
aahh... both members of 2 sites then SCN & here not quite got a Leon but original Cupra Ibiza, in the best colour of course .. Kiwi Yellow !
-
it's a car, that's what cars do, any car can do it got a Seat Ibiza no better than my C5, so much for german quality & yes i do know Seat are Spanish! just that everything is stamped VAG
-
don't know how they fitted mine, but from memory: 2 yrs ago, towbar, dual electrics all fitted £ 185 & had no problems at all looked into fitting own towbar then decided too much hassle
-
had mine done @ 100k, told 60-70k safest option, but worst option is after belt breaks. if in doubt, change it
-
anything like this? link could be any no of things though another site to look at: link
-
think cover on arm flips up towards blade? nut then underneath & arm then on spline as a normal wiper arm
-
take off wiper arm, mine was stiff, be careful or arm will break! nut underneath it holds mechanism to glass try looking at slot in tailgate inside and make sure motor moves the 'slot' thingy :huh: all the way from left to right. i had a few creaking noises on mine after replacing glass
-
auto lights: r/h stalk end button hold in with ignition at first setting? display then says 'auto light active' think both sensors are top centre of screen, there looks to be 2 areas on blacked out section that are holes?
-
