For full details email me at: markleigh99@yahoo.com

D'oh! You must have the mini hands. How the heck do you get the n/s lamp assembly?

You were right. Tried to check bulbs myself but didn't have the hands of a two year old - or the skills of a gynaecologist - to get them out. Ended up taking car to a dealer who said you had to remove the bumper to reach the n/s unit. £68 later - two new bulbs :-(

Could be. I hope it's that simple. Thanks

About to set off for a 95 mile drive in the dark when I noticed my headlamps didn't work. High beams fine though. Too dark/fiddly to check fuses so will have to wait to morning. I know there are sep. fuses for each bulb - it seems odd that both fuses would have blown at the same time; or both bulbs. Everyting else is fine. Any ideas??? Thanks Mark

Postscript... Went back to TFL at Wimbledon for the car's 2 yr service. Again, very pleased with the garage. They dealt with two more warranty items - two small oil leaks spotted from the gearbox and head gasket. Very courteous, quick and car valeted. Now for another year's motoring... Mark

Inspection free as well (I hadn't paid in advance for it). All seems well. Car went to TFL in Wimbledon; very pleased with service there.

Car in a garage week for inspection and fitting new clutch - replaced f.o.c under citroen warranty due to manufacturing defect (or similar). Phew!

No - brakes seem fine... (now where's that wood i need to touch...) M PS Am thinking of selling car in spring if anyone's interested - clutch will be resolved one way or another by then. March 2005 Sx Hdi Sensodrive. By then, prob 27k/28k miles Perfect condition. Extras = black paint; electric glass sunroof; rear parking sensors

Booked car in for Jan 7 for inspection. My main dealer Lovekyns in Ewell, Surrey went out of business this month - so am taking it to TFL in Wimbledon. Will keep ypu posted. Mark

No - just the SX 70hp version

Got reply from Citroen in a week. Standard letter - "It's a wearable item blah blah blah blah". I can take it in for an inspection but will have to pay for this whatever the result. Think I'll have to do this as gear take-up is getting worse by the week...

Wrote to Citroen Monday (and emailed them) telling them I wasn't prepared to pay for the new clutch and that failure at this low mileage was either down to bad design or substandard product quality - no reply as yet..... Mark

I rate Sensodrive too - but see my post about the clutch needing replacing after 22,600 miles of long distance driving...
