Lidders

Thank you very much for the info, most helpfull, job now done. I took the opportunity to replace all the Bulbs.

Thanks for youe help so far. I am currently trying to get the bumper off, I have removed all screws & Bolts (3 off), but the bumper appears to be clipped to the wing/chassis in various locations, does anyone know the procedure for actually removing the bumper, any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks John, I hoped it would not come to that, how long (Roughly does it take to get to the point where I can actually change the bulbs - I'll do both side lights as i'm doing all this)?

Hi, I have an 'X' Reg Xsara 5 Door 2ltr HDI, I am trying to change the Drivers side side light, this is a face-lift model, the manual shows where the bulb is, but as anyone who has looked into this will know, it's not easy to get to. I am wonderring if the washer bottle spout is able to be pulled out, this would make access much easier, does anyone know if this is possible?

Hi, I have an 'X' Reg Xsara 5 Door 2ltr HDI, When I bought this car, i suffered a number of Engine failure-to-start problems that required the car to be bought home on the back of a truck, usually, when I tried the car the next day it would run as normal, usually for a number of weeks before not starting again (usually miles away from civilisation). I eventually discovered that a connection between the large Relay on the Bulkhead under the Bonnet (blue wire) and the Fuse box was breaking down, this was effectively cutting power to the Fuel Pump. I simply ran a wire in parelle to the existing wiring between the relay and the fuse-box, result, no more problems. I discovered on a forum (like this one) that somepeople were wiring their fuel pumps directly to the Battery to get round this problem, or (as I did whilst sorting out this problem) making a lead that could be plugged into the Cigar lighter socket to provide power to the pump. Both these solutions are good for getting out of trouble, but if your car has the same fault as mine, i feel the neater fix is to bypass the problem as I did above. Good Luck
