many thanks for the info, going to get a quote for the work, dont really have the tools or time to do it myself, if i had'nt just bought 4 new tyres for the car i probally wouldnt bother and just scrap it, but saying that its been a good car and does everything i want with good mpg so if i can find someone local to do the work at a reasonable price ,will do it and keep for another year or two, would only find and buy another one anyway, great cars

thank you for the info, will have another look at the weekend and see if am up to doing it myself or sourceing a local mechanic who can do it for me, dont suppose anyone knows of a good mechanic in the north wales / wirral area that specialises in citroens ?

hi am also haveing the same problem, leaking fluid from the gaiter on both the rear struts , car also settles right down when left for a few hours, how easy is it to replace the seals ? if i took it to a citroen garage what sort of cost are we talking about?

Cheers qman, will give that ago when I get home, gotta say, lovein this site, very helpfull

Cheers Thomas, how do I get the power back?, is it just a case of replacing the air filter or do I need to do more? Also how do I get the engine warning light to go off? Appreciate your help bud

Thank you so much, just had a look and your right, cleaned the water out, filter is ok but will change it when I get home, have disconnected the airflow metre connection, will see how it goes when I leave in 30 mins, should have thought of this myself but have other things on my mind, again thank you, great help :))

Hi , yesterday morning driveing to essex from north wales in heavy rain, I managed to drive through some flood water, probally shouldnt have but was under pressure to get south due to a family member in hospital. Anyway got through the small flood with some coughing and spluttering, some blue smoke, alot of cursing and kicking myself. Soon cleared up and I carried on doing another 140 miles but with the acceleration being not quite what it was before the flood. Car seems to be running fine apart from the acceleration, its as if the timeings out, apply light pressure on the pedal and it will go ok, soon as I put the pedal to the floor, nothing happens or very little response, the car is still useable but I've obviously done some damage, today the yellow engine warning light came on but as I dont have a manual handy, have no idea what it represents, got to travel back to north wales tomorrow, not sure if its going to make it or not, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated , thank you
