thanks for your reply. At the moment the car is in the garage, so I haven't got access to it. I just find it hard to believe the garage can't source a supply of the fluid. They stated they don't like to buy from a motor factor. I also took the car in because of a noise in the engine. They diagnosed a pulley wheel starting to break up, which is why they suggested leaving it with them.

I just heard from my main dealer that Citroen are not stocking the additive for my C8. Sorry I started another post as I didn't see this one. Anyone any information?

I took my C8 into the main dealer as the Diesel Additive warning light came up. They tell me that Citroen are not stocking it any more. They think that Citroen are trying to source it from somewhere else. They did say that although my car is old, there are a lot of newer cars that will require the stuff at some time. Has anyone heard about this. It appears to have happened only recently as the garage say they have obtained some for a customer recently. I would be interested to know if anyone has a reliable source for the additive

thanks to both of you. I have just got my smashed mirror off using the info here.

My wifes 2006 1.9turbo diesel has died once more. It appears to be the tubo on the engine. She had this trouble once before. I think she took it to a duff garage and not the specialist I trusted to do the work. Is this a problem with these engines? I thought the Citroen diesels were the best, (apart from stuck fuel injectors!). Anyway, she has been told that once there starts to be trouble with the turbo, there will continue to be trouble with the turbo, even if a new one is fitted!! Is she likely to get any change from £1000 to get a new one fitted, and is the new turbo likely to fail
