I would try a message to Simple, he knows a lot about the Lexia and has posted on the C8 section plus there are links to his posts on the Petrol diesel LPG section http://www.citroen-owners-club.co.uk/citroen/topic/23278-lexia-diagbox-pp2000-topics-1822016/

I think you will find that the capability of reading every pug/citroen car depends on the build number of your lexia. My own Lexia is quite and old one and it fails to read a few models, one of them being the C8, which is a shame as I have just bought a C8. LOl. The newer releases of china lexia seem to read a far more models.
