Then it said to repeatedly press the 'audio' button but I could be misinterpreting something as I couldn't find anything that said 'Audio'. So I tested by pressing every other button but no joy.</p><p>3 - I also reset the trip computer and pressed in the button while on the date display page to see if that triggered anything but it didn't.</p><p> </p><p>Really not sure what else to try now... Any ideas?</p><p> </p><p>Thanks!</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">23466</guid><pubDate>Thu, 07 Jan 2016 13:22:20 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Starting C2</title><link>https://citroen-owners-club.co.uk/citroen/topic/23089-starting-c2/</link><description><![CDATA[<p>Hi Folks,</p><p> </p><p>I have a general question about starting a 2007 petrol C2, we have had this car for 7 years and its started first time everytime!</p><p>We have it for sale and I have given it plenty of TLC so the new owner will be happy...</p><p>The first person to test drive it gets in and cant start it, me and the wife are aghast and he gets out and I get in and it starts no problem...

I have been struck by how much it revs when driving. I admit I have moved on from a 2.2 honda diesel! But when I have compared the speed to revs on my girlfriends car I am a little worried. At 60mph in the C2 its doing 3250rpm in her 1.4 golf its doing just 3000rpm. But the confusion comes when the C2 is doing 70mph and 4000revs while the golf is doing 80 at the same revs.My main concern is fuel consumption. The published stats for combined are 40mpg but im scraping 35mpg and Im driving bang on speed limits and even 65 on the motorway! I have owned a C2 gt in the past and cant remember the revs (and engine noise) being an issue.</p><p>Id have thought in a 1.6 it would be reving lower. Am I being paranoid or should I get it checked?</p><p> </p><p>Also, out of curiosity, where is reverse. In mine its right-then-down. only reason I ask is the car came with a non standard metal citroen sport gear knob. Im wondering if the gear box has been changed and the reverse is now not in the standard place...given away if the original knob was present.</p><p> </p><p>Thanks for any feedback...other than the above its a great little car, Im really enjoying it.</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">8390</guid><pubDate>Wed, 21 Jul 2010 06:51:56 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Little Screamer</title><link>https://citroen-owners-club.co.uk/citroen/topic/8350-little-screamer/</link><description><![CDATA[<p>Members,</p><p>I have recently bought a 06 vts C2.

The three-door C2 will be launched later this year and effectively replaces the ageing Saxo.</p><p> </p><p>The C2's styling is angular and aggressive - note the plunging side windows and sloping roof line - and Citroën says the extended wheelarches will accommodate 16in wheels. Base models will be powered by 1.1- and 1.4-litre engines, while the C2 1.6 VTR gets a 110bhp unit. The SensoDrive paddleshift transmission will also be optional.</p><p> </p><p>Inside, the interior trim can be had in blue, orange or green, and the rear seats can both recline and slide backwards and forwards. The tailgate is split Range-Rover style, so just the glass window can be opened.</p><p> </p><p>Safety takes a huge leap over the Saxo with the inclusion of ABS, Electronic Brake Distribution, ESP, traction control and up to six airbags.</p><p> </p><p>There will also be a wide range of options. Boxes to tick include automatic air-con, parking radar, automatic headlamps, rain-sensitive wipers and a trip computer.</p><p> </p><p>Article from evo</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">201</guid><pubDate>Tue, 10 Jun 2003 04:34:25 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
