  • Saxo coolant problems 12 Dec 2002 (Forum)
    Has anyone suffered with a rushing water noise when they start up their engine (mine is a 98 Citroen SaxoVTR)? Which becomes louder on applying revs. Is it getting to the point now where i am getting really pink furry dice and miffed. Started hearing the water noise and then the temperature gage went into the red.
  • Citroen ZX electrics 27 Jun 2002 (Forum)
    new to forum - hello to all I've just bought a 93K ZX Volcane after putting 150,000 miles on an Avantage (before an untimely write-off). Volcane has 47000...
  • Xantia ABS. 6 Aug 2001 (Forum)
    Guys, In all the time I've looked after Citroens the ABS systems have been very reliable, perhaps I've just been lucky! The BXs have given no trouble at all and I know usually a front wheel sensor or earthing repair will sort them out. The Xantias have been OK up to now but I have two this week with wheel sensor faults.
  • Toyota Proace - 2020 Proace DPF 9 Feb 2023 (Forum)
    Hi, would anyone know if the 2020 version of the Toyota Proace has any issues with the DPF. Am I correct in thinking these vehicles share the DPF with Citroen, Vauxhall, and Peugeot, and the 2020 version would contain an upgraded DPF to earlier vrsions ?? Anything I should be worried about concerning DPF's (or anything else for that matter) on tis 2020 Proace ??

  • Suzuki Vitara 2015 - General judgement 19 Sep 2015 (Forum)
    Dear John, as to me the new Suzuki Vitara compares in no way to the Renault Captur, the Opel Mokka, or the Citroen Cactus, neither to the Fiat 500 X whatever journalists might say. It should be compared to the Mitsubishi ASX to begin wth. Further more: it seems to me a great car, taking into account the price for the low budget versions.
  • Motorists to be hit with £100 speeding fines. 31 Jan 2012 (Forum)
    I suppose its inevitable, but do you think they are going to ramp up easy targets just for revenue? Why dont more cars have speed limiters? - I thought the one in Citroen C4 Grand Picasso I test drove was a good idea. Even better if it was automatically controlled, say by GPS.

  • AX gear selection 8 Apr 2007 (Forum)
    My daughter's Citroen AX has just developed a huuuuge amount of side-to-side play at the gearlever. Push forward for third and pull back for reverse. Driving it is very simple, if a little hard on the clutch. Any views on what I might find tomorrow?

  • Which small diesel? 31 Aug 2006 (Forum)
    Hi, Can forum members give any advice to best small diesel car? Like the look of the Citroen C3 and Skoda Fabia, need something that fits a 6'3 tall driver, nice to drive and comfortable. Long term reliability is important as I will probably buy used 3 to 4 years old and keep to high mileage.

  • Rusty Jag 30 Sep 2002 (Forum)
    Spent an enjoyable hour today looking at an xj6. 96,P plate showing 80k with FJSH,from an independant jag dealer. But why was the sunroof lip rusting in 3 places? My M plate Citroen AX has no rust anywhere! (Yes i know half of it is plastic!) The jag also had a frayed drivers seatbelt. I came away unimpressed, is this normal for such a fine looking brit luxobarge?

    Any clues anyone? Heading for Portsmouth last night, Citroen 1998 HDI 2 years old 29000, A3 exit on M25, loud bang from engine compartment (felt through bulkhead by passenger). Engine still runs, but very smoky and intermittent loss of power with occasional noise that sounds like a miss functioning servo.

    All the usual suspects figured in his statistics and I suppose is good for business. No 1 Fiat followed by Citroen, Peugeot and Renault. Hardly ever sees any Japanese cars.
  • Toyota - Toyota models in UK 22 Jun 2018 (Forum)
    As an Avensis owner I'm very satisfied with build quality, reliability and warranty but very disappointed at the choice of models in the middle range. The Auris looks cheap and rather odd-the Astra, Focus, VAG and Citroen are much better to look at. 
  • Who pays for repairs - First 6 months 11 Nov 2016 (Forum)
    Hi All, I've had some issues (coolant leak, EGR valve) with my car (Citroen C4 Grand Picasso). It's within 6 months since I've purchased the car and I'm wondering who is legally obligated to pick up the tab for the repairs, myself or the dealer? If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer as best I can!
  • Peugeot 5008 - Update of model/ 2 Sep 2013 (Forum)
    I am in the market for a new car and comparing the Citroen C4 Picasso diesels (recently released) and the Peugeot 5008. I am surprised by the differences in VED cost - it seems the C4 Picasso has changed engines and got down to Band B in some examples yet the 5008 diesels are much higher.
  • Any - Cars that don't sell 5 Sep 2011 (Forum)
    I've hardly see a Laguna coupe or Citroen C6. Subarus also spring to mind. The last Legacy was a handsome car but latest isn't going to win any design awards. Ditto the Impressher, well that doesn't impress me.  II've only seen 3 new Saab 9-5s.
