Citroen Xsara Picasso (2000 - 2010) - yr 2004 - ECU pin corrosion 28 Feb 2012 (Forum)
The connector cannot be sufficiently well waterproofed. Seems to affect Picassos from 2004." I have contacted Citroen UK but they say, sorry but we can't help since the car is more than 3 years old (it's 3 1/2 year old, 04 reg). Any ideas where I go from here? I wonder were honestjohn.co.uk got the information about the ECU problems from, would be useful to know? -
Citroen Grand C4 Picasso - Can I legally take my car from the garage? 20 Jul 2011 (Forum)

citroen berlingo 1.9d van - resparay/blowover? 29 May 2011 (Forum)
Hello all, just wondering what the general opinion is on the following issues I'm having with a Berlingo bought a week ago from a Citroen main dealer. It's low miled at 36,000 exceptionally clean inside etc. I bought it took it home then after a few days noticed colour deviations in the paintwork, which I'm now finding unacceptable to look at. -
Citroen ZX wont start. Help! 2 Nov 2010 (Forum)
Hi everyone, I'm after some advice... I've a problem with my Citroen ZX (92J 1360 (carb)) that's got me a bit flummoxed. The problem began when I pulled into a parking space - it stalled suddenly just before I stopped. After that it hasn't run at all. I've checked the ignition and it seems to be sparking OK, so my initial though was that it must be fuel. -

citroen xsara 1.4 2000 - engine and interior vibrating 7 Jul 2010 (Forum)
Citroen Xsara 1.4 2000MY mark 1, 115k miles on the clock Im having a strange problem where by when at idle every 10 seconds or so i can feel a small vibration coming through the steering wheel and the car- although no passengers have mentioned anything, also the exhaust sounds like it is missing every few seconds, also the engine is moving ever so slightly, so im guessing the movement in the engine is causing the problem. -
Citroen C3 (2002 - 2009) - 02 1.4 HDi driving us mad with random non starting 10 Feb 2010 (Forum)
For nearly two months our 130k miles C3 diesel has been randomly not starting from cold. It spins over perfectly, just don't fire up. Been to the Citroen dealer twice - first time injector seals and various pipes were renewed. Ran fine for a while then refused again. Towed back to the dealer who found a string of permanent faults on the computer, wiped them and it started fine again. -

Citroen C5 (2001 - 2008) - 02 2.2 HDi diesel starting problems 8 Apr 2009 (Forum)
I put new ones in and still the problem persists. That was not an easy job!!!! I have taken it to the Citroen Centre in Oxford. He checked all the various pressures and air flows using his lexia computer. All seem to check out okay but he cannot check pressures whilst cranking. He suggested buzzing through the wiring looms. -
Citroen Xantia (1993 - 2000) - 1996 1.8 Reservoir Float Sticking? 29 Dec 2008 (Forum)
One question which springs to mind is it looks like the previous owner may have overfilled with non-Citroen LHM, to compensate for a slight leak near the rear N/S sphere. The mushroom gauge on top the reservoir doesn't seem to move at all, despite us syphoning out a litre of fluid from the reservoir, leaving the internal level approximately the same as my Xantia estate which floats like a dream. -
Citroen Xsara Picasso (2000 - 2010) - 02 2.0 HDi Engine Fault - knocking/jerking 23 Dec 2008 (Forum)
Hi, A few months ago due to an expanding family I purchased a 52 plate Citroen Xsara Picasso 2.0 HDi SX. Within the first week a fault developed where the engine would make a metallic knock and there would be a split second jerk of power. At first I thought the knocking noise was an engine mount or perhaps some backlash in the gearbox. -
Citroen Berlingo Multispace (1998 - 2010) - 08 1.6 Engine running on. 2 Nov 2008 (Forum)
But when I insisted that I'd been in the trade myself as a mechanic & never come across anything like it, he booked it in to be checked out & found nothing. I think there is something amiss, because my mpg is crap. If I get in touch with Citroen Technical, they'll simply refer me to my dealer. Anyone shed any light on this phenomenon? Cheers BeeJay -

Citroen Xsara (1997 - 2004) - 2002 2.0HDi - Dead Remote Locking 5 Apr 2008 (Forum)
The car gave a lurch and the Hazard lights came on. Since then the remote locking has not worked. Both myself and Citroen have been through the key-reset procedure to no avail. it looks as though the car has turned the remote facility off completely. I feel that it is a software problem somewhere. Cirtoen say that it MAY be an aerial or an ECU problem., and have quoted me around £150 for the ECU and a further £100 for fitting. -
