    I have owned a couple of Citroens and have loved them all. I love this car but will never buy another again as the dealerships are terrible. If anyone has had a similar experience or can shed any light on what may be wrong then please can you let me know.

  • Diesel engine - Diesel engine 10 Dec 2014 (Forum)
    The Citroen/Peugeot 1.4L Diesel engine has been used for some non motoring uses as it is easy to adapt due to its simple design. Are there any other diesel engines with a similar design. Mechanical injection.

  • Switches and controls you like-dislike 13 Dec 2009 (Forum)
    I used to like the foot dipswitch on the old Torris Traveller and that pod on the older Citroens that was by the steering wheel and did everything just about. I like the foot operated handbrake on my old Merc but some hate it! Any controls you love or hate?
  • General Question - Brake pad shims 28 Oct 2008 (Forum)

  • Happy with your car? 6 Oct 2007 (Forum)
    There seems a lot of bashing of certain makes of car and I wondered if roomers experience of their car corresponded with the knocking. Citroen for one get fearful criticism but other back roomers seem perfectly happy with theirs and you see quite a few used as taxis which must be a hard life.

  • New C5 6 Nov 2004 (Forum)
    I received an information pack from Citroen today on the new C5. I am a bit disappointed to see that the new six speed auto box, that is in the V6, has not found its way into the 2.2HDI. It would benefit from at least a five speed box, as it is not happy below 50 mph in 4th gear.
  • Pug 306 Cylinder head 15 Jun 2004 (Forum)
    Hi, I am about to replace the cylinder head on a M-reg 306DT. Does anybody know which of the Pug/Citroen varients have the same head? I.e. Pug405DT? I am sure a 405 head will be cheaper at the scrapyard than a 306 head. Thanks

    The top of the engine is heavily shrouded which makes identifing the engine manufacturer difficult. Handbook says Rover, but I suspect it is originated by either Peugeot, Citroen or Perkins. Any ideas?
  • Electrolytic Effect 4 Feb 2003 (Forum)
    Folks, The Citroen XM seems to have a reputation for eating radiators and heater matrices due to "the elctrolytic effect". That is, as I understand it, a "battery" effect between two metals eats away at one of them/ both of them.
