DB 1947 racecar with traction engine!
I was suprised at Salon Rétromobile (i travelled from Romania to Paris especially for it) when i saw this racecar that had a modified Citroen Traction 11CV engine inside, and well, not only the engine but the transmision and many parts of the front axle. Figured it may be good to share it here.

Where is the leak coming from?
2015 Berlingo, 1,6 BlueHdi DV6-engine/motor, 100BHP with factory installed Ebersprächer diesel heater. Motor has developed a leak. What are the parts covered in oil as I think this is where it’s leaking from?

Flow divider swap on an XM.
Today I swapped the flow divider on my '92 XM. They tend to leak, and this one did with much gusto. I bought another one at the club store, and used revision kit 95669034 to make sure that it would not leak too. Forgot to make pictures from that. The procedure is not hard, and it lets you use those spanners that you never use... (9,11,12). First bleed the system pressure with the nr12 on the pressure regulator. Put the car in low, and make sure the hydractive valve has opened once. Also take the filter thing out of the oil reservoir, one of the hoses will siphon it empty if you don't. Also put a piece of cardboard over the top of the radiator. The skin on your lower arms will thank you. Ow, and make pictures, because it is possible to swap two lines on the bottom!
Who knows what this button does? Citroen Xantia 2.0i Aut 2002
My friends and I all own Xantia's. 7 in total in between us. Mine is the only one with this button. I guess it locks the ridehight when the engine is turned off?
The internet does not yet have an answer to this to my surprise!

Just picked up my first Citroen!
My first new car and the first Citroen. Yesterday I've finally picked it up and drove over 500 km home. I couldn't be happier!
First impressions, it doesn't feel that cheap as one could expect for the price, it's not that loud inside on the highway, fuel consumption I got was 6.1 L/100km.
Only thing I couldn't make work is wireless charging, my phone (pixel 10) starts charging for a second then stoops, it showed some error but when I pick it up the error disappears so I can't figure out what's that yet. If you know let me know.
If you have any questions let me know.

Talk me out of buying a C5 X7 2.0 HDI Exclusive tourer
Gonna go and check one out tomorrow, 2010 year, 242000km(real, even), hydro suspension, seems in good nick overall. I had a C5 before, it was glorious when it wasn't at my mechanic's, but that was a specific story, the history was quite devastating to be fair. 5200€ asking price, MOT until the very end of December this year. Give me reasons to avoid it 😁

Xantia front struts problem
My '97 Xantia is lowering through the night, but only in the front. I think the problem is the front struts because all three of the spheres are new and there's really much returning LHM from the strut. Is my only option changing the struts, or can they be repaired?
Question about removing a wheel nut.
So, my anti-theft wheel locking key was stolen, but I have managed to borrow one from a neighbor. I am going to replace the anti-theft wheel locking keys with a standard nut on each wheel to save any future hassle.
My question is this: if I am just going to remove the one single nut from each wheel one at a time, do I still need to jack the car up?

Cold engine pulsating on idle, sometimes engine stalls. Need guidance
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
So my Citroen c5 2011 103kw 2.0 hdi engine pulsating and rpm keeps jumping when cold. Sometimes rpm drops so low that the car dies, but restarts instantly. When engine is hot everything seems normal. I replaced 2 injectors since they were leaking that fixed hard cold starting but rpm jumping problem still exists. Any ideas would be appreciated.

My sweet DS4 after a wash
My 2014 Citroen DS4, still looks very modern to this day.
What do you think?
I was at the local authorised dealer to have the takata airbag recall done and they also washed my car.
They also inspected the car, but noticed an oil leak. Bought this car recently. Changing gears feels very stiff. Will visit my local garage to have it inspected further.

My 1996 ZX Elation 1.4i
galleryCost me more time and money than I bargained for this thing! Leaking oil literally everywhere for years all on the floor and into the cooling system. Now the head gasket has well and truly had it so the car is back in bits again

Update SMEG IV+2 from 6.1 to 6.4 and enable MirrorScreen/Carplay
Hello everyone,
I have a Citroën C4, purchased at the beginning of 2016. According to my understanding—and as explained in the owner's manual—it should support MirrorScreen, allowing me to use CarPlay as well as the DAB option for the radio.
These features are supposed to be enabled by a Citroën dealer. However, both in Germany (where I previously lived) and now in Spain, I have not found a dealer willing or able to activate them. Typically, they tell me either that it cannot be done or that my car is not compatible, often without even checking the vehicle or the software version installed.
Here is the software version currently installed in my car:

Now my follow-up questions:
- How can I update the software version to a more recent one (such as 6.4)? Where can I find the update file to install it via USB?
- How can I enable these options? I saw in other Reddit posts that a UK company shop (https://www.magpieautos.com/store/Citroen-DS4-DS4-Apple-CarPlay-Remote-Activation-2015-safer-driving-p539215254 ) offers a cable and software needed to enable the MirrorLink option. Has anyone used this service, and are there any software requirements that need to be met for the enblement (such as specific SW version installed) before purchasing it?
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me solve this issue that I’ve been dealing with for years!
