Re: Can a radio be changed from one vehicle to another

@Fihen

If your car is of an earlier year <2002 check if the radio will work on a non multiplexed system.

Re: High consumption 13.5l/100km

I don't care about the computer, as I have an old Win XP machine collecting dust. And the warning is because the cracked software already contains a virus in it :-).
But could this hurt the car?

Re: High consumption 13.5l/100km

I'm probably going to order one from ebay…

Even if everything is OK with the car, should be a nice toy to play with.
I checked one offer and it says:
V7.83 Full Chip USB Diagnostic Tool For Citroen Peugeot Lexia 3 PP2000 Diagbox.
Should I purchase the S.1279 module also?

I checked with an OBDII reader and found a strange thing: Screenshot_20190313-074106.jpg Could I be missing a catalyst or a sensor? P.S.

Re: High consumption 13.5l/100km

Hi Gazza82, that is how I calculated, full fill-up, drive 3/4 of the tank (never let it go below 1/4) and refill. it varies from drive to drive, but average from 3-4 fill-ups is 13.5l/100km. As for driving style, mostly urban driving, without pushing it before the engine warms-up. But once it gets w...

High consumption 13.5l/100km

Re: Black Dashboard dials

The earlier <2003 models of 206cc were a sort of all-out design (white dials, 2.0 engine, 16" wheels) after the hype passed a bit, more 'sensible' versions appeared. There fore the dials were standard black ones and white 'sport' dials were an option.

Re: How to get a power wire from the engine bay to the cab

I spent hours trying to find the grommet and plastic part behind the glove-box. Then I realized since my car has the steering wheel on the left, this is actually positioned under the steering wheel. From then on it was pretty straight forward: - Locate the grommet on the inside (this must be done bl...
