actia lexia2 or ELIT

hi all,

I'm looking for a reasonable priced citroen lexia2 diagnostic computer or the ELIT computer. Perhaps someone has one that's broken lying around somewhere or some cables for it? If it's reasonable priced I'm interested ;)

Thanks :) I'm currently posting from spain. All went well and the valver drives the mountes up and down like a dream. Alternator still charges like it should so I guess the connection was a little dodgy. Just curiousity: how do you replace it without taking the aircon compressor off the car? Guess t...

That was the first thought that crossed my mind: dodgy connection. It charges like it should. Even with all equipment using max power (aircon on, blower full, etc) it shows at idle 12,8V and if I rev it a little it nicely comes up to 13,4-13,5. Idle without excessive power use: 13,78V Citroen dealer...

indeed that looks like a quite nice solution. Are you sure the diameter is the same? and how did you connect the small hoses together? With some kind of connector pipe or?

16v coolant hose

hopefully somebody can help me out. I'm looking for my valver for the thick coolant hose on the RHD side of the car that runs from the radiator to behind the engine to some kind of hose collector. The hose has a thin coolant hose connected near the radiator. the citroen number is 96029479. the hose ...

the initial problem was/is that my fans are now and then going to high speed when using the aircon (most probably due to the pressure in the system / heat because my coolant temp is perfect). one of the reasons could be a faulty switch/valve. I'm not eager to changing it for R143a, but if I'd change...

bx16v aircon r143a

Hi all I'm drivin' my valver with a lot of fun and since all (strange) ecu errors are solved and she's drivin' like a dream it's time to solve the little things. one of these things is the aircon pressure valve. the aircon has been rebuild for r143a. I've checked the system, replaced parts necessary...

(along with cap and arm) and is still on the same set of plugs Years on!! these engines do like a G...

does anybody have some more information on the pinking sensor of the 148hp phase two?

where exactly is it fitted on the car? My guess was beneath the inlet manifold between cylinder 2 and 3 or so? Anybody has some experience on replacing one?

Well at last! some good news. After changing the coolant temp sensor as well (had a spare lying around somewhere in a 16v cilinderhead) the error changed (the ecu light came on different times now). so, there were some jobs to be done (drive shaft gaiter kit, exhaust kit, etc) and why do a exhaust/g...

Mayby you lot have mor...
