Hey guys. I got the Accumulator Sphere in the mail the other day (the right one =) From somewhere I read that a chain wrench could be used as a sphere removal tool. I bought one but the chain is too big and does not fit around the sphere, it just goes sideways so there is no pull. After an 5 hour ni...

Okay guys. Thanks alot for the advice. I really appreciate it!

I'm no expert so it's great to be able to dig into your knowledge base!

All my best,
Joi

Thanks for this Jay. I've never heard of Citrobics but I'm going to try that and releasing some pressure. If nothing works I'll buy a new sphere on Ebay. They seem to be relatively cheap... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suspension-Sphere-Accumulator-CITROEN-BX-82-94-/380439620926#ht_2278wt_1195 The form...

Hi guys. I have encountered alot of problems for the past six months with my sweet BX 16 Soupapes. After reading the Forum thoroughly I'm forced to ask you guys for help... Problem 1) The exhaust pipe fittings broke down the other day. The whole pipe was hanging but I got that fixed at the garage. W...

Is it easy to get a new pulley somewhere? And easy to install? Not sure I'm skilled enough, even taking out the battery was tough for me. I did a test yesterday, keeping the motor running with the headlights on and then pressed the accelerator, but the headlights don't dim like they should according...

Hey fellow BXers. Im having a small problem. The battery light came on a month ago and the battery drained in 3 days. Got a jump start but after I got home it died again. Found out that the earth lead was ruined so I got a new one. But I didnt have a charger and my drained battery got ruined in the ...

Yes, old cars in the capital, Reykjavík, tend to rust because of the strong sea salt which someone told me is closely related to the gulf stream. But Akureyri, the second biggest city in Iceland, which is up in the north is actually a Citroen heaven, I think there are 300% more old Citroens there st...

Thanks guys! I was told they were only two, this white one and then a black one that has beeen scrapped. But on my way to the ferry last month I met a guy in the Icelandic countryside who said he had the same one in the color "Wine Red". I wouldn't call the red 16v a "Wine Red" s...

Hi hi guys. My name is Joi and I'm from Reykjavík, Iceland. Last march I bought the last BX 16 Valves in Iceland. It's a 1988 ph1 (marked 16 Soupapes) and has now been driven 230.000 km. I'm the 5th or 6th owner. It came with a repair history and notes dating all the way back to 1998. It also came w...
