Re: Keyless key fob not working after battery change.

Thank you very much for your reply. I've checked the battery and it is in the right way. BUT..... I hadn't removed the little sticker on the back of the battery!!!!! All (not surprisingly!) is well now. Thank you for your advice!

Keyless key fob not working after battery change.

I've just changed the battery in my keyless key fob. I've held the fob up to the left hand side of the steering column and I can switch on the ignition and start the engine. When switching off the engine no key is detected so I have to long press the stop/start button. The engine can only be started...

Keyless entry occasionally not working.

The keyless entry on my car occasionally doesn't work (with either key), and very occasionally the car is 'sluggish' to start, although it does always start. It's a petrol C3 Aircross which will be four years old next month and has just under 40k on the clock. It has done it now and then since last ...

Using more oil since wet belt changed at dealership

I have a 2021 70 plate C3 Aircross Flair 1.2 petrol 110hp with just under 40k on the clock. For my own peace of mind I had the wet belt replaced at the dealership two months ago. I've done approximately 2000 miles since then. Today I needed to top up the oil and it took one litre, which is more than...

Car not starting as it should

Hi. I have a C3 Aircross Flair, 1.2 petrol, 110hp, registered in February 2021. In recent days, on three occasions when starting the car the engine has turned over much longer than usual, and sounds slightly 'feeble'. On one of the start ups the engine started as normal, but there was a slight squea...

Anti perforation warranty check

My C3 Aircross was registered in February 2021. My local Citroen dealership have the car today for other work and have done the anti-perforation warranty check due when the car is four. As far as I know the warranty check can be done a month before or after the registered date. Would anyone know if ...

Re: Timing Belt Advice - C3 Aircross 1.2 Puretech 110bhp

I think I've PM'd you the VIN. I think! The bit I thought was maybe a slight crack starting in the belt I've circled, but I'm not sure. I have had the car serviced twelve months after the first service. I'm now concerned that the first service (before I bought the car) was done within the required m...

Timing Belt Advice - C3 Aircross 1.2 Puretech 110bhp

Would any of you kind people be able to offer your thoughts about the timing belt on my February 2021 70 plate car please. The car has done 32,000 miles. I bought it when it was 20 months old. It had around 12,000 miles on the clock but had only just had it's first service (it had been sat on the ga...
