@@waynekerrr9027 Normally when the A/C is mouldy or has a smell, it tends to be the evaporator drain pipe is blocked so the condensation/water can’t run away as it should. This can cause stagnant water and therefore the mould/smell. I would firstly research where the evaporator drain pipe exits the cabin and ensure it’s clear, then you can buy a can of “air conditioning cleaner/sanitiser” that you spray into the car. These cans are under £10 and easily found on eBay etc.. Sandy.

Like the Britool set, looks like they've seen a job or two. 😉 Good investment. Using flange drive sockets will help preventing rounding off the nut when tight. If you are very careful you can also gingerly use a strap wrench near the top of the filter housing where it's stronger together with the socket when trying to prevent rounding that plastic nut, just to help it a bit due to the better leverage. It's a three handed job though. 😉 I drain the sump first, hoping to get more out of the filter housing and loosen the filler cap. I have the same car/engine/ year and need to do this next. After watching, I now know how to remove the plastic piping. Thanks a lot for that. I will watch more of your stuff specific to this car. Oh, and one more thing related to the C3 picasso. Do you get any clunking from the rear axle going over bad road surfaces? I have done the shocks and checked for play everywhere. Even my mechanics couldn't find any faults. This is only a 20,000 mile car with new rear wheel bearings as well. Boot emptied of everything including spare. Its coming from the axle somewhere.

Yep, i’ve had my tools for many years and they’ve been used outdoors in all weathers (before i built the garage) Thanks for the tips about the filter housing, i’ll give them a go when i service the Picasso next time 👍 Regarding the rear axle there’s not a lot to them. Have you checked the main pivot bushes? Sandy.
@steven-k7j7v
@steven-k7j7v 11 күн бұрын
Thanks, yes. I did the shocks again with Monroe ones, as the initial replacement were cheapo ones and I hadn't really noticed the clunking before. We checked the axle bushings, brake calipers, exhaust, bearings etc. There were three of us, two mechanics and myself. I've also been spannering for over 50 years, so I have experience. We just couldn't find it, and I'm suspecting the bushes too, although no play seen with a tyre leaver and note only 20k miles. It's a very deep knocking sound and definitely coming from that area on rough surfaces. There's no towbar fitted. I did find an article about certain years of c3 rear axles having a problem at manufacture, leaving a chunk of metal in them. This is too much like play in a joint, shock mounts, and the like. And yes as you say that axle setup is simple. I haven't been in another one to compare, hence my question.

@@PocketRocketGarage There’s two opinions on this subject. 1. Give it a flush to clear out all the old sludge/bits. 2. Just change the oil and filter. I have always gone with option 2. If the engines working fine and you change the oil and filter regularly, i would just leave it alone. My dad used to say “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” I’ve only ever put an engine flush in, when i’ve had a head gasket go, and the oil was emulsified. Just had a look at your channel. I’m on holiday next week, i’ll have a binge watch from beside the pool 👍 Personally i wouldn’t flush the engine unless you’ve got other problems/symptoms. Hope this helps. Sandy.

Changed my sparkplugs today! And also changed the oil and filter and topped up the transmission oil a few days ago. I always go back to this and the other videos for reference. It's a great resource. Due to the cramped engine bay and the plugs being on the back it's doing everything by feel more than sight, so having your video really helps build an image of what the "feel" looks like :) Car running beautifully again now. It seems to have picked up power in the lower rpms. Before the new plugs opening the throttle fully should only be done well above 2000 rotations (especially since the last three months or so) or else she hesitates. Now she's fine no matter the conditions. Plugs looked fine. They were BERU 14KR-STUX (R6) with three electrodes, two of which had white carbon build up and one of the electrodes was black. There's some black dry residue on the threads, unsure what that is. And this was the case for all four cylinders. I replaced them with Bosch Super 4's and applied copper grease :) Many thanks for the videos! Pim

French owner of a C3 II 1.2 gasoline version, MY 2014, Citroen states on the user manual that the gearbox oil doesnt need to ever be changed but given your eye-opeining tutorial, i believe thats another of their marketing lies. Great explanations and step by step on how to do it. I'm seriously considering changing mine given we hit the 10 year anniversary of the vehicle. im sure the oil is mine might be even darker than yours!

@@afterburner94 Definitely renew the oil. Manufacturers (not just Citroen) advertise long servicing schedules, so they can say they are cheap to maintain, but it costs the car owner more in the long run because of premature wear etc… For the cost of the gear oil and a day playing with the car, it’s a no brainer 😉 Definitely a job to plan in this year when the weather gets warmer 👍 Sandy.
