Citroen C1 Service DIY + Cabin Filter Replacement. CityBug/C1/Aygo/107 Service by Father & Son

Dad and Lad do a full engine service on Citroen C1/Aygo/107/Citybug. So easy a child could do it?

[@simonjj7397]

I will now be doing this myself. Great instruction, great filming, clear and made simple enough to tackle. Cheers again.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Simon J.J. It’s a nice easy job on these 🙃

[@simonjj7397]

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos yes it looks pretty straight forward, parts are easy to get and cheap. I will be following your vid for sure, great help, thanks again.

[@enemycrab9229]

Top bloke. Just bought a C1. These videos will be essential. Thanks so much 👍

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

You’re welcome mate 🙂

[@jusb1066]

Having worked on loads of cars over the years and some oil filters in stupid places, it does indeed look about the easiest car ever, everything is just so quick

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Jusb1066 pretty much everything is easy on these little shitters, best thing about them.

[@gustaferiksson2575]

Just a tip! Tilt the washer fluid can to the side when you fill in the car, then you wont spill that much! Works with engine oil as well! 😊

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Yes good tip, it lets the air in and stops the glugging.

[@gustaferiksson2575]

Yes, simple and effective.

[@billyhynes8429]

Fantastic and northern made it even easier to understand and with a smile

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Thanks mate, hope it helps

[@tantanjk]

6 months later and did my first car service ever on a car thanks to this vid ✌🏻

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Good do, hope it helped 🙃

[@oproudy]

Quality mate 😂 kept me entertained. Might do this on my C1 eventually 👍🏻

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Get it done, it’s a piece of piss on these!

[@shingerz]

Good job there I do these jobs myself on the Mrs c1 very satisfying to do cracking video 👍

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Definitely, I get a strange gratification from servicing a car.

[@Lassitude1001]

😂 When you got to tyre pressures.. "32 all around.." which is where I thought to myself I'm sure I've got mine at 34... "34 if you're fat" - oh that'll be it. Made me piss!

[@micheals1992]

To be honest I think the pressure recommendation for the Aygo is a bit low anyway. The tyres look a bit flat at 32psi and my wear pattern seems good and even at 38psi the ride is a bit bumpier but that's about it. When I used to inflate to 32psi I found the shoulders of the tyres wore faster then the centre.

[@laughingdog1125]

like how your very patient with your son

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

I must be,.. cos he’s really annoying and if I wasn’t he wouldn’t have survived this long.

[@laughingdog1125]

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos hahaha

[@micheals1992]

Not sure if you spilt screen wash on purpose but if you do it again when the bottle is full it's best to start pouring with the cap at the highest point and slowly rotate the bottle as it empties. The only issue I've had servicing my Aygo outdoors is wind when filling the oil, if a gust makes you spill it on the engine you've got to act fast as the auxiliary belt is right below the oil filler cap and if you get oil on that you'll need to clean all the pulleys and probably replace the rubber auxiliary belt.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Yea, ideally you want the cap to be the highest point when pouring. Then the air can get in to the bottle without gulping.

[@albertsmith1048]

Another top class tutorial, with apprentice it has to be said.

Cheers mate

Useful info

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Makes a change from most of my videos 🤣

[@somerandomname9252]

Excellent vid. Great teamwork! 😂👍🏻 Appears if I don’t rope my son into helping do this Service, then the job isn’t done properly! Hopefully your son receives the majority of the pocket money earned in advert commission from this video. He earned it. 😁👍🏻 Looks straightforward. Another task to smash soon.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Haha cheers mate. Yea these cars are so easy to work on!

[@user-pqk91918qqk]

When you screw the new spark plugs, did you just screw them until you can't do it anymore? On other youtube videos there is a torque specification pattern or something like that, but being a beginner I'm not sure how it works. Is it fine if I just screw the new spark plugs until I can't screw them anymore? Thanks.

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

There is a torque setting for them, 27Nm I believe. It’s not critical, it’s just a setting that’s tight enough to not come loose but not so tight that you’ll strip the threads or snap a plug. They want to be nipped up but not pulled on hard as you can easily snap them. Once you’ve done a few you get the feeling for how tight they should be without a torque wrench, but if you’re unsure then might be better to play it safe and use a torque wrench.

[@tantanjk]

This is fucking brilliant. Just got me self a c1 and will do the service myself now. Only thing im missing is a parts list in the beginning or in the description. But bang on m8

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Thanks mate, I should probably do that,.. but then the video has a chance of becoming bordering on useful 🤣

[@shhssnsjs1910]

Nice

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

Thanks mate!

Bloke can you tell me which plugs you bought? Fleebay comes up with 3 different versions for my Pug.

NGK LFR6C-11 I think they were mate

Is the pollen filter only on cars with a/c??

Yes, I should have mentioned that in the video.

Think your torque wrench is faulty mate didn’t hear the click on the last spark plug 😂

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

It mustn’t have met the desired torques 😬

[@wojciechwegrzyn9926]

If I was you I would cover air filter chamber while working with coils etc. as I guarantee you don't want to fish any nuts or bolts from intake manifold 🤣

[@StupidBlokeStupidVideos]

They would have trouble squeezing through the icv to get passed the closed throttle body, but if they did I think the easiest way to get them out would be to hold the revs at 6500 until they came out the exhaust 🤔
