BX Club Forum

Thanks Andrew, please pass on our best wishes from Michael, jack and myself.

Whatever part you want, the best way to start looking for the right bit is to sign up to Citroen Service and track down the original part number....

Hi Ned

Welcome to the forum.

Some pictures and its mot situation would be helpful,

also what year is it.

Thanks

The 16 auto is OK, but a bit thirsty. Certainly no performer - slow onto a roundabout and from the lights. Not all had PAS. Needs it.

Ok thanx for that, i have removed the head and piston, the piston seems to have just one non metal-almost a hard plastic type piston ring which looks...

I'm pretty sure I wont bother with one.
Good call. A classic example of cheap-looking 'go faster' bling. I don't think they have many fans, and with...

Thought you probably would have by now, but might be useful info for someone!

Ok, so we have established the paint code is EWT, so what does UA1 represent? Just out of interest. This is on a small white sticker approx an inch...

Should have called Nelson European Car Specialists Ltd

Maybe it would of been interesting if it was made a year before it was registered or my birth date, or a date that's means something personally to me.

very lucky, well caught. Has it had the crank deal done and not had the pulley tightened properly perhaps?

No worries.

I think you were confusing 'repair' with 'restore' :D

Weird - there are two threads running on this! As I said on the other one, looks a very good job - better than many I've seen on here. No worries on...

Tim, i think QD Stores are mainly in the East Mids we have quite a few round here, it's like the equivalent of Wilkinsons or the like.

Also how thick is the upper panel that covers where the Windows would have been? Should be able to see how thick it is from the boot edge.

If you overfil it just comes out the filler do no drama but just messy

Or a new temp sender for the gauge!

You've done 200k miles in 4-5 years?
haha. sorry ive corrected that!

Carbs still not 100 percent ive stopped the throttle sticking but im going to get somebody to have a nosey at the carb. Great fun to drive though...

D ied at the scene unfortunately and no it's not in the freezer. The Xantia on the other hand lives to joust another day.

Barry @ Bourne (Lincolnshire) did mine :)

Hi, I thought so what I will do is keep
it complete sorted.
Cheers.

The C4 is now with Barry at Bourne for repairs.

But more woes as the BX is now on a recovery truck back home (at 23.15!) as it's leaking coolant....

Rear wings on estates do suffer from rust issues usually just below the fuel filler and under the rear bumper, can be repaired but may mean new rear...

There's a guy selling a NOS AX steering column on eBay, which I could really use as my GT's column is a bit floppy.

He wants £150 for it! I don't...

No it is perfect, you are in a very envious position so stop worrying and enjoy.

The offset of the wheels will play the biggest factor. The standard 16v wheels are a bloody tight squeeze on an estate.

I've always found with hobby welders that the wire feed is the weak point, often due to the roller tension being uneven - on my old SIP Turbo, I made...

Will keep an eye. Not going to the National but will be charging past it four times today in the XM. Look for the poorleyest XM ever!

I would imagine you have some burnt out transistors which are used as resistors to slow down the fan speed. You will find much more info in the...

/\ as that apart from the recommended game of baseball. :-)

Off to the Moffat Rootes Enthusiasts Group car show tomorrow, with the Scottish section of the CCC.

Thank you very much, I can get them ordered then.

It was an electrical fire started by a water leak from the roof ariel starting a fire at the remote blip reciever then dripped down and burnt the...

good info, ill have to look into getting replacement sphers for mine too. i still kinda think that the whole getting the engine running thing is my...

It is the 16rs lhd car good to know wasnt too sure. I think the code is xu5c got the car wih my mate so would have to double check. Cheers for the...

Tim the TZi front seats are now sold to Richb. Im sure a certain Mr Goodyear will have a pair.

Oh, and am i the only one that thinks stamping on the brakes at 20mph it probably a surefire way to tell without loads of guesswork and technical...

Arrived and duly adorning the relevant cars!
