Dont be embarrassed. Ive had mine for a year and it had just been serviced at 60000km. After 3 months the oil low message came up and thats when I found the horrible truth about the oil use. There must be 10000s of minis and citroens in the same boat

So, regardless, we should strongly advise everyone to top up frequently! Sure can't hurt.

I know there are dozens of posts on this but I had a thought. (Unusual! ) If this is old news just tell me to pull my head in. I read recently either here or on FB that the tensioner is hydraulic. All the petrol engines are known to use oil. Mine uses about 100ml per 1000km. It's never got too...

I'm in Aus so I can't, but couldn't you plug the plate into the database and see what comes up?

I looked at all the stick on insulator mats after I bought my THP200 15 months ago because it is noisy. I ended up doing nothing as there is so much conflicting and confusing info about sound deadening vs vibration damping. If someone has a good answer please tell us. I didnt want to buy one...

Thanks for the waffles. Keep 'em comin.

Some info for others who get this error. The error came up and the lh xenon was off. Since globes cost $100-$300 (AT AUTO shop, $40 odd on fleabay) I wanted to diagnose the prob. Xenonfitted cars come with car height sensors on the suspension . Or faulty ballast (the HV converter I think). Or...

Hi Ian, I sent a message but haven't seen an email I'm afraid. So I'll put it here [email protected]. Thanks very much for the offer.

I'd like one too thank you. I'm in Aus too.

i would say if you saw steam then a hose has popped off. You probably wouldnt see steam from a leaking seal. I had the same thing about 3 weeks after I got mine a year ago. the big hose from the radiator to the engine came off while driving. I think it wasnt tightened after some prev work. Dunno...

It's not the tank. Much lower and the drips are on the engine

Thanks for the replies. Yes, its pink. It's so tight at the front of the engine, I'm not sure if it can be done. I will take it to the local garage and see if they can find it. Be good to hear if anyone has changed the pump.

Hi all, a few weeks ago, after a few 40+ days in melbourne I noticed coolant drops under the car. Its very slow, about 100ml in 2 weeks. Often dries on the engine before it hits the ground. The leak is at the left hand end (front) while looking at the engine bay. Drivers side on RHD car. I have...

 Hi DKZ5745 I saw this post last year and got my Moroccan Red gt200 in April. I've had a few goes at loading my "new cooler bootscreen" but had no luck. It seemed to work with no errors but just displayed a black screen. I finally solved the problem. The jpeg was the right size. I noticed that...

Hi all, I had a plug coil die about 2 months ago, in extended warranty. A 2nd coil died 2 weeks ago. it happened on the Saturday and after using the OBD, I put in the spare i had bought and carried on. On the 28th I rang the warranty people to get a claim number but first asked why I hadn’t...

Had a wheelie good weekend! And I now have a full size spare. Eases my mind a lot. I bought 2 tyres a few weeks ago and the tyre man said he could find me a wheel. They had to machine it a bit but I tested it today and it's fine. It fits in the hole in the boot -tight- and the jack etc sit in...

Thanks neilgsxr69. Fingers crossed is not very reliable. :?

Hi all, I have an odd fault. Driving home from work the "engine fault repair needed" message came up with the little " ! " on the small screen and what I guess is limp mode- engine runs fine but seems to be no turbo boost. Poor acceleration. My obd shows no fault codes. Any ideas please reply...

Just like a lot of Japanese things, its all for show.

Ok thanks. Another article said they only work if the car underbody is flat. http://www.caranddriver.com/features/th ... -diffusers
