Yep, I'm lucky in that Paul my local indy mechanic is a well experienced guy who
has always given me good service at a decent price.
When the old Galaxy failed on some pretty basic welding the MOT garage quoted me £210
They played it up like I was some numpty who'd never seen the underneath of a car.
I considered doing it myself but I dont like grovelling about under cars too
much nowadays so I took it to Paul.
He did it for £40 then I took it back and got me MOT
Result!

Of course
I cant see an email link to send the link direct so try this for starters

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BJMN6W … drive_link

IIRC I have be logged into Google to enable the share to go ahead so you may have to give me time to get it together
as it's not my primary email account

It does work and I've installed it twice now
the initial boot in the VM/XP takes few minutes to load from Win10 but once loaded it's not too bad to use
I haven't tried to input a VIN yet but can get the wiring info once I input the RPO
which is on a sticker on my drivers door, in my case 10829
an earlier model will have lower number.

I got mechanical info without having to input a VIN, just vehicle specs

Got the Gates cam belt kit and water pump done today
the belt didn't look to bad for 60 thou but the tensioner and pump
looked deffo second hand
I bought the parts for around a oner and my local guy did it for £120 so quite happy
I now wish I got him to do the oil and filter as I did it myself and it got a bit messy sad
Anyhoo, its done now.
Ordered a thermosat and will do the rad flush when it arrives

Cant be arsed to find, haggle and fit a cradle and wheel
I do have breakdown cover but  will Goop the tyres anyway and hope
for the best.

#330 Re: Maintenance » Spare wheel » 2024-05-09 23:22:58

yep the cradle has been removed at some time and there's a big space under the floor at rear
I see the floor drains have pipes hanging down from them but cant see why they had the remove the
spare wheel to do that unless they say a capture tank under there at one time.

Anyroadup, I have no spare or means of stowing it underneath.

I have just discovered the van has no spare wheel
or even the cradle underneath for one
Yeah I know, shoulda checked.

Anyway, I'm thinking about grabbing a second hand space saver wheel
and see one with tools for a 308 T7 MK1 so would that fit or does anyone have
tips on compatible wheels for a 2006 Expert?
I see it has 205/65/R15 tyres fitted so 15" rims

#332 Re: General Discussion » My 'New' van » 2024-05-09 16:37:25

I decided to remove all that previous lining out as it wasn't insulated and
wanted to have a clear deck to work from.
the extra few inches of head room is nice

I did leave the floor alone, too much faff tearing that up and it will be covered later anyway.

I also removed the crusty old roof vent, treated the rust areas and while rooting about for something to cover it with found a peice of translucent 10mm cast acrylic, Perspex in fact which is UV tolerable.

I measure the centre hole and PCD of the bolt holes and cut it out with a 2mm lip
on the wee CNC machine and fitted it with silicone and temporary screws.
I have some M6x20 SS button head bolts on order which I'll fit later
When the silicon has cured I'll give the roof a good scrub too.

the 'skylight' does help lighten it up in the back a bit too

Next Tuesday Its booked in for the Gates cam belt kit and water pump to be fitted and
I'm assembling the parts for oil and filter, fuel filter, air filter, thermostat and fresh coolant jobs, plus a radiator flush with the heater matrix getting special attention.
I'm hoping all the AC needs is a regas

#333 Re: General Discussion » con rod bolt. » 2024-05-04 21:10:03

How did you snap an M10 bolt anyway
is you on steroids or summat?
big_smile

#334 Re: General Discussion » con rod bolt. » 2024-05-04 21:05:15

I thinks it's DW8B engine?
Some Googling tells me the Citroen C5 2001-2004 diesel uses the same part number 0607 37
and they're only £19.24
Still not cheap but better than £30

#335 Re: General Discussion » My 'New' van » 2024-04-30 19:45:51

Thanks both of my keys start the engine so must have chips in I suppose
Another fob would be nice though but no rush at the mo, I'll get back to the servicing soon..
Not sure what Lexia is, is it some kind of diagnostic software?

#336 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-30 19:34:30

I've reinstalled the VM/XP/SEDRE thing and started saving most the wiring diagrams/schematics/install svg pics for this model year and spec  to a USB stick.
Now that tee cee has pointed me to the info page, I can make better sense of them and will start converting them to PDFs soon
and annotate them as i build my own manual bit by bit.
I'll also see if I can find the service and repair procedures its supposed to have, I have seen ones for setting the side doors up and the cambelt procedure so it may well have plenty more.

I found I could also print pages directly from the Virtual machine which may be handy for some
but I want digital files I can edit and annotate at the moment.

I still have it on my google drive if anyone else wants to download and play with it.

#337 Re: General Discussion » My 'New' van » 2024-04-30 10:16:18

Yesterday I swapped the PCB and key blade to a new case
as the buttons wore so worn out it was difficult to operate.
The only real snag was getting the rivet out of the old one
as it was solid steel.
The rivet in the new case is partially hollow and takes a counter rivet to
lock it in.
It seems secure for now but if I have any concerns I'll put some epoxy on it,
just happy I can lock/unlock without carefully using a fingernail now.

I have two keys which work but I'll keep the SX9 blank in case I want a 3rd key
Apart from being cut, I assume it will need a transponder IC and need programming if I wanted to use it
for anything other than opening a door.

#338 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-26 21:21:27

Aha ! Thanks Tee Cee, that is certainly very useful
I've bookmarked and downloaded it.

Is this typical Citroen/PUG/Fiat? its a new system to me but
that page means I can make sense of it

#339 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-26 20:13:47

the VM/XP bollox I paid for and downloaded works for me but its clunky and slow.
As far as wiring diagrams go this is the best I can find so far

No cable colours, devices have numbers but where is the legend
to tell me what they are?

I can work out some OK but a device list would damn well help
when looking at more complex systems
BB00 is the battery obs
1020 alternator
1030-8048 for instance are relays
1030 is activated when the engine starts/runs

8052 looks like the main blower
controlled by 8043 which takes a variable voltage input from
8025 pin 6 to run some kind of PWM I'll guess with a straight through option for full whack, why the led?

I see no reference to the heat flap control in the only heater wiring diagram
I can find
Not exactly useless but bloody annoying so far.
Here's the page had to copy via usb stick from svg to pdf then jpg for
a smaller quicker size to upload

#340 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-26 20:12:39

That Scudo link looks useful thanks got it book marked

#341 Re: General Discussion » My 'New' van » 2024-04-26 18:53:37

I had to use the van today to run around fetching stuff
and it only got to 75 ish so will get another thermostat.
The hot air felt good initially but soon went cold as I used the fan
which does reinforce the clogged matrix/restricted flow theory.

I'll use pukka rad flush and see how that works but
I see I can get a new matrix on Ebay for £40 ish so that remains an option

All the stuff in the cabin and cargo space is longterm tinkering/fun stuff
so not critical, so I'm thinking I should prioritise work to stay focussed

Sort heater/thermo/antifreeze out, I've started so I'll finish.
New Oil&filter
New fuel filter
Air filter looks clean but that's an easy job
Tracking, it pulls to the left a bit and the wheel isnt straight.
It had some ball joints,boots  or summat done for MOT but it wasnt tracked after

Air con check, possible regas

The cam belt is at around 50% of its service life in miles and time
and want get that done before the end of summer possibly sooner
not sure to DIY or pay a garage, will get some quotes.

I've done quite a few cam belts and chains on other vehicles and bikes but this one looks a bit fiddly and cramped
in terms of access, so tempted to throw money at a garage if it isn't too expensive.

#342 Re: General Discussion » My 'New' van » 2024-04-25 19:48:58

Well after removing all the lower panels I found the heat control thingy
and it works.
I was kind of hoping it wouldn't so I could bodge in a manual control and
get on with other stuff

This suggests the low amount of heat I get from the heater is due to
clogged matrix or thermostat sticking open?
( it runs at 70C or so)
I think I'll have to clamp the pipes whip out the heater radiator and check the flow rate
but the coolant looks a bit murky so a rad flush and new thermostat wont hurt
I saw/hear/read that dish washer tablets can be used to flush rads
true? false?

#343 Re: General Discussion » My 'New' van » 2024-04-25 13:15:59

I still have to find and get to the heater flap actuator/s
It could well be due to low flow from the engine block and/or gunge in the heater matrix
or the flap system not operating or all of these things.
Coolant level at the header tank is good btw.

I do recall when driving it home the engine temp gauge didn't go above 75C
is this normal? looks a bit low to me, I'd expect around 90

#344 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-24 20:34:27

just seen that should be ok now

#345 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-24 20:23:20

Right, it uploaded in 2hr25min near as, have sent you link which I hope works

if it does the installation instructions are included and it installed on my win10 PC
its slow to load into VMplayer but gets better once yer in.

#346 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-24 17:50:58

Upload started, it will take ages I expect as uploads are much slower than downloads
its saying it will take 3 hours  yikes

#347 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-24 17:48:06

I'm outside playing with a scooty atm but will see if I can upload it to google drive
as that has a 15GB limit
if it works I'll pm you a download link

#348 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-24 14:50:08

Ah! just realised there's a manuals section, maybe I should have posted this there?

#349 Re: Maintenance » Pug service info (I think) » 2024-04-24 14:39:54

It was a  13GB compressed zip file to download and now almost 20GB unzipped, most this taken up by 31 vmdk files
where all the data is.
If it was just expert/dispatch/scudo stuff it would be a fraction of this and I'm annoyed at being mislead by the description
which I took to mean it was 2006 Expert etc data only.

Its slow to use, you have run vmware to  load the files in XP 32 bit mode and then input vehicle ID stuff like a VIN and or RPO numbers and it takes a while to get to anything useful.

There is also a Wiring diagram section and while it may well have some good stuff, it's a bit of a chore to use.
the diagrams are in svg format so I have to copy them to a USB stick to transfer them to my win10 partition
then I can use Adobe Illustrator to convert them to jpgs.

I'm pretty good at PC stuff but new to using virtual machines, luckily one of my lads is very good at this stuff 
and I'll ask him for cunning wheezes to get the best out of it and how best to extract just the stuff I need if possible.

I'm too busy to spend much time on it right now but when find way to get to the good/useful stuff, I'll post it up
I think it has data on models up to circa 2013

I bought what I thought was a service manual for the expert 2006
from that Ebay and got this
TBH not quite sure what I got, it looks like dealer info on all manner of pugs
it runs it under windows XP in a virtual machine and contains all manner of stuff
some of which may be very useful for all I know.
its says it has repair info and wiring diagrams and such too
I did find the sliding door fix and setup procedure so the may be other useful stuff
but its bit clunky to use unlike say a PDF
heres some screen pics, what do you think?
anyone want copy? its a hefty 13GB
