  1. Just so I look like I know what I am doing... How can you spot an overfuelling problem. I have driven the car a fair bit and had no issues until the injector, then after than this bloody DPF message.
  2. Does this count as spam? Message Hi iam interested in this car, was looking at a £3800 cash figure. Looking to view this weekend. many thanks Interested in VRM VE11NWV Description KIA Soul SHAKER CRDI 1.6 5dr Colour Brown Price £4,750.00
  3. I green laned a Toyota Surf (remember those) 16 years go now. Like you say, brilliant fun and the stuff the car managed to get through was impressive. Would have liked to have done it in company as I had visions of being stuck alone in the middle of nowhere and having to eat my own arm.

  6. When you click on the image Dave, it opens in a new full screen
  7. Looks lovely Dave but here's an idea to battle the cold...... Get you firends around and let them all piss in the hot tub again (reference to Dave's drunken antics in a much earlier thread)
  8. I keep getting excited about this snow warning but it doesn't seem to come. Can't wait to waft past people in the Disco and see what it can do. Will it be the best 4x4xfar - let's see.
  9. That is very sad, hope you're ok mate.

  11. Interesting, this is the same car that we had to replace an injector - there were no faults present before that.
  12. Exactly the same here: SERVICE followed by Risk of Filter Blocking - see Handbook. Now, garage ran a test which measures gases either side of the DPF and it was showing green through the revs, so he didn't think it was the DPF. I said and was conformed (apparently) by the Citroen guy to just change the DPF and eliminate that. This must be a sensor issue, car drives spot on, dare I say I quite like the car and as for the customer - the nicest, most understanding customer I have ever dealt with.
  13. One of best features on any tourer, shooting brake or whatever that I have owned. I can access the boot without worry about the dog jumping out into the road whilst loading unloading shit.
  14. I have a border collie, the most intelligent dog. Never mind how I lock the car, you should see the looks I get when she drives me back from the pub.
  15. This is well documented on every crime watch type program and the reason it is now so difficult to cut JLR keys.
  16. I do - sometimes I leave my dog in the boot for her own safety and open just the glass for her ventilation. It is a great feature.
  17. For what it is worth vs cost - this is always my first port of call.
  18. See, I don’t think it is choked whatsoever - for some reason it just thinks it is. My old 4.4 TDV8 was sublime - sure that’s a Pug Unit.
  19. It’s a timing belt and we changed that already (thought it was due at 60k)
  20. Sparky - thank you so much. Please can you PM your number when you’re back and I will sort something out with you. Or you can find my details at www.imperial-marques.co.uk Thanks again mate - very good of you. Dad lives in Buckley by the way (near Mold)
  21. My first ever trade plates were awesome, massive bullky triangle with three sharp screws holding the rent disc in place and some big ass rubber plate hangers. That wasn't the best bit though, that was the number (can't remember the two letters) which was 007 My dad says, you've always been a lucky bastard
  22. Thank CB I am not a techy and only have a generic scanner which doesn't read the car. The workshop have Snap Off but before doing the DPF replacement, they called in a favour from a chap with Dealer Level diag. Again, only third party information and I have some doubts.
  23. The car has had everything done and service issue (DPF) has come on after less than 20 miles on a new filter cartridge. Yes, it comes up to temperature and prior to changing the DPF accepted 2 forced regens and believe me it got hot (but very little smoke).
  24. Thanks Mates I will keep you updated. No more messing around, customer is nice as pie and wants a repair, so will seek Citroen specialist or even main stealer. I would do anything for nice customers.
  25. Yes - it is a bladder tank saying 3/4 full
