  8. Thanks.I have had a lot of water and at last this week main dealer is to look at it ince i pay 50euro a month guarantee.!!!!!!! The so called expert said it will be coming through the door speaker.but i have never seen any moisture here and i am positive it travels arond the door seal and enters at the bottom over the main rubber seal connected to the car body. willlet you know if o.k. HAVE YOU HAD ANY OTHER PROBLEMS? I WILL JOIN THE YAHOO LINK. I have had several small problems such as1) safety belt does not contract always and then jammed in door.                                                                2)SMELL OF BURNING RUBBER ONLY FROM A REAR TYRE -i think it is tyre rubbing against plastic inside mudguard panel.garage could not find problem!!!!!!!!!!                                                                3)SQEAKING BRAKES.-a citroen speciality saves you using the horn!!!!!!!!!                                                                4)pollution control light making reduction in speed until garage swiches computer adjustment diagnosis on and resets it in a minute. not helpful if you happen to be driving  a long distance and not near a garage.where have all the proper mechanics gone -we cannot twinkle with our own cars now but that is supposed to be progress.!!!                                                                5)navigation control not working for months but after writing to Paris office received an avoir -or credit note for 200 euro .now working in all languages except English so nearly repaired but i suppose i am getting french lessons on the move.!!!!!                                                                6)Difficult access to remove rear lights plastic covers .                                                                7)only breakdown occurred when panel said stop as brakes problem-in fact some sensor below brake pedal prevented me from driving.                                                                   8)heavy om tyre wear on they are expensive at 250 euro each.-when my guarantee finished at the end of the year will look at alternatives but it is claimed they will give different driving properties.             Otherwise the automatic 2.2 diesel estate has run since jan.2002 over 106,000km's. giving good comfortable drive with loads of space for those trips to the garden centre-even managed to squeeze in a trailor for the lawn mower,-and the u.k. alan.              Otherwise drove 105000km

  11. Not met or heard of any in your area  but suggest you ask the tourist board and chamber of commerce etc. in case they can help.I live about 25 kms. from your village and have been here for 5 years. It was strange to me finfing so many Japanese restaurants in Notre Dam area when I was lookinf for a chinese one.[:P]
  12. I think garage talking rubbish because only my wife and I normaly  in car -we are retired and  rear seats and doors are used only occasionally .I would expect wear on drivers door naturally but only one of rear doors leaking and this is one which was also replaced last year .Sorry I did not make it clearer.
  13. I don't know about being good using no loo rolls---I would suggest dirty.! There is no way i will pay to see your granny !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!inow maybe i would pay to see you-to see you nice!!!!!!!! Now that is a special greeting by an idiot called Bruce Forsyth not to be confused with yellow bushes starting to flower  in my other half's garden.Other half on this planet are the worker's -you are allowed to have only one normally on earth .How many can you have on Mars? and are they any good?   On earth these beings nag the backside off the male's -that is why we have been trying for years to escape to your planet. Is it a good place to live and free of naggerites which is my own special name for these pests!!!!!!!!!!!!! We superior beings have to know this quickly before we are taken over by these demanding nagerite demons. p.s. did you invent those wonderful chocolate bars???????????????????///////[Www]

  15. I have 2001 estate Citroen C5  and noticed a lot of water enters  rear footwell via rear door. Local garage said it is wear of seals which i think is rubbish as car normally used with 2 in front.Seems worst when car parked in heavy rain.A new door was fitted a year ago following a small srape on wall when moving off . I NOTICE SEAL ON ACTUAL DOOR IS LIKE A VELCRO MATERIAL WHICH IS WET.-this seal only around top half of door. Anyone know of this problem or any recalls made before I visit Maindealer who is not that helpfull. I also pay a guarantee of 50 euro /month but local garage states seal not covered. thanks.[:@]
  16.

F[:P][:D]ATHER LIVED IN A HOLE-WORKED 25 HOURS A DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  17. Have you checked chlorine level? Does chlorinater show bubbles i.e. is producing chlorine when you switch on. What is temp. of pool and which area are you in -it seems strange if it is going green unless water above 10centigrade or did you winterise pool last autumn with a material to suppress growth in winter time. My pool once went green as it was not ciculated enough and chlorine level was too low. If you choc. dose pool and keep circulating water for 3 days it should start to clear.-you can buy these products. Did you clean chlorinater cell of deposits before winterisation? A FULLER REPORT OF MY PROBLEM WAS POSTED LAST MAY OR JUNE. LET ME KNOW HOW IT TURNS OUT.
  18. [:D]My daughter told the farmer one of the baby lambs had been born with 2 heads .!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   he ran into the field quickly but came back looking a bit sheepish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  20. Just a thought perhaps if you stayed at home they would'nt strike.   Sorry you left yourself wide open for that. If  you stay it is the anniversary of first Aldermaston March of  CND in 1958. MAYBE THAT IS WHY THEY ARE STRIKING- NO OFFENSE OLD BOY.[:)][8-|][;-)]
