Just got my Bingo ( as my 3 year old calls it). 2008 xtr. First impressions good.
, Has full citroen history. Up to 65k now so thought I'd service it tomorrow. Is the air filter really under the scuttle . Did they really put that there? Am I going to have to take wipers off and remove scuttle and pipe work? If yes I will sort it out. If there are any cheats would someone point me in the right direction please. Cheers all
From what I`ve heard I think you`ve hit it on the head, bit of a pain i know ....:brickwall:
No, there is no need to go to such drastic measures as removing wipers etc etc
See
this pdf for how to do it ( you will only need the section marked 2.1 to remove and 3.2 to refit)
With the 'bolts' referred to as '3 bolts (5)', I found them very stiff to get out and would only turn a small amount at a time - took me half an hour get only those 3 bolts out
The rest is pretty easy
while you got it all off pop a K&N filter in there, only need cleaning every 50k, about £28 I paid, worth that in saved time and grazed knuckles
