When I start up the car in the morning and the "heat dial" is on cold it blows lovely cold air. However, 10 mins or so into my journey when the car starts to heat up, the heat of the air that is blown out the vents gets very hot even when the dial is still on cold.

It has air conditioning but I never use it (its always turned off as I lose about 75% of the cars power when its on and it hard on the oul petroleum ).

Anyone come across a problem like this or have any idea how to fix it? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated..]]> https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2056669581/citroen-c1-clutch-replacement Wed, 13 Jun 2012 12:59:33 +0000 Motors celticbest 2056669581@/discussions
Over the past while the clutch has not been working correctly, I got it adjusted 2 weeks ago as it was reving very high. Now when trying to get it into get into reverse it grinds and when changing up or down the gears I have to take it slow in order to change.

I bought a replacement clutch last week for €125 new & was wondering if anyone knows anyone that would be willing to fit it & how much it would cost me.

Thanks...]]> https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2056490129/car-feels-totally-different-after-suspension-work Tue, 20 Dec 2011 20:25:07 +0000 Motors kenny_david 2056490129@/discussions but now the car feels totally different.
When I go over speed bumps the rear feels like it's hitting the bump a lot harder than before and when I go around coners the car feels very loose at the back and when I go around right bends the rear passageners wheels feels like it's pulling the car sideways.

I just wanted to ask
1. is this normal because there was work done on the suspension and the rear wheels need to be aligned again

2. Is there adjustments the mechanic can do to reslove this issue.

3. Is this bad work by the machanic and should I go back and complain as there was no major parts removed and the car feels different than before the work was carried out.]]>
