Anti-pollution system anomaly on CitroenC3 petrol?
Years 2009-2016

Answer

It is a common problem for many motorists but do not worry because it does not say that the written? Anti-pollution system anomaly? cause a problem for the car. Unfortunately it is not easy to identify the causes of the anomaly, we could hypothesize that it is a problem with the pump, the latter is positioned above or inside the tank (or is incorporated into it next to the right rear wheel) and to find it you have to raise the rear seats of the car. Proceed by removing the fuel filter and draining the excess fuel, then insert a segment of rubber hose into the fuel inlet opening and blow. If this is not enough to make the warning light go out once your car is restarted, it is likely that the fuel pump is broken and you will need to replace it. In cases where the machine is affected and we are unable to identify the problem, immediately contact the nearest workshop for a check.
