Cleaning the MAF sensor of the Citroen C5 X7.

Model: Citroen C5 X7, RD, MK 2 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the Citroen C5 shows a non-progressive power delivery, especially at low revs, and at the same time the engine malfunction light comes on, we can solve these problems by cleaning the MAF sensor located near the air filter. Open the engine hood, locate the filter in the center of the engine, disconnect the electrical connector from the sensor body, loosen the clamp of the outlet pipe, use a small wrench to unscrew the two screws that secure the mounting flange and remove the sensor. Spray the entire sensor with a cleaning spray, wait for it to dry completely, and then reassemble it.

How to Dismantle the Heating Radiator on a Mini Cooper

Let’s see how to dismantle the heating radiator on a Mini Cooper. First, remove the plastic cover of the centre tunnel (located under the centre tunnel on the left). Unscrew the securing screws with a screwdriver, and remove the black plastic cover that hides the heating radiator. Once all the described operations are completed, move to the engine bay: remove the plastic engine cover and disconnect the two hoses (unscrew the securing clips if present) of the radiator that goes into the cabin, allowing the fluid to drain. Disconnect the radiator from the pipes inside the cabin. Work in reverse for all the assembly steps.
