1998 Citroen Xsara VTR review from UK and Ireland
"Nice car to drive just got a few problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have a Citroen Xsara. When first bought it, it seemed fine nice and comfortable, until I was experiencing problem with the rev counter all of a sudden revving up to about 1500 rev then dying on me. Had that sorted then another problem occurred.
When the car was ticking over OK, the revs would just keep going up and down without me touch the acceleration pedal then constantly cutting out when idle, especially at traffic lights.
Can anyone shed any light on this because it is so annoying?
