GENERAL
LUBRICANTS - TOTAL recommended oils
API Norms:
The meaning of the first letter has not changed, it still corresponds to the
type of engine:
S: petroland dual fuel petrol/ LPG engines.
C: diesel engines.
The second letter corresponds to the degree of evolution of the oil
(ascending order).
Example:Norm SLis more severe than norm SJ, corresponding to
a higher level of performance.
Recommendations.
ESSENTIAL: To preserve engine performances, all engines fitted in
CITROËN vehicles must be lubricated with high quality oils
(synthetic
or semi-synthetic).
CITROËNengines are lubricated at the factory with TOTALoil of grade
S.A.E 5W-30.
TOTALoil of grade S.A.E 5W-30allows improved fuel economies
(approx 2.5%).
The oil 5W30is used only for the following engines (year 2004):
- XU10 J4RS: XSARA VTS 2.0i 16V (3-door).
- SOFIM: JUMPER / RELAY 2.8 TDi and 2.8 HDi.
- HDi: With particle filter (FAP).
- DV4 TED4: CITROËN C3 1.4 16V HDi.
- EW 12J4: CITROËN C8 2.2i.
- EW 10A: CITROËN C4 and C5 2.0i.
- EW10J4Sengine : CITROËN C4.WARNING: CITROËN engines prior to model year 2000 do not have
to be lubricated with oils adhering to the norms:
- ACEA AI-98and API SJ/CF ECor current norms ACEA A5/B5.
Denomination of TOTALoils according to country of marketing:
- TOTAL ACTIVA
(France only).
- TOTAL QUARTZ(outside France).

RECOMMENDATIONS/PRECAUTIONS : AL4 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Procedure to be followed prior to carrying out repairs on AL4 autoactive gearbox
If a gearbox malfunction occurs, there are two possible configurations
depending on the seriousness of the fault:
- Gearbox in back-up mode with a replacement programme of
(the fault
values are taken in substitution).
- Gearbox in back-up mode with an emergency programme (3rd hydraulic).
WARNING: In the emergency programme, an impact is felt when
changing P/R, N/R and N/D.
Réception client.
Discuss with the customer, to find out all the malfunction symptoms.
Oil quality - Oil level.
Oil quality.
If the gearbox has suffered a serious fault resulting in a malfunction or
the destruction of a clutch, the oil will overheat and become
contaminated with impurities: the oil is said to be «burnt».
This is characterised by a black colour and the presence of an
unpleasant smell.
ESSENTIAL: The gearbox must be replaced.Oil level
(see corresponding operation).
An excessive oil level can result in the following consequences:
- Excessive heating of the oil.
- Oil leaks.
An insufficent level causes the destruction of the gearbox.
Top up the level of oil in the gearbox
(if necessary).
Check using a diagnostic tool.
Read the fault codes
(engine and gearbox).
Absence of fault codes.
Carry out parameter measures, actuator tests and a road test.
Presence of fault codes.
Carry out the necessary repairs.
Delete the fault codes.
Carry out a road test to check the repair and, if need be, modify the
gearbox ECU parameters
(this is essential after an initialisation of the
ECU).
