Forum reliability...

Post by Ciaran » Wed Apr 06, 2011 12:57 pm

... or lack thereof lately.

Sorry the forum has been up and down like a yoyo lately guys, been having some issues with the hardware. I'm currently getting to the bottom of it.

The trouble is I've been indisposed for a period of time and unable to do anything other than shore it up for now, however I hope to rectify the issues properly within the next week or so.

Sorry for all the messing about, and thanks for your patience, normal service should be resumed soon.

Ciaran

we'd expect no different of a forum dedicated to the Citroen XM - a bit flaky at times, sometimes unreliable but otherwise excellent in every way!

More likely the height control valve - or would it be a transistor.
