I am guessing but it could be the particulate filter is sufficiently blocked to cause exhaust back pressure to become excessive.

If this is the case the car will need the solvent reservoir topping up and diagnostic equipment using to initiate a cleaning cycle.

SOURCE: citroen dispatch 1.9 diesel hard to start

You need new heater plugs by the sound of it.
could be possible fuel pump starting to fail but unlikely if its just when cold.

SOURCE: my puegot 407 has a message telling me depollution

this could be the lambder sensor or the catalyst is on its way out, bare in mind though these computers are sometimes wrong on this model so get a second opinion from a garage. Sometimes they just need a good run out or a sensor cleaning.

Depollution system faulty the engine is dead car want go

Is there any fault indication on the dash where the radio display is.
Anti pollution is basically citroens way of saying emissions system so it could be as simple as a loose emissions pipe but from what you say and the car does not run it could be your catalytic converter (part of the exhaust system) has failed causing the engine management system to cut in and protect the engine.
If there is no fault apart from anti pollution showing in the radio display find someone with a diagnostic machine to give you a better idea of the fault. Hope this helps a bit.

Citroen C8 depollution system faulty

These motors and some other models with the same system always give problems .Havent done one myself as yet but other mechanics have that i talk too and if this is a diesel which has this system then you remove the particle filter on the exhaust system and make a rear box to fit type job and the sensor you disconnect and solder a resistor of around the 10.000 ohm mark across the sesnor wires to make the computer think all is well .Depends on the year though as to weither this will work satisfactory as a 53 plate sounds misteriously like some sort of secret code to me .Just noticed it says petrol 16v Hmm have to think again here as no idea with this one only ever see a diesel variant but if the cap fits so to speak have a look to see if has got a filtering out exhaust system if not then sell it quick and buy a ford or a VW

I have a citroen dispatch and a warning light on the dash keeps coming on, it looks like a shower head, what is this?

Hi, i'm pretty sure that it's the warning light to tell you to drain the water trap on the bottom of the diesel filter.
Hope that helps Matt...
