Bonjour à tous,
je souhaiterais avoir votre avis sur ma situation et des conseils sur la marche à suivre, car je commence à être vraiment malheureux avec cette voiture.

J’ai acheté une Citroën C5 X7 2.0 BlueHDi, année 2015, 180 ch, boîte automatique, avec un kilométrage annoncé de 146 000 km. Je pensais effectuer un entretien d’entrée classique...

Hey everyone!

I’ve been chasing a fuel-related issue on my C5 X7 2.0 HDi for the last few months, and I’m hoping someone here might have some ideas.

I keep getting the following fault codes on and off:

P0094 (small fuel leak)

P0087 (fuel pressure too low)

P0183 (fuel temp sensor high input)

Sometimes it’s just P0094, sometimes P0094 +...

Hello guys, im new here.
Long time french cars lover, my first car was citroen CX, then my Renault 25 Baccara, peugeot 407 and now recently got a Citroen C5 from 2011, 1.6 Petrol.
The car is amazing and i love everything about her.
I have only one issue.
When i drive the car normal and accelerate normal, everything is ok.
But when i give it more...

Hi All, Is this an easy change part or is it best left to my local garage? I believe the part no. is 1920RX, and so far expert advice has told me it is located on the right hand side of the engine viewed from the front of the car, or under the throttle body, which I believe is on the left side of the engine. So, I thought I would ask those who...

I have a 2014 1.6 Picasso and the drivers door has started to not recognise whether it is open or shut. It still locks ok, windows and mirrors are all working. When I open the door the courtesy light does not come on, and when I try and lock the car, I have to open another door and then it locks fine.
How easy is it to check the wiring between the...

Hi all,

About three weeks ago my 2012 1.6hdi berlingo went into limp mode and had an error code of p0087.
I changed the fuel filter …….and after around 200mikes the issue came back.

It seems to only occur when I’m accelerating hard.

I took some readings on the fuel rail ect- can anyone tell me if they look ok?

Any suggestions? Thanks

I've replaced the turbo on a Citroen C4 Picasso 2013/2014
VIN - VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

Faults cleared from previous (low turbo and some others)

It ran fine for a couple of days but has now flagged up with P2563 - too much turbo

Any ideas what it could be?

Do I need to use Diagbox to initialise/re-learning the turbo replacement values?

Thanks

Good evening, everyone.

Hi All,
Recently had the battery stolen from a 2023 Citroen Dispatch 1.5 BlueHDi, whereby they snapped the top bracket in the process.
Picture attached.

Could anyone please assist with the part number and if possible where to buy from?

Kind regards

While checking the engine I noticed a plastic part hanging loose (see attached pdf file with photos).
Where does this part fit?

Good evening, I'm wondering if anyone who has done this can replace an NG4 with a SMEG IV2 on a 2010 C5 (don't reply, you're in the wrong place, I can't find any information). If so, what procedures do I need to follow? Is it a plug-and-play job, or do I need to modify/integrate the original electrical system? Best regards, Raffaello.

Is the subframe joint on my citroen c5 2009 x7 mark111 meant to be even or its not a problem.

Hi guys, having problems closing one of my sliding doors. It's very sticky on the runners and rear of door doesn't want to engage( you have to push the rear hard to engage). Tried blowing everything out and lubing but think its past that. Any tips for what to replace/ check?

Hi all,

Hoping someone may be able to point me in the right direction.
My C5 X7, 2.0 138 is running a bit loud and rough at idle, same in reverse and first, once it goes into higher revs it actually quietens down a lot, it’s very quiet at motorway revs.
Seems to also have basically no power in reverse and first. Kind of odd, thought it might...

Hi
Have substantial fluid leak just above fuel tank towards the offside rear.

Can anyone tell me which pipe is most likely the culprit ??

Hello all,

I never know why all the issues I have with the C5 2.2 Exclusive Auto, all turn to mysteries - maybe its just me?

Been for a long trip today and on the return journey ping Engine Fault - Repair Needed - ohh Great!

We limped home with an engine warning light and also a shuddering engine that felt like one cylinder wasn't working.

A...

Hi guys, any advise on how to handle this.? My warning lights turned on indicating “Particle filter is at risk of clogging) Doing short trips most of the time like 12-15mins drive going to work.. car mileage is around 118miles now… thanks!

I have a 2009 C5 VTR+ with 2.0 HDI engine 136.
The high pressure (larger diameter) Aircon pipe which runs under the inner wing has pulled apart at what looks like a flanged union with 3 O rings. Can't see what holds this union together although a 2020 post on the same subject mentions a clip?

Hi

I changed the fuel filter on my 1,6hdi. But when trying to prime it with the priming bulb it starts leaking like crazy. Diesel is pouring out under the car. Pretty much impossible to see where it leaks but atleast not from the 3 top connections. Removed everything 2 times to check if the seal is not in the correct position, checked the torx...

hi i have a big request i bought a c5x7 2.0hdi automatic. now i was doing a service and i came across a problem.. what could they do that the coolant is the color of coffee with milk. it doesn't pressurize, the oil in the engine is ok. so now i'm wondering what could cause it.. the car has 290 thousand km.. thanks for any advice

Hi all, please bear with me as I’m not very mechanically minded.
I have a 2013 Citroën DS3 1.6 HDi which originally had a fault with the electric power steering. A family member (not a mechanic by trade, but experienced with working on cars) replaced the steering rack with a used unit.
Since fitting the replacement rack, the steering itself is...

Having now delved into this further, I realise that the retrofit is at best an onerous task and at worst impossible! The seats came with the under seat ECU plus connectors and a cut off portion of about 6 inches of the original wiring to the rest of the car. I also bought the door harnesses, door memory ECU and memory button door switch from the...

Hi All

Can anyone tell me what the interval is for a timing belt and water pump on a 2019 Citroen relay with the 2.0 blue hdi 110 engine

Started with P0193, P1162 and more recently P0069, P0113 and now P0237. EGR valve and Fuel PX and MAP sensor replaced however P0237 persistent. It's...

I would be very happy if someone would give me the original part number for clutch and starter for Berlingo 1.6 16 v gasoline 2006

Clutch is too hard and plastic clip on pedal keeps breaking. Cable is new and clutch is only 2 years old. It is a Mecarm MK9613 that i fitted 2 years ago. I think it should bo ok. But i would like...

Hi Lads I ran a diagnostic on the car because she smells fuelly, yes it's the C5 that has all the problems but I bought it thinking it had an injector problem. Can anyone tell me what the us stands for. To me none of the injectors look right numbers wise but I am hopeful if being corrected. No fault codes apart from the glow plug fault but we know...

Hi!

TLDR:
Electrical circuit fault: have your vehicle repaired error message keeps popping up in my Citroen C4 Grand picasso from 2014
Whenever the error message is present when I turn off the ignition, the voltage keeps dropping over time
I bought a new AGM battery but that did not help with anything
I measured the voltage when driving...

My front power windows have a MYSTERIOUS problem of not working ..... usually after driving for 10 minutes .
The front windows operate normally at start-up .
Then after a few minutes the front power windows do not work : if I turn the ignition off and then right back on, the front windows will operate normally again !

THE REAR power windows...

hi recently i did a gearbox swap on my C2 from Sensodrive to manual, But of Course the car wont start - can gearbox be changed in lexia, or i need a whole ECU remap?

Hi,

It seems my low speed fan on my Citroen C3 1.6 120 VTI 2012 doesn't come on, as I read the OBD coolant temp at around 97c, I even got to 102c (I think the high speed is working, but haven't seen it in action,
just that I never overheat, and the temp drops at around 105c in the OBD sensor reading).

To test the fan, I removed...

Hello,

New C5 X7 owner here.

Is there a way to make the AM6 gearbox remember the sport mode after engine shutdown (like the suspension does)? I looked a bit in Lexia but couldn't find any option for that.

Bonus question:
Would it be posssbile to reverse the manual operation mode: pull back for gear up, push forward for gear down?
For sure this...

Hi everyone,

Maybe this is an already discussed topic, but I couldn't manage to find an issue similar to mine.

So I have a 2014 Citroen C5 2.2hdi and I bought it with 198.000km on it. Seemed the previous owner in Switzerland did not change the gearbox oil. The car had an issue jolting forward sometimes when selecting Drive. Also when cold, it...

So my Xantia's front struts seem to be failing, as the front lowers through the night and there's much returning LHM. Do I have to change it, or is there a way to repair it? And if it can be repaired, I suppose there's a kit, can someone hit me with part numbers for it?

Hi all, I found the rear tyres on the c5 have excess wear on the inner shoulder as though the toe is excessive. These are 3 year old tyres and have done about 19k miles.

Checked just now with the track ace and the rear shows as being 30 degree minutes toe out at the rear. It's a bit toe out but I wouldn't have thought that was very excessive (?)...

Hello! I have an Issue with interior fan and central locking from flip key. When I lock the car with the key it is working, but with the remote control NO. The issue with the fan is that when I press the brake the speed of the fan go up. I checked the minus point near right rear light. When I switch of the brake switch, the issue is gone. I know...

Picked up an advisory at the last MOT concerning the bushes in the rear subframe of an 09 C1, which I believe relates to the big bushes used to secure the subframe to the bodywork. The fixing bolts are visible in the front bottom corner of the rear wheel arches, left and right. Does anybody know the extent to which the rear subframe has to be...

Having noticed that the pre-heat coil light does not illuminate when our C1 1.4HDI is started and having found fault code P1351, I have assumed that the glow plug relay has failed and I have ordered a Hella replacement. The OE Cartier does not appear to be available new now, sadly.

I located the original relay on the engine bulkhead, behind the...

Hello. I have a 2014 Citroen C4 Picasso 1.6 115 diesel semi-automatic piloted with 6 gears (robotized manual). I encountered faults indicating that the gearbox and clutch learning procedures were incomplete, along with a P0573 code. During the learning process, I couldn't engage automatic mode; only manual was functional. After disconnecting and...

In my quest to fix the 5V sensor rail I have removed the thermostat from the side of the engine. Mostly it was pretty painless, but getting the thermostat-waterpump pipe out of the back of the thermostat was challenging. Just wiggle it off says the handy youtube video. It did come off, but required excessive force and a couple of crowbars, mainly...

Hi everyone,

I'm seeking some advice regarding a persistent oil leak on my 2008 Citroen C5 1.6 HDi. I can see oil pooling around the injectors at the top of the engine, which then seems to drain in two directions:
-Towards the back of the engine bay (firewall side).
-Towards the auxiliary belt side, running down behind the belt area in the hollow...

Hi guys, I have a C4 1.6 Hdi 2009 with dual zone digital climatization. I have one problem, i can get hot air in those 2 vents located in rear part of T pilar. I have been testing it, the knobs to make more or less wind do not make any difference, even when i mess with dual zone commands in the display as well allowing or not access from passenger...

I also noticed 2 months back steering wheel shaking when i am turning at very low speeds but now that stopped, but...

If i don't drive my citroen for a couple of days the battery will get flat ,after doing some fault finding I found out that the lights where the electric windows switches are remain on, even if the car is not used .I think the fault is from the BSI card. I'm thinking of buying a second hand one .My question is my car is RHD if I buy the card...
