Hello, could someone write what software versions are in the Citroen C5X and possibly what the updates brought?

Hello, I have looked for about 3 days for a way to identify my multimedia system or software system so that I can find an update/ map update. The car is a Citroen C5 Tourer from late 2015 to 2016. I know there are like 6 systems but I don't know mine, and my screen is the Touchscreen 7 with MirrorScreen based on the information I saw on citroen...

I'm in the process of replacing the RNEG on a 2009 C5 X7 saloon with an aftermarket unit with a DAB+ receiver.

If at all possible, I'd like to avoid replacing the main aerial base (looks like a difficult job to do without damaging the roof liner) and those windscreen DAB antennas also produce mixed results.

Since my RNEG has dual tuner, if I...

Hello,
I've bought recently (yesterday actually) a 2017 Citroen Grand Picasso 2. Since I know a little about the car for the time being I started with the infotainment.
I've read the topic a bit so I know that there are some issues with certs, I haven't tried to update the Head Unit (or whatever it is called in PSA nomenclature), but I would...

Hello everyone!
This is my first post and I hope my question won't be trivial ;)

I have a C5 X7 V6 HDi (2012).

I need information about the CAN bus (or other).
What CAN speeds are in the car? I know from experience that 500kbps has IDs such as the mechanical parameters of the car.
Are there other CAN bus speeds? I care about multimedia buttons,...

Hi all

I’ve just purchased a 2020 Citroen Relay which I’ll be converting into a camper. I’m looking at options for updating the radio so I can use CarPlay, and so far see the common approach is to install a Chinese or branded double din unit.

However, is it possible to instead retrofit the updated OEM unit from the 2023 model which includes...

Hello All,

Hi. I have a 2014 plate Citroen C5 II TOURER (X7), which I bought last year. The SOS light was flashing in the head unit which I could ignore. I swapped it out for an NG4 head unit. I still see the SOS light flashing but now there is also a loud beeping noise that starts a couple of minutes after the engine has been started.
- Where is the...

Hello, im new to this forum and would like to start off with my first post about a dreadful problem with my brand new Peugeot.

Id like to know if someone else had this particular issue, or if its more widely known issue..

Brand new from factory. After a week and...

I plan to buy a carplay module for my 308, SMEG system
I learned online that EBILAEN module, but they have two, one gray and one black
Has anyone bought it? How effective is it? Which one do you recommend?
Thanks in advance?

Hi I've got a dab radio but the dab function doesn't work I can see the option button but cannot select the button? I've been told I need a firmware update to get it sorted but at a cost of £150 can any one supply or show me where I can download the update? I've added a photo of radio model below

Hello,

I installed a Chinese Android audio system instead of my RT6.2, and it worked well. However, there was one issue—when I park my car, the rear camera doesn’t display an image on the screen.

This audio system comes with a CAN bus module, allowing me to change many settings. I decided to try different settings to enable the camera. At some...

Hi all…

Just picked up my 10/01/2016 5008, love it although my only negative is the SATNAV and interaction with my iPhone.

I have read that changing to an aftermarket system you may loose functionality, parking sensors for one.

Has anyone replaced a RD45 with a pioneer double din and has everything working? Sensors, Rear Camera, Bluetooth...

There's no physical jukebox Matt, it's a feature of some Head Units ... It's not available on the SMEG units as they don't use HDD,s only flash memory and space is likely limited. The SMEG+ unit on our Peugeot 308 most definitely does have a jukebox. It's not something I ever used and I changed the partitioning on the SD card so that so that some...

I am hoping to upgrade the Rneg2 system in the 2015 Citroen Ds5 to a Nac system which was fitted to Ds badged Ds5's. I think this question has been asked multiple times before however I would appreciate it if a knowledgeable person went over it with me again and gave me their advice directly.

Hi I recently bought a 2013 Citroen C3 II. I bought a radio with a beam from the board and I have a central speaker with a subwoofer. Does anyone have a wiring diagram of the HIFI system in a Citroen C3 II? I know for sure that there is a lack of some power supply on this extra strip because I only have one fuse.

Has anyone on here any experience of retrofitting a SMEG+ IV2?

I'm looking at Android Auto options, so just trying to see exactly what work is needed to install a SMEG+IV2 to a car originally delivered with an RNEG unit. I know it's going to be pricey, but before I start hunting for parts I'm trying to get a feel for what is possible and whether...

I have a question. i am looking in to buying a aux port adapter or an Bluetooth adapter, i need to know what type of adapter do i need to get. i have seen rd3 or rd4 thown around and i have no idea what does it mean. also what are the steps on putting this thing in and activating it. all the info is welcome.

Hi all,

Does any of you know the speaker cable diameter in C5 X7? I want to grab the signal from behind the radio to the amplifier and put back into the original wiring. In this setup buying thicker wire than original make no sense - that's why I'm asking :)

Thanks!

Hi,

I’ve got a very original ‘95 306 S16 with the original Blaupunkt 3040 radio cassette unit fitted.

I’d like to fit a CD changer into the boot and have purchased a Blaupunkt A05 changer with lead. However, I can’t see how to connect the lead to the head unit.

From research it seems the changer is plugged in via the steering control port ....

Hi Guys,

Thank you for the nice forum that you have created. I have a few questions for my Berlingo. My multimedia is SMEG + with version 6.3.D.R6.

Hey,

I've tried to update the software of my DS3 from 2016, to a newer version. The current version is SMEG6.1.D.R19.

It can't be updated through the MyDS app. The VIN number is: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

Hi,

Another question I wanted to ask.

My Jumpy II (2014) 2.0HDI has a classic radio (no display, just radio/CD) - 1 Inch
I've removed the radio and noticed on the quad-lock connector that only 5 pins are in use (not taking into account the speaker side).

On examination I assume the following
* 12V (always on)
* 12V (acc position)
* GND
* Can...

Hello,

I am new to Citroen. I just got a Citroen Jumpy 2011 2 Generation before the facelift. The car is currently not in me, so I can't see what is the navigation system version / type.

Hi all,
Clutching at straws here and hoping someone can help as I feel clueless!

I recently purchased a 2016 Citroen C4 Grand Picasso to replace my 2014 version of the same car that my partner so lovingly wrote off reversing it into a pole.

However this car doesn’t seem to have working DAB and the FM will only tune into a couple of stations...

Hi All,

I have just purchased a Citroen C4 Picasso and want to update the system.

I would appreciate any help or advice on how I can do this.

I'm looking to add Bluetooth for hands-free use and DAB radio to my 2002 C5 MK1. I'd appreciate confirmation or correction on my understanding of the available options.

I believe my C5 has an RD2/RD3 radio, which doesn't have an AUX output. Therefore, if I opt for a dashboard-mounted DAB adapter, I would need...

Hi
I have a 17 plate Berlingo, it seems to have 2 issues with the head unit.

1 the DAB signal is poor, in my home town DAB radio works no problem, but if I drive 7 miles north or 7 miles south the DAB radio has issues and the sound comes and goes sometimes it could be silent for a couple of minutes.

2 when I have my iphone connected by USB and...

Hi,

Sorry, really mundane question here.
Original radio/CD in 2001 Xsara Picasso.

Have lost most stations and just hear static or very poor reception. Radio 3 and 4 work just about but very crackly.

Aerial looks intact.

Is it likely to be the radio itself has finally bitten the dust? Or something else? How can I diagnose it?

Many thanks 👍
