If you don't have your DS owner's manual, you can view most of them online or in most cases download a copy as a PDF, or in some cases just the relevant section required.

Not all early models are included.

Just follow the link, select your preferred language from the top right corner
Then select the model
Now select the car image and finally...

That's a great link to be aware of, so thanks Marc!

Thought I'd mention there's also the iOS and Android Scan MyDS app available that provides basic information for key functions.

Hello,

In that case, unlikely to be heat-related, so probably a bug in the software causing it to restart. Contact the dealer and enquire as to whether there is a firmware update - tell them it has been restarting on relatively short distances.

It may take some time for feedback to come in globally from customers; the research from the collation of...

Ds5 thp 1.6 performance line - what tools?

by David19 » 17 Aug 2019, 17:44

First post

Just brought a pre reg 2018 DS5, it came with the pump no spare wheel, does anyone know if this car should have come with a Jack etc, as the only thing it came with is the pump and the screw in towing eye bolt, the moulding has the spaces for Jack etc.

Last post

It should also have the ‘bomb’, a can of tyre gunk that’s used with the pump to inflate a flat tyre. No jack on models without a spare.

There was a revised part number, and later cars do seem to be better, suggests they sorted it out. Reportedly best to use OE injectors or they can be difficult to program.

I have Android 7.1.1 and this won't be updated by Motorola apparently. However, the ConnectedCAM app only requires Android 5.0 and above, so it should work. If a higher level than 7.1.1 is necessary, then it would mean a new phone #-o .

Spare wheel carrier ds5 thp 2018

by David19 » 03 Aug 2019, 10:03

First post

Any one managed to fit a spare wheel under the boot? I see it has loads of space wondered if the old DS5s had them? Space saver or otherwise or has anyone managed to get a full size alloy as a spare?

Last post

It depends on the variant as to which ones had a spare wheel. The ones that did had a spare wheel carrier mechanism that when operated, released the spare wheel from the housing.

The Hybrid models certainly didn’t have a spare wheel carrier, nor did some other models, instead having the boot storage box fitted and the tyre repair kit.

I am considering the DS7 for my next car. I’ve notices some have chrome fake exhaust trim and some have black plastic.

If so is it possible to spec the diesel with chrome as it’s a diesel...

Thanks for the quick reply. From what I can gather while speccing a car is the two smaller engines have black plastic while the two larger have chrome. Regardless of which trim level is selected. Which is a shame as I wanted Prestige but also wanted the smaller 1.5 Diesel engine.

DS4 What exhaust is this?

by Hexagon » 07 Jan 2019, 16:55

First post

So I've just bought this DS4 and it seems to have a rather odd exhaust pipe... Is this some sort of upgrade? I've looked online at others for sale and can't find any with a visible exhaust pipe.

The car is a 1.6 HDI 110.

Thanks for any help

Ok, sorry.
Was not lol-ing AT you. Rather thought I was WITH you, but hey-ho.
Pretty sure the standard exhaust should be hidden behind the bumper, with a down turn at the end to deflect gasses downwards, away from the plastic. If I'm right, the exhaust you currently have is hanging BELOW the bumper and is therefore significantly lower than it...

Hi Guys,

After fixing my last issue :-D , which was my last topic raised (Start/Stop Issue Advise needed, Belt Tension?) Which involved replacing both aux belt tensioners and belt. I believe that now the belt has the correct tension the A/C compressor bearing is having a heart attack :shock: . Hard to describe, like a rhythmic metal scraping...

That's feasible, Simon. I've got a gauge here if you want to pop round sometime and we can stick it on and see what it says.

DS3 Blowing only on number 5

Hi guys,

First question - and excuse my ignorance, isn't a DS classed as a Citroen? I just notice there is a Citroen section and a DS Automobiles section - is this because although its a Citroen they are quite different?

And my main question :)

Im trying to find the location of the heater resistor in a 2015 DS3. I took the glove box out and had...

Hi, I had to replace the part. Given it was only £20 (off the internet) but Citroen wanted to charge £80... I wasn't too bothered.

Apparently they are known to go (as resistors do) and I could have probably re-soldered a replacement resistor for less than £2 but as said it as a cheap fix anyway.

DS5 AdBlue light

by ZigaKus » 10 Nov 2018, 19:05

First post

Dear all,

today on my Citroen DS5 2014, 2.0 Hdi 133Kw, turn on the light for AdBlue. I buy 15l of AdBlue on gas station and fill up the tank for AdBlue, but the light don t turn off and it says that in 1.100km the engine won t start again.

Did anyone have this kind of problem on his vehicle?

Thank you for all your answers.

I didn't but others have. My Adblue warning on the 308 disappeared immediately after refilling but others have found that they need to drive the car a few times for it to register.

DS4 Parking sensors

by stevd » 06 Oct 2018, 19:24

First post

Hi everyone, this is my first post here. Currently own a C5 2.0 hdi and a ds4 2.0hdi

Recently purchased the DS4 2.0 hdi dsport 2012.

Unfortunately, the parking sensors - front and rear - are not working. No errors show on the dash as I would have expected and the switch for the parking sensors doesnt do anything - ie the light doesnt come on...

Thanks for the welcome :)
