Start/Stop Issue Advise needed, Belt Tension?

by lesliepg » 12 Dec 2018, 09:54

First post

Hi Guys,

I have an issue with my 2012 1.6 e-hdi DS5. My car has Start/Stop system, when I come to a stop the engine stops and goes into ECO mode (Green ECO Light on) when I lift the brake I hear a squeal then the engine doesn't restart. I have to put the car back into netural and press the engine start button to get the engine started again. I...

UPDATE
I have installed 2 new belt tensioners and belt. And... I may have found the cause of my issues! :shock:

tensioner.jpg

As you can see from the photo it looks as if the secondary sprung roller has blown up at some point, This would explain the lack of full tension on the belt thus making the upper tensioner bounce and lose purchase on...

DS3 Blowing only on number 5

by Shabbaranks » 30 Nov 2018, 12:59

First post

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...

Last post

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.

OBD not working

by Badboybriands5 » 04 Dec 2018, 23:16

I am looking for a fuse for the OBD socket as I have no power at the OBD. It was working fine a few months ago, but I recently had to plug in diagnostics and found I have no power. I have a DS5 2014. Can anyone help with the location of the correct fuse so I can check it, or has anyone else had the same problem.Thanks.

DS5 suspension

by qprdude » 08 Oct 2018, 22:05

First post

I've almost come to terms with DS5 ownership after 16 months. I tried a 2.2 l Jaguar XF at the weekend and was completely underwhelmed.
It felt dated and sluggish, even though it was the 190bhp version rather than the 163.?
It was fairly nice and reasonably specced, but it didn't fold its'self around me and whisper buy me now !
OK, the reason I...

Last post

OK, so I contacted a local French car specialist who I have had decent service from before. I asked about the suspension problem on the Citroen DS5. He said he hadn't yet worked on a customers DS5 for anything but was willing to find out for me.
He took all the details of the car and said he would make enquires as to whether the newer upgraded...

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.

Last post

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.

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.

New DS forum - proud owner of DS7 Crossback here

by Marve » 02 Sep 2018, 10:29

First post

Hello all,

Good to finally see a DS forum. I couldn´t find it anywhere else.

I have a DS7 crossback since April 2018 and I am very happy about it. It drives great and especially the lights and the inside interior is more than excellent.

I would like to exchange experiences with other users.

Till soon.

Last post

I am very happy with the car after the 5 months I have it now.
You get a very exclusive cars in that, at least around Barcelona, you don`t see any. It feels pretty cool that everybody knows it is you when they see your car, as there is no other DS7 driving around. Off course it also means it is not the best value car around, otherwise more people...

I have read that on the C4 there is...

Last post

Number is the heating resistance - I explained in my previous post - it is basically just heating elements to provide some warmth for the cabin until the engine warms up. It has nothing to do with the blower motor itself.

Where did you get the Blower Control Module from? Some cheap ones off the bay are notoriously poor quality and dead on arrival...
