First post

Given the number of 'After-sales campaign' notices concerning Takarta Airbags I have been made aware of when looking up parts from PSA for members, I thought I would post a link to the following documentary that may be informative concerning the issue with these igniters.

According to Takata, the chemicals in the airbags’ explosive charge can...

My DS5, VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] should be eligible for recall, but my vehicle is in China and I cannot find the corresponding service provider. Could you please contact me officially and tell me how to handle this? ????_20251024002629_33_148.png

Parts Service Announcement - 21st March 2025

Please note that there is a temporary disruption to our 'Parts Service', so we will be unable to provide any official parts for members at the present time. Please refer to the Post HERE for further info

Last post

Disruption to Parts Service

As you may be aware, the consolidation of the old PSA to the Stellantis Group systems has resulted in both a merge of data tools and a requirement to migrate PSA accounts to Stellantis Systems.

This has caused some problems for organisations like ours and the Team are currently looking at the best way forward. This...

I don't have knowledge of the Peugeot, but the issue of a loose connection is known with several makes of car.
I doubt the piece of plastic holding the cable to the floor will cause an issue with the air bag light, but an intermittent loose connection in the plug and socket almost certainly will. Check for a good electrical connection within. Look...

DS3 crossback sat nav update

by DS3XBCk » 28 Jan 2023, 19:12

First post

Hi,
I own a DS3 crossback 69plate and the sat nav needs updating. The DS garage quoted me £144 to update it!!
Is it easy to do myself?
Thanks 😊

Last post

Well of course they will charge you to do this if you really want to pay a technician to load a USB and sit in your car for 40 minutes drinking coffee.

Use the DS App. It will tell you if the firmware or maps need updating.

For Nac Wave 3, you must use a firmware version downloaded after 12/23/2022.

Ok, so you had the '5' written down as an 'S', which is why it was incorrect. :-D

Your vehicle was actually built on 24th August 2017 and the warranty commenced from 31st May 2018, so is a late registered 2017 model. Therefore the Telematics system you have installed is the older SMEG Touchscreen and not the later Connected NAC unit.

Sat nav not working

My wife has a 2019 Citroen C3. The Android Auto sat nav has stopped working. The Samsung phone says ‘Can’t connect to car screen’ and the car screen says ‘Navigation System Absent’. I’ve switched the phone on and off and also changed the cable but it made no difference. Any ideas what could be wrong please?

DS5 No Sound from Audio - Sometimes!

Hi,

I have a 2016 DS5 (LHD - I Live in Spain). Vin: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

I was contemplating doing a BSI...

That's plausible as the later DS-badged versions often require the specific parts and diagnostics for those specific models. Each marque has a hefty annual subs cost, so I can understand the Citroen Franchised dealer not wanting to incur additional costs for the DS marque.

Citroen dealerships will support the earlier Citroen-badged models though,...

No worries and thanks for the update.

I suspect they have connected to their servers and if it was a very early Wave 1 or 2 system, may have had to of been activated. All these services are enabled by default now, but I'm glad I'm glad you have it sorted and can start using it to its potential. :-D

Hi, please can someone give me some advise on the sat nav. It's a c4 grand picasso on a 2017 reg.

Citroen are right in one respect in that they do not repair them. They will only supply a new one. They are easy enough to fit depending on the vehicle as the touchscreen panel needs removing to replace the unit that just screws in, but it will need configuring via the internet to set up your factory-fitted options and to code it to the vehicle,...

There is a new map that is available for the Wave 2 NAC for Europe (version 21) - but not officially released by PSA yet, so won't be available via the My Citroen App or the PC App as yet. This often happens whilst they are testing new releases and it can be a month or so later before they do release it publicly via their distribution network.
