C5 question about front wheels

Post by viorelovidiu »

Hi citroen mads!

I`ve encountered a strange behaviour which made me worry.

When I steer maximum to right or left and car start moving I can feel that the wheels are not syncronized like there is a play somewhere in front. also, it`s a bit unstable in curves...

What can induce this phenomena?

Thanks!

Worn track rod ends? Not uncommon on the C5, I believe.
Otherwise, one or more rubber bush on the suspension arms might have perished.

i will try to replace all bushes next week, i`ve heard this is an common failure over 100,000 kilometers on board.

I have only 50,000kilometers...
