Hi,
I have a 2009 C5 2.0 hdi 136hp. I want to diagnose it. Is this set good for it?

If I've translated that correctly it's not a Lexia it's just the connection cables.

Apologies, the others are quite correct, hat kit is just the leads set only and of the hardware.

As far as recommending a supplier, personally and many other members have bought from easydiagnostics uk. Just google them. They will give members of the Forum a discount and I believe they ship internationally too.

The last two forum members to purchase off them didn't get a discount. I think maybe we should stop saying this for the time being.

I didn't either, but the kit is very good and the after sales excellent They do ship abroad.

Right, we'll thanks for letting us know that. I will have to look at the last post concerning this with a view to removing it if this is the case.

They did promise a discount but it never materialised :(
Still worth using for the quality of the kit and after-sales service.

Easydiagnostics did offer me a 10% discount in November 2016, but (as I am not in the UK) I ended up buying one of these: https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/849 ... 0001561755 which arrived in a couple of weeks, and seems to be full spec (it talks happily to our Peugeot 308 CC)

I have found a used one here in Hungary. According to the seller the version is "diagbox 7.65". Is this okay for my car?

Have you use it ever for C5 (x7)? Just because I have red in some similar ad, that working with all Citroen and Pug, but not with new C5. I do not know what is the reason. Maybe depend on the version?
