Hi
I am trying to check the hydraulic fluid on my C5, 2.0 petrol estate 2003 vintage. Unlike my previous Citroens, xm and Xantia I see no level marks. So how can I check please?

No mention of it in the manual, if its somewhere near the top it should be OK.

In the filler there should be a very coarse 'strainer' with two sets of cut outs.
Put the suspension on it's lowest setting and wait a minute.
the level should be at the top of the shortest set of cut outs for an Hydractive 3, at the top for an Hydractive 3+.
Fill with LDS to the correct level then raise the car to normal ride height, then refit the cap.
