Seems like the battery might be on the way out. The C5 (and other C series Citroens) are very sensitive electronically, and if the battery begins to fail it can cause all sorts of weird random glitches. Get the battery checked (and, if need be and finances permit, replaced), and then go through the BSi reset routine;

As an aside, on a Picasso Xsara, where is the Bsi located?, If a new one is purchased it needs programming from scratch, I presume? and will have zero miles on it?

thanks Bob
