Post by scottspark »

Hi got a warning of particular filter additive level low. I've been reading how to diy it but can't see any posts for a c5 2008 on.
Any tips. Thanks

If you can post
Engine and model and year will help get you accurate method and fluid type for your type of car, you also need a Lexia to "reset" the counter

FYI....doing it yourself will "pay" for a Lexia :)

Yours could also be the BAG system, much easier.....others will be able to tell you based on VIN numbers (you will be asked for it :) )

There's two virtually identical procedures for the 2.2hdi - they both amount to the same thing, it's just that one version has slightly more to say on the way !
