Citroen C5 2008 2.0 HDI Exclusiv - but is it Mk 2 or X7 !!!!
Gents, I have now bought an immaculate C5 but know little about it. I have been reading forums and don't know how to tell which Mk or exact model it is. Please help. Thanks in advance. I will post again because it has a few electrical issues I believe.

Hi and welcome to the Forum.
The first thing you need to do is post up your VIN, then I can provide you with the exact spec as it left the factory. Your VIN can be found on the outside of the windscreen, at the bottom of the passenger side - there is a little window that shows the code - it is an alphanumeric sequence of 17.

Gents I believe it may be a Mk 2 looking at the pics thanks, but as it is my first C5 I am unfamiliar with Citroen

two TOP tips for a new owner..........
ALWAYS remove the LDS cap when you have the car lifted off its wheels.................
Get a garage 9(or DIY) to apply loads of waterproof thick grease to the steering rack Pinion valve stem/shaft)
