Citroen C5 steering rack
Hello !! I have 2010 C5 X7 1.6 diesel with coil spring suspension. My steering rack was leaking fluid, and I bought second hand rack from Peugeot 407. I could not find C5 rack, and my mechanic was able to make it fit. However now my steering is very heavy, and when turning left or right there is a juddering from front wheels. It feels like tracking is very bad, but I had it done perfectly so I know it's not that. Any ideas what the problem is ?? One friend says maybe my power steering pump is not powerful enough for 407 rack ?? Any help will be most grateful. Maybe I just need to get C5 rack and start all over again ??

Re: Citroen C5 steering rack
They are not the same racks for a start so expect issues.... they are not interchangeable and also the travel distance may be different.

Re: Citroen C5 steering rack
Be aware some have 180 and some 184 degrees travel. Make sure you match the correct part number.
We can help with official part numbers if you need them, but require a £10 Forum donation, as PSA charge for official parts info now - but this will cover you for up to 2 years for parts enquiries / parts diagrams.
If this is something that you think you will benefit from, details are in the table below, then just pop your VIN up.

Re: Citroen C5 steering rack
Those links do not show current information and there is a high risk they do not have the latest data - 2 obvious examples - there are no C3 or C5 Aircross models even listed!....
Staff will only use official PSA parts access , as not only is the parts database live, but we get other details and characteristics about the vehicle, included fitted options, whether there are any After Sales campaigns outstanding, official current pricing, etc etc. this ensures we can provide the latest accurate official parts data as a service to our donating members and also helps keep the Forum running.
