Citroen DS5 2012 front suspension parts

Unread post by segswc »

Hello everyone,

I'm planning to completely refurbish the front suspension on my Citroën DS5 to make it feel smooth and silent again :)
, but I'm having some difficulty identifying the correct parts.

My goal is to replace:

All suspension rubber bushings/silent blocks
Ball joints (where applicable)
Wheel hub/bearing components if needed
Shock absorbers and related mounting hardware

The problem is that I keep finding multiple versions of the same parts with different diameters, mounting styles, and specifications depending on the supplier. I don't want to order the wrong components.

Would anyone be able to share the OEM parts catalogue (Service Box) diagrams or exploded schematics for the complete front axle/front suspension and front wheel hub assembly? Even screenshots would be extremely helpful.

Vehicle details:

Citroën DS5
Type: K / KFRHH / KFRHHA
Engine: RHH (2.0 HDi)
VIN: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]

If someone could also provide the original PSA part numbers for the suspension components, I would really appreciate it.

Thank you very much for your help!

Unfortunately the forum no longer has access to the VIN database following a Stellantis policy change, Hence in order to find anything you need to confirm the year, body style, transmission and ideally the RPO number, usually found on the tyre sticker on the door frame, for us to be able to find any information. :)
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

the tire pressure sticker)
I think the transmission is the 6-speed automatic (Aisin AM6 / AT6)
