2003 C5 - 4 or 2 Wheel Alignment?

Post by LEEHUMP1 »

I own a 2003 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi estate. I am thinking of having my wheels aligned as the steering wheel is off centre and when aligned they will correct it for me.

Does the C5 need 2 or 4 wheel alignment? My old Mondeo needed 4 but I understand older French cars have a fixed rear axle and only require 2 wheel alignment. Any help....

Regards, Lee.

You can get a four wheel alignment done on any car that has 4 wheels, on the C5 yes it's not adjustable but there are specs for the rear geometry so it can still be measured, if the spec is out then it can point to problems like worn bushes or bearings.
