120k service approaching

Post by osx »

Getting close to 120,000 miles after a quite busy year. Best car choice for motorway miles - not sure if it is the seats or the lack of noise but I have driven for 4 hours without stop and wouldn't mind going on for few more.

So for 120k service is there anything else you would recommend I check/replace besides the cambelt/water pump and obviously the regulars (oil, filters etc)? Gear box oil maybe?

Definitely gear box oil, I did mine very recently, and the difference can be felt in the gear shifts (probably meaning the gearbox is that much happier with fresh fluid) that are much smoother

I presume you have an auto gearbox?

Is there a 120k list of other things that need to be checked/replaced as I can get a discount only if I order the parts by the end of this week.

AM6 gearbox, yes. If you're doing the service at your Citroen Service, they ought to be able to give you a full list of repairs that are due at 120k ...

EDIT: I don't know if it will help you, but here's the maintenance intervals overview of what should be done and when on the C5: http://www.filedropper.com/c5maintenance" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

No cambelt it seems for another 40k miles or 4 years whichever comes first.
