Citroen C6 - Doctor needed

Unread post by Davidjetjockey »

Hi All.

My 2.7diesel C6 has been unused for about 5 years since I encountered a problem.

I was stupid enough to lend it to a (trusted) employee and the car returned with issues.

A garage claiming to know what they were doing - didn’t !

It may (probably does) need a new radiator and it may have a failed head gasket.

I need a proper Citroen C6 specialist to help diagnose and fix.

The car is in Hertfordshire AL6 (Welwyn) but I doubt I would want to pay Hertfordshire rates.

I am in SA10 (Swansea) and getting the car here is no issue.

Can anyone recommend someone who is competent and will do a proper job?

BL Autos are in Hertfordshire. Chevronics? I doubt either will be cheap, nor will any C6 repairs, but if you want it fixed....

Yes indeed. BL Autos give me great confidence when repairing my C6.

Another firm recommendation for BL Auto's here - and they also happen to be in Welwyn Garden City (AL7 4ST to be precise).
Just give it to those guys.

You might also try Kitch at SOUTHWAYS AUTOMOTIVE (Fareham) https://www.southwaysautomotive.co.uk . He is a C6 owner and has put some of his C6 adventures on his youtube channel.

Thank you for all the replies.

I was hoping for something a little closer to home but I guess it will have to be BL Autos😬

Thanks again for the recommend.

You could try Citropro just south of Bristol.
Feedback I've heard is that Arnaud is a wizz on C6's.
