Hello to the round, I wanted to inform myself what can be done with a C4 Grand Picasso 1.6 HDi, which only causes problems. The good piece has now just 13.000km on it and is 8 months old. Can you help me???? List of problems: 1. Quitting the brakes when driving backwards after 3.000km 2. Noise (cracking) of the right front axle when driving curbs (5.000km) 3. Whistling of the blower of the air conditioning (change of the fan) after 9,000km 4. Whistling occurred again after 10.500km. Was again one and upgraded 5. Quitting the brakes when driving back at the time 6. Whisting in the area of the engine room. Could not be determined by the dealer yet?!! Can you help me? Greeting Sven Sven

Hello, I’ve been driving a C4 coupé for a year now and have always had problems with the cold engine, i.e. after a long service life. Problems mean that the whole car is unsteady “waxing” in idle mode and the engine “rupts” or stutters when driving under 3000 tours and when I then give gas, it takes a very long time no gas. I kick into the void. Only after a few seconds stutters the car accelerates and when I have turned over 3000 tours everything fits. It’s just very annoying, if you want to drive out of the parking gap, but the car does not accelerate I have been in the factory saddle many times and he finds no mistake, since my vehicle computer has not documented any errors (allegedly). He just always thinks that this is a problem that occurs more strongly with the C3 and I can only wait for a new software from Citroen. Do you have any problems like this, or does the mechanic mislead me? LG Michael Michael

So, I bought this great car today as an exclusive equipment, of course after mature consideration and a test drive. Daily registration and gave my C-crosser in payment. In the last 5 years I have already driven two Picasso, the children’s diseases have been fixed. Since we drive in Corsica for several months in the year, we have to carry a lot more besides our dog. Honestly, I don’t want to drive an all-world car that populates our roads. , this Auito is an eye-catcher, these extras I would like to see for the same price at other cars of this class. Who gets angry about the many functions, the actions can be limited, some intelligence should already be present, but practice also makes the master. A+ and an average consumption of 5 liters calm my conscience and the wallet already noticeable. After the Corsican trip I will tell you what was ok or not, definitely my We remain faithful to France (Corsica belongs to France), even if it is only partially built there, but who knows that, doesn’t bother me either, main thing the essential parts work. Until then and drive carefully. Sede

Hello (new) C4 co-owner, I have a new C4 Grand Picasso with circuit. Unfortunately, the clutch pedal creaks and scrapes after a certain driving time. These sounds seem to come from the plastic cylinders on the clutch pedal. The car has 5000km down to now. I tried to solve the problem through a Citroenwerkstatt. They said that this would occur with all new C4, is due to design and is not to be parked. Does anyone have a tip to help? Greet Micah

Hello, we are just about to buy a car. We want to become a Citroen C4 Grand as a gasoline engine. Petrol engine because we almost never get more than 10,000 km per year. Now the question arises for us whether the 130 hp manual transmission will take a car or the 165 hp with automatic. Actually we wanted to get a switchcar, but now we are a little unsure if the automatic would not be better for us. To us or what we want to do with the car. We are currently 4 P No. 5 is in the planning. We want the car as a family car. It will also be our only car. For the holiday we want to make a roof box and a trailer to the car depending on how we go with the place. And with the trailer is our big question mark. If the 130 hp engine without any problems creates a trailer (no living-persons but only a simple with a tarpaulin over it in which you can outsource a few things e.g. prams). Unfortunately we could only the 130 hp mo The 130 hp have felt sufficient, but you have already noticed on the highway with 150 km/h that the car becomes more restless (it was also good wind on that day). More I would not necessarily drive by car from the driving feeling. However, since we also like to drive 180 km/h, if there is the highway, the question is now whether this with the automatic is possibly a better driving feeling. The car is mainly driven in the vicinity, where max. 100 km/h are allowed. Has someone probably driven both times (sample) and can report differences? There should be a new car with us. Thank you.

Hello! I would like to buy a new C4 1.4 Advance because it is equipped with a speed limiter and cruise control. The problem is that I have read here about many problems with the reliability of the vehicle. Does this only concern the first years of construction or is it different for the years 2008 and 2009?

Hello Did I want to change the brakes at the HA and VA. 2004 C 4 Coupe 1.6 I ( 3001 849)60.000km On the rear axle you have to change the wheel bearings with or?But if the bearings are still good I understand that wouldn’t be unnecessary The good people of the lemon want 930-950 Euro for VA complete and HA complete ;( rip off?Fair? I don’t think. For me as Azubi pigs a lot of money. Can someone recommend me cheaper parts that also hold something or other solutions? Thanks in the Vorra us greetings

I’m not quite sure when it started exactly, but I can’t control the charge via the app anymore. Don’t do this every day, but maybe since the new update could be like this. Does anyone else know the problem?

Dear colleagues, since my battery is probably replaced I am looking for a battery with maximum start power (at least 72 Ah) and maximum size for the C4 Grand Picasso I, 2.0 gasoline 140 HP. I have now read several times and also heard from car drivers that the C4GP basically installs too weak batteries and thus also wrongly offered by the battery manufacturers to weak batteries according to the production specifications, with Varta e.g. with 60 Ah. the Varta Silver or Blue Dynamic recommended, so from 72, 73 Ah. Maybe there are also better alternatives?What kind of battery is the best for the C4GPI 2.0 l gasoline (lead, AGM, gel)?And does anyone know the maximum dimensions that can be installed?From the power it is clear: Exide or Varta. But are there reasons for other models or do you know any other alternatives?Exide Premium Carbon Boost with 77 Ah, 760 A 76,20 €Banner POWER BULL 12V 74Ah 680 A 83,90 €BOSCH S4 008 74 Ah 680A 86,29 €Varta Silver Dynamic Ah 77 780 A 88,91 €

Hello together, we bought 2 weeks ago a used C 4 Grand Picasso BJ. 2008 with fresh Tüv from a local dealer. Today I found that the suspension spring at the front left is broken. In my opinion this does not look like a fresh break point. (See pictures) Wouldn’t that have to be noticed at the Tüv.? And question to the community, is there a chess shortage here? Am I sure that the dealer is called on the fresh Tüv. I’d be grateful.
