Hello, we have signed a lease for the C5 Aircross for my partner. However, the dealer now wants to transfer the transfer costs within 14 days. Is this right? Would you pay immediately? Planned delivery date July 2023 I know this from VW, BMW, Audi and Volvo so far when collecting vehicles. Thank you

Hello, after almost 10 years of VW I was impressed with the C5 as a limousine. So I would have a few short questions for you: It should definitely become a diesel. Is the 1.6 or 2.0 HDI more recommendable ? Do all C5 (Limo) have an air suspension ? I would like an automatic, are these vulnerable ? Are there otherwise general weak points, or. what should I pay attention to when buying ? Have from Citroen really 0 guess. Thank you very much in advance.

Good day, I’m new here so please forgive me if I forget any important information. Just let me know and I will submit it. So now to my problem: I bought last week a Citroen C5 2.0 (140 hp) Exclusive Automatic BJ 2006 and had to notice a few small to large defects. However, this problem is most important to me to solve. —Tacho needle far below zero for the speed indicator (15-20 km/h hangs the needle after) e.g. Tacho 50 un d Tempomat set to 65, this also works correctly. To drive 50 km/h I would have to have 35 km/h on the speedometer. – so first of all I can’t say anything or how it came to it or since when it is. Anyway it was already before the purchase. Since a test drive was not possible, I didn’t know that. I Googled a bit and found a possibility that I was very interested in whether it is so easy and will work. So.. Tacho out, cable away, disk away and Na Turn it to zero. Ready. Against clockwise if I am not mistaken or wouldn’t it matter? Or just pull it off and plug it up at exactly zero? Could or would that work so easily? I hope you can help me if something is unclear please let me know. Thanks already for reading it. Greeting Nikolay

Dear community After I had had enough of the spinning electrics (no part was declared as a cause and that after about 2000 Euronen ) I sold the fat. Now I got an equivalent replacement. Blue HDI with 180 HP from Bj 2015 with 27000 km. C5 Break exclusive… Now it is already defective… he has laid himself on the belly and the LDS oil is sprayed out of the container. Is this a bigger thing? Can I return the car because of this? Thanks for your Ant word I’m a bit next to the track 🙁

Hello, help, my C5 2.0 HDI, 195000 km starts to spin! When you start driving easy and short jerking on the 1 course, then several jerking on the 2 and 3 course and later on the 4,5 ,6 course easy stalling and swinging while driving.As if it was again and again quite lightly brake and give gas. Up to now no control light went on and no error message available. He does not smoke! Has anyone had such a thing??? Gruss Josefsky

Hello together, I play with the thought to buy a C5 Tourer, 2.0 Hdi, 163 HP, year 2015, 91.000 Km. What does it look like with Citroën with problems regarding exhaust system, , related to AGR, PDF, suction tube flap , etc.? Am on the topic a burned child of VW, keyword Dieselgate and update. Therefore the VW must also be gone. Are there good tips? Many thanks in advance to all the write. Greeting Markus

Good day together, I’m new here in the C5 corner. I’m Simon and I’m from Switzerland. I’m happy to ask for “fatherly advice”. After some Citroën AX(GT),BX (GTI),XM,C5 (both V6 ,PRV and 24v) and now C4 (eHDI 2011er), I need more space again because of my two little boys. I’m now making about 10 Tkm a year due to new job. So far 30Tkm , therefore the C4 which is really great. Although I convince Citroën, I tend to a XC70. Find the cart cool, even though I don’t need a drawhorse or really AWD. Also something new….although expensive and the engines just a bit “rustic” Now I’ve seen that. C5 Tourer with light leather and glass roof. 3.0 HDI. I find the exciting. What do you think? https://m.autoscout24.ch/…/citroen-c5-kombi-2009-occasion?… Thank you for feedback Dear Best wishes Simon

When this was finished, I saw the clutch pedal fall through at the entrance (back) I pulled it up again with the tip of the foot, it stayed there. Then I drove home from the workshop; everything OK! The next day, when I wanted to drive away, I pressed the clutch and put the gear in, when I let go of the clutch, the car jerked on and blocked the engine. The pedal remained also below. After phone call with workshop and tip something to pump on the pedal, would probably be Lu ft in the line, I did this , can switch again , immediately to the workshop udndort was found that there was no air in the system . I explained once again the process and the master came to the conclusion , then the clutch sensor and/or clutch encoder must be no longer in order . An exchange must be here . Now cost approx. 320 ,-Euro 3 hours work . Because I have adjusted to this clutch history , I can drive with my car , it goes . However , “Kuplungs Kom plett renewal” not also clutch encoder and taker ? Would the WerKstatt not have had to recognize this defect too ?? Who has made similar experience ?

Subject Used cars, year 2001-2004 The C5 Break seems quite interesting to me for my purposes as used cars, so I just ask to the forum for comments on the typical gasoline engines. I don’t drive a Citroen yet and return about 15000 km per year, partly also in the city traffic of Bembeltown. The 2-litre engine with 136 hp seems most solid to me. Probably millions of times in various Peugeots and Citroens in use and absolutely mature. n with 140 hp brings with it a little more technology, so I expect a higher repair effort with a little less consumption. The 3-litre engine with 207 hp is certainly a lot of fun during cross-country trips, but for city trips I should then probably switch to bicycle and public transport. What do you say about it? Or are you diesel fans anyway?

Hi, citroen-fans, admittedly I am not one myself, but a good friend asked me to accept his C5 times. He already invested (thanks to the nice citroenpartner) over 2000 ökken in the cars and his servo still does not work properly. It is a C5 combi of the 2nd generation. EZ was 2012 Diesel 1.6 l HDi / 82 kW Share was renewed by citroen the servo unit (1000 eu) and a lot more already. On his (all) last visit to citroen was BSI read out/tested/programmed (?) (what exactly can he not say, because laie), which was calculated again with a good 400 ökken and then the steering for 10 km funzte. On the way home when driving up into the autobahn she again failed the service. Now he first has the faxen thick, has logged off the car and has changed to benz. However, he loves his C5 and would be happy if I would get it back. Now I am currently for hours over by means of schematics I’m currently checking the BSI (see photos) and looking desperately for an address where you could send the part to check and fix it if necessary. My other companies don’t dare to do it. No wonder me…^^ That’s why my questions. has had similar probs here with his C5? And how were they finally fixed ? TIPS …. always happy to and from with it !!! Thanks and vg günni
