  • Citroen C5 I Break — Where can I get new shock absorbers

  • How do you see if a C 5 has hydropneumatics?

    I just read with horror that the hydropneumatics was at the C 5 extra charge. I thought it would have always been standard ! I am interested in one about BJ `01 – `03. How can you tell if he has the hydropneumatics ?

  • LPG in 3.0?

    Hello everybody, and another question about the new C5. Does any of you have any experience in how the 3.0 liter engine behaves after a conversion to LPG use? Is that possible at all and if so, what does it cost about? I assume from around 2,500 to 3,000 € if someone should do it. Am I wrong with it? Apart from that, I only live a few minutes away from Citroën Postert in Oberhausen. A first conversation left an excellent impression on me! Have you experienced it? with this ? Greetings Dietmar

  • Questions about the C5

    Hello, I’m looking for a Passat replacement, and I like the C5 quite well. I have a C5 10/2010 HDI 165 Exclusive, with 90,000km. The car is sold by Citroen, with 2 years “complete guarantee”. The price is 15,000€, but here must be traded. Now my questions: is there a standard “Skiklappe” in the C5 to take skis with you? Is the “Exclusive” version automatically equipped with Hydrative III+? What should I do when I buy without having to take skis? In general, all the long-term tests that can be read online are quite positive. However, these tests only run up to 100,000km. Are there any serious problems starting from 100,000, or is the car still reliable? Thank you very much for your answers and many greetings! -k

  • Purchase advice:

    Hello together, after my Saab 9-5 Aero SportCombi has unfortunately suffered engine damage and my oldie leaves me Monday, my fleet has already shrunk sharply. That’s why I’m looking for a replacement for my station wagon now, so my first choice has fallen on the C5 Tourer. Especially the good seats and the HP have done it to me, moreover the 3.0 HDI (241hp) plays in the same league as my Aero (250hp). The following C5 is about: 3.0HDI 11/2009 165tkm Navi and X enon From the dealer for 6999€ What do you have to pay attention to when buying? I have already read that there are problems with the spring legs. Is there any other problems that can be expensive (Navi/Elektrik/ tailgate)? Is the 3.0 HDI full-gas-proof? I like to travel quickly! I drive 3 times a week to work 10km and 2 times 45km each. Is there a problem with the DPF? VG eLe

  • Citroen C5 BJ 2012 Limousine – stroller suitable?

    Good day I’m new here in the forum and have some questions directly. I would like to buy a Citroen C5 Diesel Limousine in the near future. This is BJ 2012 and has just run its 50k. The exact model is called “Citroen C5 2.0 HDi 165 FAP Exclusive”. As we expect offspring, but I don’t have a pram at home so far, I wanted to know if any of you can tell me which trunk dimensions the C5 Limousine has. Fits there a commercial pram there in? Second question: The model I have in mind is equipped with 6 gears automatic transmission. The engine delivers 120 kW. Does this speed up enough? Or are there better alternatives? I often drive the highway, so far with a Toyota Corolla with 85 hp, which is quite a disaster from time to time. Thank you very much, Fo0

  • Citroen C5 2.2HDI 200 Buy Recommendation?

    I’m looking for a car for the moment! Since I drive 60.000km a year I need a car which is not so much used and is not even so expensive in maintenance. So I just have to enter my wish data and got a Citroen C5 2.2 HDI 200. The car has 200ps and should cost around the 18.00€. Exactly what I’m looking for. But now I have a few questions. 1. What about engine maintenance with this vehicle? Does the engine often have serious errors that are really expensive 2. Does the car have a timing belt or a control chain? 3. What about your consumption? Is it really that car on the highway consumes only 4.8 l? 4. Can I recommend this offer or do you think it is too expensive? That was all I wanted to know. Offer: Vehicle offer: Citroën C5 2.2 HDi 200 Aut. Exclusive/Navi/Xenon/Automaton for 17980 EURhttp://suche.mobile.de/vehicles/details.html?id=222895140 Thank you very much for your support. all and wish you a nice day
