There is a detailed presentation of the proposed changes to the promotion for e-cars from 2023. There it says about plug-in hybrids: Quotation: 3. In the sense of a as slim as possible promotion, which focuses on the positive climate protection effect and since plug-in hybrids are now marketable, the promotion for plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) is to end on 31.12.2022. Specifically this means that plug-in hybrids with a first registration from 01/01/2023 thus no longer receive funding I would like to know how the reaction of the old PSA core brands is. Especially from the point of view of the current delivery times. Do you buy the vehicles anyway or would this change lead to a cancellation of the order? Vehicles such as DS4 or Peugeot 308 have only come on the market this year as a plug-in hybrid. The price difference with the pure burners is still clear at the moment. If possible, it would be an objectively friendly discussion and, if possible, limited to the former PSA core brands.

Hello together Sorry, but I have to take up a serious topic, which I am very concerned about, because it is about human life here. Upcoming … I was super satisfied with my DS7 until he unfortunately drove straight ahead in a curve. In short: I wanted to turn into a right turn at approx. 55km/h, but the DS just went out and was no longer steerable. I came to a stop after the braking shortly before the ditch on the opposite track. The assistance system was not activated. Several alerts flashed in a row, some of which I could still photograph, e.g. “Error tracking system” and “Servo steering”. You can imagine that I will no longer be on the road with this vehicle. I don’t want to imagine how the situation would have ended if I had only 2 minutes later at speed 100 on the road. dstraße into the oncoming traffic or in the forest would have strayed from the road. Unfortunately, this does not interest anyone at DS. Neither the company Spiegelhalder and Heiler in Heidelberg, where I bought the DS, nor the PSA Leasing and also not the DS Salon, where the car has been standing since January and which said with quote: “the fault memory was cracked, you can drive quite calmly”. (shortly: I had the DS in front of the workshop at the expert) I have no idea if such an F I hope and don’t wish it to you.

Hello Together On a longer journey to Italy, 2500 km, two errors occurred during the return journey: 1. The yellow engine sign lights constantly. can not reset. 2. fault electric drive. In Ticino, in front of the Gotthard, I called the hotline. If the petrol engine runs normally, I should drive home and bring the car to my workshop. The report from customer service reads: On long journeys the small 12V battery in the rear discharges, and the electrical system The error can only be deleted by the program in the workshop. If the errors are there, the loading of the main battery is useless. The electrical system is switched off. There is no solution for the time being. An update with the latest data has probably been made. But the workshop manager does not know if the problem is solved. Who knows more?

Hello to the municipality. Next year there will be a change of the car. Currently I drive an E350d and am more than dissatisfied with the price-performance of Mercedes. Premium are probably only the prices at Mercedes. But this should not be the topic here. My question refers to the workshop service at DS. The vehicles are, according to my knowledge, not offered at pure Citroën dealers. But what about the regular service work? The next DS dealer is But a pure Citroën dealer is in the next city. Therefore, the question arises whether a DS can also be looked after by a Citroën dealer in terms of service without losing any guarantee? How do the forum members do this here, since I am certainly not the only one who does not have a DS dealer at an acceptable distance? Thank you very much in advance.

Moin! I’m looking for a new company car right now. Coming from the Insignia, I don’t need much more space in the future, which is why I like to look around a number smaller. Actually, the previous place should give way to a little more sportiness in the future. So I would probably be out of place now with the DS4 E-Tense. Nevertheless, I like it visually and should now face the Cupra Formentor (Hybrid, 245PS) in direct comparison with me, which for me is currently also hoc h is in the course. Except for very few YouTube videos, which are all quite superficial, there is not much you can find. I would be interested in how the assistance systems and infotainment work. Is there Patzer, or does everything work as it should, or even exceptionally well? So: Does the track hold assistant find its tracks? Does the Adaptive Tempomat work smoothly? Does it work together with the traffic sign recognition – thus also slows down car Is the head-up-display what? Does the connection to Apple Carplay work without any problems and does it work wirelessly? I would also be interested in how the car is driving, if the battery is flat when the long distance is running. Will it then become sluggish? Just throw in a few things that you feel worth mentioning. I thank you!

Hello, some questions, where I find in the www no answer, before the leasing: – which oil change interval has the 225 hp petroler and what does it cost? – which service interval (small / large) has the 225 hp and what does it cost? – can you dress up the open steering rod, so it doesn’t work! – is the fake exhaust also available at the 225 beziner, have read something contradictory in the forum? – are there current leasing offers that have a good LF? Where did you buy, there is only from selected stores in a few centers? Look forward to lots of info, as it is definitely a variant for me, at the next order… Thanks & VG

Dear everyone, has someone already dealt with the issue of warranty or/and warranty extension? After we have only 2 years the extension possibility exists up to (in total 96 months), but what is really involved with it? If I look at the variant 1 (simple warranty extension), here are actually all the relevant things, such as the batteries (by the way I forgot to mention – I drive a 4×4 E-Tenese), or also the headlights not included. if I think that only one of the engines of our headlights breaks (and here I am not talking about rockfall) and we will have to change the complete headlights that will probably go into the money …. I have a few months to decide here whether the extension really makes sense, because at least over € 7,000,- for 96 months with one-time payment and if then nothing is covered …. I would be interested in your considerations and experiences about this Here!
