  • Citroen C5 Mk III 3.0 HDi Tourer - Uprated bulbs for C5 Mk III 10 Apr 2016 (Forum)
    I bought some Philips X-treme Vision +130% bulbs for my Mk III C5 and whilst the car was in for something else with the local Citroen dealer I asked if they would fit them. The head mechanic (who had worked many years for Citroen) strongly advised against it. He said (something like) the extra brightness would draw too much current and create too much resistance in the lighting circuit and the car's management system would interpret this either as a blown bulb or a short circuit and would close the circuit down.

  • Citroen - 2004 2.0 hdi Snapped cambelt at 61,500miles 24 Jul 2013 (Forum)
    On top of that my comrehensive mechanical breakdown insurance that I was sold when I purchased my C8 would not pay for the damaged engine at all - just the first £1000 which is almost the amount I have paid to the main dealer. Citroen recomend that the cambelt on the 2.0 HDI diesel unit is changed at 100.000 miles - a procedure that involves engine removal to complete! I bought this vehicle in good faith and after 3,700 miles and 5 months I am faced with a huge bill now in excess of £6,000.
