• Renault Zoe and Citroen - Expensive EV repairs 23 May 2021 (Forum)
  Rip off Britain featured two owners who were quoted £7k and £6k by main dealers to fix their EVs. Citroen has its technical centre in Romania and diagnosed over the phone as the bill went up to change part after part to fix the non start. Eventually the owners withdrew their vehicles from the dealers and took them to an EV specialist in Cheltenham which I believe is Cleevely EVs and got them fixed for £1200.

  Hi there, I've just received a 2017 Citroen Berlingo Multispace, Diesel Automatic. 15k miles. On doing a short test drive, the one thing that stood out to me were the very obvious gear shifts. I don't feel the shifts much at all in my previous Ford Focus Petrol Automatic.

  I have just purchased a second hand Citroen C3, 5dr VTR+ 61 plate and I am now experiencing problems when I start it.  It's almost as if it momentarily disconnects from the battery, and it then starts, but my time and date have reset and my windscreen wipers go up and down just for one cycle and then it automatically locks the doors.

• Ds3 - Citroen car leasing 6 Oct 2015 (Forum)
  They tried to insist I had an Mot before it was collected despite not needing one for 2 months. Had the alloys repaired due to a couple of scratches and they said the repair wasn't up to Citroen approved standard so want £130. They failed to collect the car from the dealership but left it there uninsured for a week before anyone contacted me. They said the tyre tred was 1/10 th of a mm below the legal limit so made me replace two front tyres and then charge me £150 for a failed collection.
• Citroen Grand C4 Picasso 2014 VTR - rails/bars? 5 Jun 2014 (Forum)
  I'm considering the base spec (VTR) as it seems like a good price at the moment.  The Citroen brochure appears to indicate that roof rails are not included in the VTR and VTR+ spec level, although I may be misreading it. Thank you, Gary.

• Citroen Berlingo Multispace 1.9 DW8 - 400 miles to a tank 8 Jan 2012 (Forum)
  It could be any one of a number of things, so I just wondered if anyone knew a really good Citroen diesel place (Near Surrey preferably but not essential) Other than that it's a great little motor. Uses no oil and sounds as healthy as a diesel should.
