Re: C5 Aircross latest update number

No.

Firmware updates are only released when there is a need to fix a problem with the head unit or update some of the software for compatibility reasons. You already have the latest version released from February 2023.

Re: 2019 c3 aircross issue

I'm assuming you have a 1.2 EB2 engine - you have not confirmed this? If so, there was no 'recall' for this issue. Recalls are generally only for safety issues and are notified to the owners with assistance of the DVSA to notify registered keepers if they do not have the address of the customer. Sec...

Re: new to the aircross

You'll have 17 inch 'Origami' Diamond Cut Alloys on this, but tyres are not specified, so you'll have to wait and see what they ship with. Grip control system does provide a better range of EXP / Traction Control programmes for different terrain over the standard system, but for winter / snow, don't...

Re: new to the aircross

The grip control function is a good optional feature to have, but only if you’ve got all season tires fitted. Citroen made a bit of a muck up on earlier models with this option selected as they provided Bridgestone Turanza tyres which are absolutely useless even in the summer. I removed all four Bri...

Re: new to the aircross

Basically No. As of April 2024: 1) The latest C3 Aircross models are no longer supplied with Blind Spot Detection. 2) The latest C3 Aircross models are no longer supplied with park assist. On previous years and models, they were not standard, but usually part of one of the option packs, however none...

Re: Oil for 1.5bluehdi

No

Oils specifications have changed and that is the incorrect grade.

Re: 1.5 BlueHDi engine timing chain information.

Because it was determined that an 8MM chain was needed. And yes, they are fitting the modified chain to new vehicles with this engine. Once the damage has been done, it is not just the chain that is replaced, but the relevant exhaust ports and everything else is replaced as per the guide, depending ...
