Re: Infotainment Screen goes blank followed by thumping noise

Yes, these units are fitted on vehicles across the marques, so will affect Citroen, Peugeot, DS and Vauxhall vehicles fitted with this system.

I assume you have the IVI system and these are generally awful units from my experience to use and operate.

Re: Cambelt problem.

I hope you get a good outcome. But any warning relating to oil pressure on these must be taken seriously. It indicates oil starvation very likely due to blockage from wet belt debris. Even the small amounts of shredding can lead to cumulative blocking over time. There is some good news of a conversi...

Re: C3 Aircross timing belt to engine damage

By they, I take it you mean Citroen - they will deal with these cases on an individual basis. I don't think the 2 day gap will be a particular issue, as I think they will have a great job in trying to argue that case under any challenge. It's more likely to be whether the car has been properly servi...

Re: C5 Aircross - Replacing EFB with AGM battery

Hi So if S&S doesn't work properly I need to remove the battery, charge it, connect it to the car again, leave the car alone for 4+ hours. Yes, a good long trickle charge overnight or longer if possible, and then leave on the car for the battery management system to calibrate will help. But bear...

Re: New C3 Aircross 2025.

Be advised the C3 Aircross as we know it will be discontinued next year. The e-C3 above has finally made it's way to these shores above - but my local dealership only has a left hand drive model on display! So that tells you how behind they are on this model on getting it out to market - should of b...

Re: C5 Aircross service intervals

Officially, 20k miles or yearly is correct for this engine variant (DV5RC) according to your VIN.

Re: Automatic Folding Wing Mirror & Door Handle Touch Lock Faults

There's nothing to check apart from the door aperture wiring. Check here for breaks, but internal to the door there's nothing you can do - it will be either the handle which contains the sensor or the Hands Free ECU if not a wiring issue. Just make sure you have cleaned the door handle carefully, bo...

Re: C5 Aircross latest update number

My advice - don't use a MAC! It's asking for problems. Try and use a Windows PC. There will be MAC system files left on the USB that can cause the update to fail.
