Re: Memorising speeds

I find the Citroen satnav pretty good myself (particularly with TomTom traffic), at my age I can't be bothered connecting a mobile every trip ;)

Re: C3 Aircross stop/start

Exactly, that's why I'd disable it in those conditions ;)

Re: C3 Aircross stop/start

When I'm sitting in slow traffic on a hot day I'll choose aircon before a small amount of pollution ;)

Re: Sat Nav

Yes the colours are a bit boring and the town/place names a bit sparse, and it often says e.g. "bear left" when it really means "turn left" and vice versa, but other than that it does the job well. Having had the Tomtom live traffic built-in, I'd never want to be without it again...

Re: Sound System very low on C5 Aircross

Hi vikingdriver58, hopefully you'll get some more responses from C5 owners here, but whilst the volume level on my C3 Aircross is fine, I'm also quite unimpressed with the audio quality. You might not want to do this on a new/nearly new vehicle, but if you can find a car audio specialist who can do ...

Re: Aircross 5 - power failure

Hi, could you maybe reject the car as being unfit for purpose and demand a replacement? Not easy I know, particularly as you probably waited months to get it! (I'm assuming you've had it from new). You could maybe raise the issue with a magazine such as What Car? or Auto Express which might help mov...

Re: Lane departure warning system

Hi routemaster1, I just meant that the active lane departure system (which actually moves the steering wheel) is a fairly recent introduction.

Re: Lane departure warning system

It's too 'new' for a Picasso, I guess some of the C5 owners here might have it. My son has it on his Skoda Octavia which works in the same way.

Re: Lane departure warning system

I had a Berlingo as a courtesy car the other day whilst my C3A was being serviced - it had the active lane departure system which I hadn't tried before. Seemed a bit weird at first as I could feel the steering wheel trying to make a few 'corrections', but easy to overcome if you need to and can also...
