Re: New C3 Aircross Shine Plus "issues"

I would just be nice if the current speed limit was displayed in a better (more visible) way, and the cruise control/limiter automatically changed to the new limit. It wouldn't be so bad having the limit only displayed on the instrument panel if the touch screen could display the trip data. I have ...

Re: Trip Computer not working

There may be differences between the C3 Aircross and the C5 Aircross. My C3 only has one trip and I though that the C3 Aircross was the same. The C5 Aircroiss sounds similar to our 2015 C4 Picasso, which did have 2 trips, but the computer was completely different to our C3.

Re: 4 wheel alignment

I'd let your dealer do it, as if not themselves, the will have a garage they allocate this sort of work to that they trust to do the job properly. I would recommend that you always take a car to a specialist tyre fitter for this, as I have had at least 2 occasions when main dealers got it very wron...

Re: Car alarm sometimes goes off

It could be some kind of wildlife. Mine have been set off by spiders and moths.

Re: C5 drip, water?

The a/c water can freeze and then melts slowly. On my cars you could use the aircon one evening and still have water dripping out next morning as the ice slowly melts.

Re: Tyre size query

They tend to use a standard pressure. On one of my C4 Picassos the tyres should have been ~48psi, but they still put 35psi in. One of the issues is that the pressure is usually set whilst the wheel is off the car, nd as soon as it is refitted and the weight of the car is on the tyre the pressure wil...

Re: C5 aircross speed limiter- how to turn on permanently?

IIRC, cruise control and speed limiter have been standard equipment on all Citroens for many years, at least 2007, except perhaps C1s. C4 Picassos since start in 2007, or C3 (2011) etc.

Because the rolling diameter is smaller on the front the car will be slifghtly lower at the front than at the back.

Re: New C3 Aircross settings not saving.?

Perhaps it is for fuel saving. Aircon uses a lot of fuel, especially on starting in hot conditions. Defaulting to 21 degrees may well help their lab test fuel consumption to improve economy figures. All cars I have had retain the setting and also the aircon stays off or on depending on what it was d...

Re: Tyre valves

I have a new car (non-Citroen) with indirect TPMS. On holiday in Austria a couple of weeks ago we had a low pressure warning. In our case the system informed of a puncture on the rear left tyre. Citroen could easily do this, but there is no indication of location. For info, the tyre pressure should ...
