2004 Citroen C5 X 2.0 HDI turbo diesel
Summary:
Comfortable ride
Faults:
Loose vacuum pipe, resulting in the turbo not activating.
6-7 light bulbs over a period of one and a half years.
Front passenger window sometimes won't come up using one-touch mode, it goes to the halfway point and then re-opens, you have to close it 1 cm by 1 cm.
Turbo sometimes fails to kick in, not a good thing while overtaking up-hills. I have to wait until 3000rpm for the turbo to start working.
Squeaking brakes.
Poor servo assistance while driving at low speeds.
General Comments:
Big, spacious on the inside, comfortable seats.
Big boot, practical because of its 5-door design.
Very quiet and smooth ride, great suspension although not good in curves, but great in a straight line.
Love all the sensors (rain sensor, light sensor) and toys.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
