Faults:

Driver window clicked when opening and closing. whole unit had to be replaced.

Rear door would not unlock, lock had to be smashed off and replaced by Citroen.

Car judders when in traffic or pulling away from junction, clutch replaced by Citroen, problem still exists.

Third gear has had to be replaced on Gearbox.

Seat adjuster had to be replaced.

Oil leak on clutch and engine.

Headlight dim or switch off while driving, very dangerous on motorways.

Car locks itself for no reason, I have had to climb out of the driver window on one occasion, the car has locked my 3 year old daughter inside on two occasions.

Had a recall for wheels by Citroen.

Accelerator cable had to be adjusted three times, while pulling away at junctions or accelerating in general, throttle was floored.

Car has failed to start three times in the morning.

According to Citroen, since the car has done 68000 miles and is now two years old, this is now classed as an old car and that faults are now inevitable. Pretty appalling really.

General Comments:

I must admit that Citroen have put right most of the faults.

Headlights still dim or switch off.

Central locking still locks itself.

Car still judders.

Being truthful, the car rides superbly on the motorway, but for general town use etc the car performs unreliably.

I explained to Citroen that previously I had a Xantia, Turbo Diesel, bought it at 70k and sold it at 160k, fantastic car, not a thing went wrong for 6 years. Whats gone now Citroen.

Faults:

Cooling fan would not turn off. Relay replaced twice.

Rear tyre wear uneven so had to have the complete rear axle assembly replaced.

Clutch judder developed and had to be replaced.

Immobiliser fault displayed. All electrics failed. AA call-out, had to disconnect battery to reset.

Anti-pollution fault has been painful. This last time resulted in the total loss of power, very frightening on the motorway. Petrol pump replaced and now waiting to see if this is the cure.

Vibration problems. Wheels have been balanced 3 times (once at Citroen dealer) at dealers who can balance these special centre-less wheels. Still have the vibration problems. Will have to put up with this for 4 months until car is changed.

Has had two safety recalls, one for the handbrake and one for a safety download?

General Comments:

Whenever you lift the tailgate you get water running into the boot.

Very quiet for motorway miles.

Very smooth ride.

Faults:

The compact disk player gets very hot in use, making the compact disk very hot and distorting the sound of the music.

All the interior/exterior lights have an intermittent flicker more noticeable on badly lit roads.

The display for the radio, time and temperature lock out so I cannot change between time and temperature.

Also I have heard, but not experienced that this model does not have an audible alarm that sounds if the car is broken into.

General Comments:

This car is used to tow our caravan, as a equipment carrier for our business and scrubs up nicely when required.

Last year we drove 4,000 miles in two weeks through Europe in complete comfort.

We have also found that fuel economy has improved as the mileage has increased.
