Day one - Ignition coil failed.
Water bottle sensor stopped working.
Reverse sensor stopped working.
Fan control module failed.
Ignition coil 2 failed.
Tire sensors faulty; they keep on reporting "wheels deflating" while it's in perfect order.
I expected more from an Exclusive model; the electronic systems are of poor quality and design. Running cost is extremely high and parts are priced ridiculously high.
Internal build quality is also very poor.
It never seems to stop, today (23 Oct 07) the LCD back light has failed...
Au Contrair Mon-amie! I love my French car. It's been fantastic. You must of got a Lemon. Funny thing is "Citroen" means "Lemon" in translation.
Pity you got a dud. I have the 2 litre 2004 Automatic and with its 5 Year Maintenance Plan it cost me zilch. The last service cost (paid by Citroen) was RI,800! I have done 80,000 kms. and it is now out of warranty.
Recently I had a problem with the gearbox and Citroen's Head Office assisted me in repairing it at nominal cost.
A Fuel Electronic Sensor for my wife's Opel Corsa 1400 cost me almost as much!
Get the 2 Litre and you will see the difference.
The reason for the expensive parts in South Africa is the crazy mark-up that Imperial (the Importers) charge on Citroen parts!
