This is a problem with the 2.2 versioin, we bought ours from new, three years later same happened whilst on holiday, when we got it back to dealer they said new one had to be fitted, cost £650, we had no choice. When i asked them why this had happened as the car had only done 26, 000 miles, they said that was the reason, low mileage, apparently, the car has to be taken for a 20 minute drive once a week at a speed in excess of 50 mph, to burn off excess residue build up on the filter. Yet no one ever explained this nor does it say anything in the handbook. We wrote to Citroen to confirm this and they refused to do so. Also, on the subject of the seats getting stuck, had same problem, whilst under warrenty, they kept releasing them, when it came out of waarenty and got stuck, they told us it needs a new seat, priced at £599, oh yeh.Did not put a new seat under warrenty, just kept bodjing it. Had it checked independently, what is wrong is there is a cable, like a bike break cable, and it has frayed, like bike break cables do, can you get a new one, no, new seat only. Biggest con going, will i ever buy a citroen again. oh yeh.
