My C5 is only just 4yrs old and done 24500 miles. Whilst having an MOT today, the mechanic informed me that both n/s and o/s front fluid suspension shocks will need replacing very soon, they just about passed todays inspection but was advised to get them changed sooner rather than later. I was quite surprised as the car in my opinion is still relatively 'fresh' and as stated above only 4yrs old with only 24500 miles clocked. I would appreciate any comments from other C5 owners or a Citroen specialist. Thank you.
