Damaged Engine

[broke C5 owner]

Anyone else had a major engine breakdown of a C5, 2.2 Hd1 Diesel Engine.

 

Understand that a number were re called due to engine failure.

 

Citroens stance is that its out of warranty, tough.

 

based on vehicle having been serviced at main dealers from new, at approx 12000 mile intervals as per handbook. seems a hard decision.

 

Thanks

Bloody hell thats a big blow en't it.

 

Have Citroen given a price to fix it. Mind you the prices they charge I wonder could you have an egine taking out of a written off C5.

 

I was at my local deale a few weeks ago and this guy bought his van in for an 80,000 miles service and they were discussing wheathe it needed a new cam belt as it had a new engine at 30,000 miles it was a 54 reg. But vans get a 3 year or 100,000 miles warranty.

 

I seen a C5 on ebay an 03 reg going for next to nothing as it needed engine work doing on it
