We just got our car back from a Citroen dealer service department. The
original problem was one of two electrical sensors stopped functioning
(something I read in this forum before). They replaced that, and
within less than a half a mile from the dealership, the speedometer
had stopped working. When it was returned to the service dept, they
informed whoever owned the vehicle previously (car bought from Car
Giant), must have been "fiddling" or replaced some electrical wiring
that affected the speedometer. Keep in mind that we've only had the
car for less than two weeks. The dealership where we bought the car
from (Car Giant) advised us that they will fix the car. On our way
home from the service dept, we then noticed that the car was losing
power steering..by the time we got home, well, the power steering was
next to non existent.
Anyone ever had any problems like this???

My husband thinks that with the power steering, we might just have to
refill the fluid..but where in the world is it?? The handbook provided
didn't even have a section for power steering!

It's a really nice car, but with all these problems, and what I've
read in this forum, I don't know..

Thanks!
Grace

Take it back you won`t find the reservoir it`s not there !
It`s all electric but the power steering IS linked to the speed of the car
probably a tempory fault in the control unit wants clearing down hth Tim
