Citroën — a Marque About Comfort, and It Rests on the Suspension
Citroën has built its reputation on ride softness for decades. On the current models this is the Advanced Comfort system: suspension with progressive hydraulic cushions and special seats that smooth out bumps better than most rivals. But this comfort has a condition — a sound chassis. When the dampers, the cushions, the bushes and the mounts wear, the car loses exactly what it was chosen for.
So in servicing a Citroën we give the suspension particular attention: we check the condition of the dampers and the comfort-system components, the mounts and bushes, and the wheel alignment. Keeping the signature ride softness is a matter of a chassis serviced in time, and here prevention is especially justified.
PureTech and BlueHDi Engines — the Stellantis Family
Citroën is part of the Stellantis group and shares its engineering with Peugeot, Opel and Fiat: the same petrol PureTech and diesel BlueHDi. On the early PureTech it is important to check the condition of the timing belt that ran in oil and the cleanliness of the oil system; on the BlueHDi diesels — the diesel particulate filter, the EGR and the AdBlue system. We know these engines across several marques at once, so the repair is predictable. More on the PureTech belt detail on the Opel page.
Citroën Vans — Jumper, Jumpy, Berlingo
Citroën's commercial range is the Jumper, Jumpy and Berlingo Van, and all of them are platform twins of the Peugeot vans and other marques: the Jumper is related to the Boxer and Ducato, the Jumpy to the Expert and Proace, the Berlingo to the Partner and Combo. We know these platforms well, parts are available and the repair is predictable. A lift with an 8-tonne capacity lets us take a loaded or heavy van. For commercial vehicles we carry out servicing, chassis and brake repairs under load, diesel work, diagnostics, bodywork and respraying. For companies and fleets we can agree on scheduled servicing.
Plug-in Hybrid and Electric — the C5 Aircross Hybrid, ë-C4, ë-Berlingo
Citroën offers the C5 Aircross Hybrid plug-in hybrid and electric versions — the ë-C4, ë-C3, ë-Berlingo. A plug-in hybrid combines a petrol engine with a traction battery charged from the mains, while the electric versions run on the battery alone. As a garage with hybrid expertise, we confidently diagnose this part — the battery, the charging system and the power electronics — and also handle suspension, brakes, bodywork and the high-voltage system. If you have a plug-in hybrid or an electric Citroën, that falls squarely within our field. For model specifications and technical data, see the official Citroën website.
