I absolutely love the new 2CV, but I think they could add a few more bits to make it more like the classic model. Like here for instance, the front bumper could be a bit bigger, a cover for the rear arch and a third window on the C pillar, just small changes that could make a huge difference.

Hi, I'm looking for some advice about a 2011 Citroën C3 1.4 VTR+ with 45k miles that I'm considering buying as my first car.

I test-drove it and thought it was a really great little car overall. It was also in absolutely immaculate condition. However, I noticed something that concerned me when starting the car, and I'd appreciate some advice from a mechanic or someone familiar with this model.

The issue: When pulling away from a standstill in first gear or reverse, I felt I had to press the accelerator pedal further down than expected before the revs started to rise and I could get to the biting point. The pedal moved smoothly, but seemed slow to respond.

What I noticed:

No strange noises when pressing the accelerator.

Once moving, the car changed smoothly between gears 1–5, and the clutch felt normal.

The car sounded quiet.

No warning lights on the dashboard.

It has a full service history and passed its most recent MOT on 1 September 2026 with no advisories. It also passed the previous MOT with no advisories.

I didn't try any hill starts, so I'm unsure whether this might cause any problems. It could simply be a case of getting used to a different car, but I've never noticed this in other cars I've driven.

My questions:

Is this normal for a 2011 Citroën C3 1.4 VTR+, or could it indicate a problem?

Could it be an issue with the accelerator pedal or throttle response, rather than the clutch?

Would this be a reason to avoid buying the car, or is it something that could be checked relatively easily before purchase?

I really like the car and would love to buy it, but I'm concerned that this might be a sign of an underlying issue or something I'd need to replace.

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hello everyone! I own a C2 from 2007 and I’d like to install a double-din radio.
I bought one from Junsun, selecting my car’s model but it came with this connector..
My boyfriend and I figured tonight that models made before mine use a different control unit/connector which is why it came with this🥲

Is there a specific adapter for mine? Thanks!

C4グランドピカソのマニュアル車に乗っているのですが、シフトノブが割れてきてしまって交換したい。このシフトノブはレバーから上に向けて引っ張れば抜けるのですか？それともブーツと連結しているから、インパネからブーツを外してから引っ張るのですか？日本車ではネジになっていて回して外すのが一般的なので質問しました。

Hi, is there anyone in the group who knows their way around the electrical system in a C3 I and could help me? (Warning: this post will be long.)

The problem is that something in my C3 I is draining the battery. Sometimes the car can sit for a week and start right away, while other times it takes only 3–5 days before the battery is almost completely dead. I’ve already been to a few auto electricians, and every time something was repaired or checked with a multimeter, but the problem has never actually gone away.

As for the general information:

-the battery is brand new — I bought it 2 months ago

-I have a rodent repellent device connected, but I was told by an older auto electrician that there’s no way it could drain the battery almost completely, especially when the car was only parked for 3 days

-the multimeter doesn’t show any problems with the charging system

-the multimeter also doesn’t show any short circuit involving the fuses under the steering wheel

-the copper wires on my alternator have turned black

-I have a Pioneer MVH-S120UB radio installed, but when I turn the car off, the radio also switches off

-I have a couple of burned-out bulbs and a sunroof (I don’t know if either of these could somehow affect the current draw)

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing the battery drain?

2CV returns as an ultra-affordable city EV, and it will cost €15,000

Citroën 2 CV Concept brings familiar design to an affordable electric car vision.

At 3.76 metres long, the concept reinterprets the original Citroën 2CV through a curved roof, rounded wings and separate headlamps with modern LED signatures. The orange-based Infra Red finish gives its simple forms a vivid presence.

The side profile shows how the tall cabin and short overhangs shape its compact proportions. At the rear, a black tailgate extending to the bumper recalls the first-generation 2CV.

The design also considers everyday ownership: independently replaceable bumpers are intended to make repairs easier.

Citroën says the concept previews a European-built model planned by 2028, targeting a starting price around €15,000.

Hi I have a Citroen ds3 that's throwing up P1A9C code , is there a cheap way to fix this without having to go though dealer? 😭

Greetings!

I drive DS 5 2.0 2015. I struggle with starting the engine after a week. Brake pedal feels rock hard to press. After attemp to start engine I get mesage to press brake pedal, which is frustrating because I was pressing it. While driving brakes start to apply even if I press pedal slightly.

Is my brake feeling while driving normal, or should pedal bite a little later? Is my stating issues an evidence to change brake booster valve?

Thank you for answers in advance!

Hi everyone!

I'm thinking about upgrading the door speakers and tweeters in a friend of my father's 2016 Citroën DS3.

He wants better sound quality and a bit more volume while keeping the stock head unit and powering the speakers directly from it.

I have Focal ASE 165s in my Polo, running off an amp, and I really like them. I was thinking of recommending the same ones, but the DS3's tweeter setup is a bit confusing. I haven't figured out where the wiring comes from yet, especially since the Focal tweeters use a passive crossover. I’d like to know if anyone knows where the original wiring originates. Either way, I can always run a new cable to the crossover.

I bough a 2002 c3 1.4hdi, and seller said the speedo doesn't work, and power steering works intermittently.. He also said the vehicle speed sensor is broken probably​.

Speed sensor fuse is no.1 fuse in engine compartment fuse box.. And it was blown. I changed it, and went for a spin.. And it worked, the speedo is showing numbers and steering is nice and soft, but it lasted only ​for 2 minutes.. When I applied little bit more throttle, engine check light turned on, car stalled for half a second, steering stopped working, and speedo again shows zero.

​So I thought it's a bad ground, wiring or something that caused the fuse to blow again. But the fuse is fine! And now it's like it was before, just that i cant repeat what i did because the fuse is now fine, not blown. How does this make sense?
