Another one bites the dust :-/

Yesterday I had a major engine failure on my DS3R.
Don't know yet if it's the same that others have described here, but judging from the sounds that came from the enginebay when it happend, it's no small thing :-/
(Could not read any errorcodes from OBD...)

Sorry to hear this Fingers crossed it's not the death of the engine.....

Let everyone know when you can what the diagnosis is.

Good luck

[WTF]

Oh no

Keep us posted about what you find out.

Ouch hope it's not as bad as it sounds

Citroën shop says it's just a coil, and suggest I get all 4 changed along with new spark-plugs...
I was under hard acceleration when it happened, but seems strange to me that a failed coil would "feel" and sound that violent :-?

I would be back to them and ask that they confirm the cylinder they've pulled the "faulty" coil from isn't caked in carbon

So long as its not a shattered piston.....

Seems to be running fine with new coils and sparkplugs, pheeew! :-)
Unfortunately I destroyed my frontsplitter on the way home :-(
How much is that??

I payed 490 Eur (w/o VAT or Shipping) for my front splitter. And that's just for splitter without the Lip, if you also need the lip it will be an additional 260 Eur.

You're a very trusting individual

[Bryn]

You're a very trusting individual

You have to be, to drive a DS3R

[kimgr]

You're a very trusting individual

Not trusting, hopeful :-)

(Will have the engine inspected by 3rd party...)

[WTF]

I've known many 2010 THP's that have have a bit of a brain fart rectified with new coils and sparkplugs 😊
