  • Engine Fault Light - change of coil didn't work

    Hola All

    Got a problem with my 2012 Sports + THP. Engine problem light came on and car slowed right down - has been 'shuddering' for a few months on acceleration. Misfire in second cylinder diagnosed, had changed (along with spark plugs at 4 year major service)
    and was ok next day, however same thing happened today (some faltering from engine on acceleration before it happened). Both time the fan was on overdrive for 5 - mins after stopping. Anyone else had this - is it an ECU problem or an engine one? Cheers !

        I would highly recommend having it checked out by Citroen...

        exactly the same symptoms as my DS3 THP 2012. Citroen concluded it needed a new engine and turbo as excessive damaged to one of the cylinders and turbo bearings were damaged too.

        The total cost of the work required in just under £9k - covered under extended warranty (thank f**k)
