Ignition System:
Electronic ignition (petrol)
ECU Details:
Coverage of ECU functions, sensor inputs, and actuator outputs for all engine variants.
Euro Ncap Rating:
Not specifically tested or publicly documented for this generation under Evasion name, but shares platform with models that received varying results.
ABS:
Standard on most models, optional on early base trims. Manual covers ABS diagnostics and repair.
Traction Control:
Optional on some higher trims. Manual likely covers its operation and diagnostics.
Airbags:
Front driver and passenger airbags standard on most models. Side airbags optional on later models. Manual covers airbag system diagnostics and replacement.
Seatbelts:
All seats equipped with three-point seatbelts. Manual covers pre-tensioner systems if equipped.
Audio System:
Factory fitted radio cassette/CD players, often with steering wheel controls. Manual covers basic system operation and fuse locations.
Cruise Control:
Available on higher trim levels. Manual covers system operation and troubleshooting.
Parking Sensors:
Optional on later models. Manual would likely not cover these as they were not standard or widely adopted during the early production.
Early Connectivity:
Limited to radio and auxiliary inputs. Manual focuses on vehicle systems, not external device integration.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 15,000 km or 1 year (petrol), 10,000 km or 1 year (diesel), but consult manual for specific engine and oil type.
Timing Belt Replacement:
Crucial for XU and EW engines, typically around 80,000 - 120,000 km or 5-6 years. Manual will specify exact intervals and procedures.
Coolant Change Interval:
Varies by coolant type, typically every 2-4 years or 40,000-80,000 km. Manual will specify correct coolant type (e.g., G2/G3).
Engine Oil Specification:
Various grades based on engine and climate, e.g., 5W-40, 10W-40, 15W-40. Check ACEA standards (e.g., A3/B4, C3 for diesels). Manual is definitive.
Brake Fluid Specification:
DOT 3 or DOT 4. Manual specifies exact type and replacement interval.
Power Steering Fluid Specification:
Specific hydraulic fluid, often referred to as 'Hydraulic Fluid LHM' or similar synthetic fluids. Manual will confirm.
Common Wear Items:
Suspension components (bushings, ball joints, anti-roll bar links), exhaust system, clutch components, certain engine sensors (e.g., crankshaft position), ABS sensors.
Diesel Engine Notes:
XUD diesel engines can be robust but require regular maintenance. TD models can suffer from injector pump issues if not maintained. HDi engines are generally more reliable but require clean fuel.
Electrical Gremlins:
Common in vehicles of this era, often related to earth connections, multiplex wiring (if applicable), or aging ECUs/modules. Manual's wiring diagrams are essential.
Automatic Transmission Quirks:
AL4 transmissions can be sensitive to fluid levels and condition. Manual provides diagnostics for common shifting issues.
Citroen Legacy:
Citroën is known for innovative design, front-wheel drive, and comfortable suspension systems, often pioneering new automotive technologies.
Mpv Development:
The Evasion was part of the 'Eurovan' project, a collaboration between PSA Peugeot Citroën and Fiat Group (for Fiat Ulysse and Lancia Zeta), sharing the same basic platform and many components.
Production Period:
1994-2001
Manufacturing Location:
Sevel Nord plant, Hordain, France (joint venture facility with Fiat)
