Oil Change Interval Petrol:
Typically every 20,000 km or 1 year, whichever comes first (check manual for specific oil type requirements).
Timing Belt Interval:
Recommended replacement every 120,000 km or 5 years (whichever comes first) for the 2.0i 16V engine. Crucial due to interference design.
Engine Oil Specification:
Refer to manual; typically 5W-40 or 5W-30 meeting PSA (Peugeot-Citroën) specifications (e.g., B71 2296 or B71 2295).
Coolant Specification:
Antifreeze/coolant, typically long-life, ethylene glycol-based, meeting PSA specifications (e.g., G30 or G33).
Brake Fluid Specification:
DOT 4
Power Steering Fluid:
Refer to manual; typically a hydraulic fluid meeting PSA specification (e.g., LHS 297A or mineral oil depending on system).
Common Problems Engine:
Potential for oil leaks, lambda sensor issues, ignition coil failures, and water pump leaks.
Common Problems Transmission:
AL4 automatic transmission can be prone to gearbox control issues, solenoids, and hydraulic pressure problems. Manual transmissions are generally more robust but clutch wear is expected.
Common Problems Electrical:
Body Control Module (BCM) issues, door module faults, CAN bus communication errors, and problems with the multiplexed electrical systems.
Common Problems Chassis:
Front suspension component wear (ball joints, wishbones), rear axle bush wear, and occasional issues with the electric power steering pump if fitted.
