Defective fresh air blower in Citroen DS5 Diesel 2012 - experiences and opinions wanted

Blower does not work properly

Hello everyone! I drive a Citroen DS5 Diesel from 2012 with almost exactly 60122 km on the clock and I have problems with my blower. The thing just doesn't want to do what I want it to and I think it's a defect in the fresh air blower. I had a bad experience during my last visit to the mechanic and would therefore like to hear your opinions and experiences. Has anyone ever had the same problem and how did your mechanic sort it out? Thanks in advance! Best regards!

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2015 Citroen C5 Tourer. In my case, it was actually the blower motor that was defective. My mechanic fixed it without making a big mess. It was kind of serious because you don't want to drive in the winter without heating and in the summer without air conditioning, but it wasn't like my car's judgment was a disaster. My advice is to get the blower motor fixed or replaced quickly because it can be really uncomfortable to drive without a properly working blower. Good luck with that! Best regards!

Hi, thanks for your quick reply and advice. Your experience doesn't sound too terrible, hopefully my situation isn't much different. Do you happen to remember what the repair cost you? There were no further incidents with it after the repair either, were there? Regards!

Sure, I still remember the cost. It cost me €365 to repair the blower motor. But let me tell you, it was worth every single coin, because since then the fresh air blower has been running like the first day, no more sweating in summer and freezing in winter. I have had absolutely no further incidents with it since the repair. So don't worry, everything should be fine again after a good repair. Best regards!

Hello, that's reassuring to hear. 365€ seems acceptable if the blower runs as well as you say afterwards. I will make an appointment with my mechanic and hopefully I won't experience any further incidents with it after the repair. Thank you for your helpful feedback! Best regards!
