Problems with ABS/DSC system and warning light on Citroen C5 petrol model 2013 - experience and solutions wanted

Hey, your problem sounds familiar to me. I had a similar problem with my Citroen C4, built in 2011. I'm not exactly a car genius, but I already had some experience. So I went to my garage and had the fault memory read out. It turned out that the ASC relay was faulty. I then paid around 90 euros for the repair. It could be that you have a similar problem, but it's always good to have it checked by a professional first. It would be helpful if you could tell us a bit more about your vehicle and its condition. Are there any other symptoms? Has any work been done on it recently? The more information you can provide, the better we can help you.

Hi, my C5 only has 7712 km on it and the last service was just recently. No unusual noises or other symptoms, no recent work on it either. I will take your advice and have the fault code read out, that sounds sensible. Thank you, I will keep you posted!

That sounds like quite a short driving distance for such a young car. It could well be that the fault memory simply has a glitch and not a real problem. Have the code read out to be on the safe side, but it is quite possible that there is no real fault. If there is a fault, it could be the ABS relay, like mine. Every car is different, but fortunately many problems are universal. In any case, keep us posted and let us know what comes out of the investigation. Good luck and have a safe journey!

Hello, yes, the driving distance is still really short. I will hope that it really is just a glitch and not a real breakdown. Your experience with the ABS relay is really helpful, I'll definitely keep that in mind. Thanks again for the tips, I'll let you know when I have any news. See you then, looking forward to a good ride!
