Troubleshooting and tips for defective ABS/DSC system in Citroen C5 model year 2008

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2010 Citroen C4. I'm not a car mechanic, but I do have some experience with cars. Based on my experience, I took my car to the garage where they found that the gearbox oil was worn out - the whole thing cost me 365 euros. Without the exact information about your car, such as mileage and when you last had it serviced, the problem may be slightly different as every situation is different. I hope this helps you a bit. Can you perhaps give more details about your vehicle?

Hello, thank you for your answer. My C5 has a mileage of 110881 km and it's been a while since the last service. Apparently gearbox oil could be the problem for me too, so I will certainly have this checked. I just hope it won't cost more than 365 euros. Thanks again for your advice!

Hello again! I'm glad that my previous answer was helpful. Given your mileage, it sounds plausible that the gearbox oil needs to be changed. You can certainly ask the garage to check the gearbox oil level and condition and possibly go to a nearby car parts store to get the required oil. I don't know if it's possible to calibrate the ABS/DSC system yourself on your C5 - on my C4 I had to go to the garage to do it. Keep your fingers crossed that the repair costs stay within your budget!

Hello, that's a really good idea. I will definitely ask and also go to the car parts store for the oil I need. Your experience has really helped me. I also hope that I don't have to calibrate the ABS/DSC system myself. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the costs won't be too high. Thanks again for your advice!
