Just bought 2017 DS5, fantastic car, but cannot solve a small problem.

While both wing mirrors fold when I lock/unlock the car, I cannot fold them using the mirrors cabin control switch. I can adjust the mirrors using this switch if I turn the knob left or right, but when I turn it in the central position and push down, nothing happens....

To clarify - I do have a DS5, so the manual is wrong or the switch has been changed? Either way, rotating the switch worked, as per the C3 instructions

I’m in two minds if I’m going for the 20’ or just refurb the 19’

Last post

As a general rule, going up in size of the wheel means having to use tyres with a lower profile. This in turn means that there's less compliance in the tyres and this translates to a harsher ride.

If the vehicle has completely run out, you MUST follow the exact guidance in the owner handbook, as there are time conditions that you must comply with before turning on the ignition, otherwise you can end up with issues.

Interesting to know the antenna connections are underneath this cap. Radio reception on my DS5 is worse than a few years back, maybe I can find something wrong in there. It falls back to FM frequently, so I can only listen to channels which are available both on FM and DAB+ (and FM is mono only, due to a know issue in the SMEG firmware :( )

You may likely find it is the Heater Motor Control Module. When these fail it's usually all or nothing on the fan speed.

The power is supplied to the motor via the HMCM resistors, so that's why there won't be any power to the motor if this module has failed.

Weird one this but I went out this morning and some drips of water came out of the overhead unit in the roof, from the corners of the part of the display which shows the seat belts (photo attached).

Hi, I have a ds3 1.6 diesel in which the adblue injector needs replacing as its showing signs of leaking. I've looked online and it looks simple to replace, however once the new one is installed do you have anything with the cars electronics in order to accept the new part?
Thank you.

Ok, so you had an error in the 4th number of the VIN, it should be an 'S' not a 5, but I figured that out.

Here are the details for the fault codes as they relate to this engine, which may aid in troubleshooting, but I suggest you get some fuel in the vehicle as you can do without the added complications or faults due to a lack of fuel.

Hey guys.

I have just recently just bought a DS3 the rear wiper originally seems slow.. After using the washer on the rear window (so basically adding water) the wiper ran smooth.

After this the wiper won't stop no matter what position.

Can any one advise on the best course of actions to diagnose this..

Although normally a close up is good, can you provide a photo zoomed out so I can determine exactly which area this is, along with the VIN which I need for correct electrical data (please post your VIN in full without spaces - it will be automatically masked from public view after submitting your post & will only be visible to staff).

I agree, it is probably a calculated value based upon engine speed, the selected gear and the road speed. Probably warning you that if continuing under these conditions the clutch could overheat.
