Hello,

I am considering buying a second hand DS7 from 2020. The car supports Android Auto, it has Wifi but on the test drive I couldn't get Android Auto to work wireless. The sales person had no idea himself (which is always great). I was under impression when car has Wifi it should be possible to get Android Auto going wireless. Hence, should it...

Hi all,

I couldn’t see an answer to my query, so if it does exist, apologies,

I’m looking to access the engineering mode on our 5008, to enable the entertainment system to use a usb hub. There is one code mentioned quite a few times on the web, 7503900. However I’ve had no success with this number. Would anyone have a different code that I could...

We have just purchased a 2019 C3 and cannot figure how to get the maps/nav to work.. i have read through here and am more confused than ever. Is this something i can do myself or will i need to go to the dealer?

Any help would be hugely appreciated as the Satnav was one of the main reasons for getting this car

Hi everyone,
I have a 2014 Citroen C4 Picasso and I'm having an issue where I get an error message when connecting my iPhone via USB. I'm hoping there is a software update available that could resolve this USB connectivity problem.
Does anyone know where I can download the latest update files for my car's system?
Any advice on where to find...

Hello everybody, last year in March I bought a used C4 Picasso 2013 with a faulty top screen. It had black dead spots all over it. I knew it is a common problem on these displays and got a great deal over it.

Since Citroen wants a lot of money for a new assembly and it will fail again eventually I tried to find a company that repairs them. I got...

Good evening, I also have an issue with my car. The music volume decreases when there is more bass in the song, without any option to adjust the volume based on speed or any other way. This happens both when I'm using Bluetooth on my iPhone 12 and when using a cable. I've also tried with Samsung, and it behaves the same way. Only on the radio does...

Hi just wondering where I can find firmware update for my car. The MyCitroen app isn't working for me. I also can't find anything on citroen website. I've seen some posts here for firmware updates but I'm not sure if they apply to my car. Cheers.

Hey all,

As of late, my SMEG+IV2 seems to be on it's way out, complaining of a phantom USB device not available. Power supply fault. Please disconnect all devices. - There isn't anything plugged into the USB port, and the message can't be dismissed (or, it can but will come back immediately, functionally bricking the SMEG)

Hi all. Bought a 2017 SpaceTourer. Love the van. However, only the Apple CarPlay and MirrorLink icons are visible in the app menu. Android Auto is not there.

Citroen C4 from 2018, during a conversation after connecting via Bluetooth, I cannot hear the voice of the person I am talking to, only a fraction of a second of buzzing and then nothing. What could be the reason?
Sometimes it happens that you can talk normally, then suddenly the sound stops and you can't talk for a few days, then it miraculously...

Hi all , My first post.

just got a Rifter allure 1.5 blue 100 ,20 plate , 3 days ago , low mileage , great runner. No really detailed handbook so I'm slightly lost as to what it has fitted.

It has lane assist, I think it recognises speed limit signs so I assume it has a camera but can I access the camera as a dash cam ?. Can I view the videos...

For those interested, PSA have released European Map version 22 for Wave 2 systems today. So it should be available on your App or the direct download is here:

Click the link and choose to Save Link as . It's 9.2 Gb compressed :yikes:

I'm scouring the internet but can't seem to find anyone getting around this one yet.

So I have a Rifter 2022 with Nac wave 2 (at least I think I do from the forums I've seen up so far - 3d nav sat and Android/Apple) and am annoyed by the fact that it has only one USB port capable of Android/Apple connection while the other is only for charging....

Hi,
I own a DS3 crossback 69 plate.
I often (not always) have problem connecting CarPlay. Sometimes, when the lead is connected to the phone the car doesn’t link to CarPlay but only to ‘iPod’ instead.
Does anyone have this problem? or any tips on how to make it work properly every time I link the phone?

Thanks

Hi,
I own a DS3 crossback 69plate and the sat nav needs updating. The DS garage quoted me £144 to update it!!
Is it easy to do myself?

I must admit that I am quite frustrated with the App and the software/firmware update method.
We own a DS3 Crossback E-Tense since 2020 and it has been a real challenge to perform updates.
I believe to have taken all the necessary requirements:

*Make sure the USB stick is of 32GB and formatted in FAT32

My wife has a 2019 Citroen C3. The Android Auto sat nav has stopped working. The Samsung phone says ‘Can’t connect to car screen’ and the car screen says ‘Navigation System Absent’. I’ve switched the phone on and off and also changed the cable but it made no difference. Any ideas what could be wrong please?

There is a new map that is available for the Wave 2 NAC for Europe (version 21) - but not officially released by PSA yet, so won't be available via the My Citroen App or the PC App as yet. This often happens whilst they are testing new releases and it can be a month or so later before they do release it publicly via their distribution network.
