Citroen C4 110 HDi SX 2006
I love the car and would give it a 4.5 star rating if I could. Bought last year at 79k miles and has been faultless in the 10k since - until this week when a front coil spring snapped, but fortunately the AA’s home breakdown repair cover has met the cost, to my surprise. Engine seems great, economy over 50mpg out of town even with a heavy right foot. The 110 engine is much more capable than the 92 version, the ride is not quite up to my old 306 but soft away from the biggest bumps, I made sure to steer clear of the 17 inch wheels which always ride harshly in this car. Cornering on the limit is very good, though not quite such sharp steering as a Focus, once you get used to it the car is very quick and accurate. I tried a number of C4s before buying this one and they do seem to vary a lot in history, and how well screwed together they seem, mine has no rattles or squeaks and an intact glovebox. Worth getting a good one, because of the great styling and useful electronics, its a shame the eye level central display has gone in the new design, even in the DS4.

Citroen C4 5 door hatchback 2006
I purchased my car in june 2006 it has been faultless, now it has clocked up 43300 miles on its first set of tyres, replaced last friday all treads were low but still legal. I average around 70m.p.g but according to the computer the best I have ever achieved was 83mpg over 80 miles. I cant bear to consider changing as the depreciation is very bad and an insult to such a fine car.

Citroen C4 2006
Very smooth drive with good visibility. Excellent sound system. Generally a very easy car to drive with little complications.

Citroen C4 C4 1.6 HDI coupe 2006
Like others mine has been into the garage so many times. ABS recall. Trim on inside wheel arches coming off within month of buying it. I’ve had so many speed control failures but the garage ignored it the first time it happened then it didn’t happen again until it was out of warranty. Now the turbo has failed. I’ve done 90000km; is the turbo covered by any warranty?

Citroen C4 vtr+ 2006
Its an OK car; the technology seems to work most of the time but cruise control has it moody moments. Also had a fault with air conditioning which was fixed under warranty and has now returned. Will see if Citroen will repair for free as it seems to be a problem with this model if not will never buy another Citroen. This is my fifth Citroen and I can’t say I have had any problems with past cars.

Citroen C4 2006
Dutton Forshaw Blackpool Part exchanged a Mazda for a new 06 reg Citroen C4 Auto in March 2006. Up to 25/03/2008 it has had repairs to the value of £3,325 and was taken back to the garage on 10/04/08 for more work. Repairs include 2 new coolant sensors; car would not start on 2 of the coldest days of 07 and 08. 4 times when I was driving in November 2006 there was a loud bang and the car skidded to a stop with the dash board going haywire. I was traveling approx. 20, 30, 40 and 30 miles an hour at the time. The last 3 occasions I was on a dual carriage way, and should have been doing 70 mph. I was told it was a software problem and the car was safe to drive. On the 2nd and 3rd times I called out the AA and the car was taken to the garage. It was found that the engine was actually going into ’limp mode’. I had to have a new gear box and the car was only 7 months old - this cost £2,770. This was the only time I was provided with a replacement car as this repair took over 2 weeks. Since purchase I am continually receiving error messages on the multifunction displays, usually as the car is moving. I have had one of the display screens replaced but the errors still occur. For months last year I had to drive with the front passenger seat belt locked at all times because the car would bleep continuously otherwise. (I was told if I opened the passenger door the car ’thought’ a passenger should be sitting on the seat). The speed limiter is continually turning itself off and has done so since the car was purchased. This was again repaired in March 08 and it is now obvious that the speed limiter had not functioned properly since the car was purchased. One fault has been recorded 10 times on the car’s on board computer. I rang Citroen; they took all the details and I was told these would be put on their database. I was also given a case number but was told my complaints had nothing to do with Citroen, only with the dealer. It was up to me to ask for my money back or a replacement.
