Citroens have amazing suspension.
If you were getting poor ride or it was too soft - it sounded like the car was running the wrong spheres!

Well if you insist on running over cyclists, it's going to take it's toll on the suspension components!
Seriously though, hope they get it sorted. Citroen suspension is great (or at least it was til they wired it into the electrics)

Re: All packed and ready for the off.
I have international rescue, so going through them, but ironically the problem has cleared the warning light has stayed off since i landed on uk soil, still no extra uppy downy thoughFarmerPug wrote:can you get your citroen fixed in the UK?

i reckon its got wet somewhere, it was torrential when we left Poland and the first half of germany so it was getting rammed wet weather at high speed with 8 hours constant heavy rain, i think/hope something is just a bit damp.

Good to hear it's behaving now.
I have to say, this wasn't the type of weather you were asked to bring with you. It's really very disappointing.
