2 known faults with sources

2.0/2.2 HDi DPF, EGR, turbo and flywheelDPF / EGR / turbo / flywheel
Engine / equipment
PSA 2.0 HDi (DW10) and 2.2 HDi (DW12), including the 2.0/2.2 JTD in the Fiat Ulysse and Scudo and the Lancia Phedra
Period mentioned
1998–2015
Symptoms
Particulate filter warning and power loss; rough idle from a dirty EGR; vibration and knocks when starting or in low gears (dual-mass flywheel); smoke or hesitation from injectors at high mileage.
Possible cause described
The engine itself is very robust, but the ancillaries are not: the DPF with Eolys additive clogs in town use, the EGR and its cooler fill with soot, the variable-geometry turbo sticks and the dual-mass flywheel wears. The 136 hp versions have more problems than the 138 to 163 hp ones.
Check for the garage
Read the DPF status and additive level, check the EGR and cooler, check the dual-mass flywheel at start-up and measure injector balance rates.
Cost cited in the source
Forced DPF regeneration: €100–150; new DPF: €800–1,500; rebuilt injector: €200–250A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.

Mileage cited in the database: 120,000–180,000 km. This is not a maintenance interval and does not predict a failure.

Applies if: Only the 4007 (2007–2012), twin of the C-Crosser; the 4008 is a different car.

Clutch, ABS/ESP module and crankshaft seal on the C-Crosser and 4007Known weak points
Engine / equipment
Citroën C-Crosser and Peugeot 4007 (Mitsubishi 2.4 petrol and 2.2 HDi)
Period mentioned
2007–2012
Symptoms
A failing Teves ABS/ESP module (expensive repair); clutch and dual-mass flywheel failing when towing because 1st and 2nd are tall; a weak battery (warned by a “gong”). On the 2.2 HDi: a crankshaft seal that leaks oil onto the clutch (which slips, also on the DCS gearbox) and the Eolys particulate-filter additive bag exposed next to the rear wishbone.
Possible cause described
They are twins of the Mitsubishi Outlander. Cases collected by Honest John; the maker often paid part of the ABS/ESP and clutch repairs.
Check for the garage
Check the clutch does not slip; read the ABS/ESP fault memory; test the battery.
