Citroen C4 rear airbag suspension replacement

Citroen C4 grand picasso suspension failure and investigation.
In this video I detail Citroen C4 suspension failure and how to replace the rear suspension airbags. It's cheaper and easier than I thought. I hope this helps.
Hello everyone interested enough in this channel to visit here.
I'm just a single Dad whose son wanted his own KZbin channel to try and make some money because, quite frankly, we're pretty poor. Sadface.
But we're really happy together and I'd do anything for him, including making all sorts of random videos to upload to KZbin.
As such there's going to be games, reviews of various things and, as I generally can't afford to pay to get things fixed, anything I'm repairing that I can video I'll also upload.
Whatever you're doing folks I hope you're more successful at it that I am, take care and stay safe.
PLEASE SUBSCRIBE.
Peace.

Hey, very informative video, thanks a lot for sharing!! I have now the confidence to fix my own car that release air after a day or so. Thanks again!

You're very welcome and thanks for taking the time to comment. Anything we can do for each other in these difficult times is going to be worth doing. Take care.

Hey thanks for taking the time to produce this video. Mine sits down now and again. I thought it may be the ride height sensor if there is one. Best wishes

[@channelone4655]

If we share what we know we all get smarter. Now, yes there are height sensors. One in front of the rear wheel, and one in the middle of the axle, (don't ask). But if these fail they normally bring a suspension fail message on the dash. I think I've measured their readings in one of my other suspension failure videos, but I can't remember which one. But saying that, the most common reason for the car lowering, especially overnight, is a hole in a suspension bag. My fault was quite specific but usually dirt and grit gets trapped in the fold of the airbag and just rubs away at it until a hole appears. As I did here, pumping the suspension up and spraying a soapy liquid over the bag can find most leaks. I hope this helps.

Loved this video very precise very informative no rubbish step by step explanation thank you

[@channelone4655]

You're very welcome. Thanks for taking the time to comment. I'd like to video more but when I watch them I keep having to pause anyway. As long as it's helped someone I'm happy.

[@ianearnshaw819]

@channelone4655 that didnt deter the watching as you very carefully explained what if anything the cam missed

[@Sennbrink]

Very detailed and educational.

[@channelone4655]

Thank you. I hope you've fixed your fault too. 👍

i solve my faulty suspension error when is cold , and the sollution is when start the engine don t release the handbreak until the car levels up

[@channelone4655]

Well done for finding a solution. It's odd that it only happens when cold. The suspension shouldn't lose air though so doing as I did early in the video may help find any leaks. 👍

Rear disk brake heats more than the others. Changed caliper + bearing, still some heat and brbrbrbr from that side at speeds over 40mph. What could it be? :(

[@channelone4655]

The electric handbrake is a notorious problem on these. You can manually disengage it through a hole under the left front seat. There should even be a wire tool in the tool kit to do this. Obviously this will cause it's own problems if it's an automatic as you'll have no park brake but it could rule the problem out and I'm sure the same tool can reengage the brake.

Hi, did the ebay airbags hold up Ok? I've got a Peugeot Expert van with the same set up and I've been quoted a huge amount by Peugeot to replace air bags and much cheaper ones on ebay. TIA

[@channelone4655]

Still going strong and had no issues. If it's just the bag that's the problem they really are a simple job to replace too. 👍

[@jackhorb2008]

Hi, were those £47 air springs good? Are they still ok after 10 months of use?

[@channelone4655]

I've had no trouble with them at all. After the first few days, then a 600+ mile holiday with a full car I stopped even thinking about them.
