2020 Citroen C3 Aircross 1.5 HDI Engine Service

Servicing a 2020 Citroen C3 Aircross fitted with the 1.5 BlueHDI (YHY) Engine. It was getting an oil change, new oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter.

This is very similar to the older 1.6 8v DV6 engine fitted to most PSA Cars, however, the fuel filter location is different with it being located under the car in front of the rear wheel. While it might be a nuisance for someone using axle stands, I personally found this a better arrangement compared to the older engine. The filter is actually easier to remove (despite needing a 19mm hex socket or M12 bolt to undo the fuel filter housing lid), it was an easy filter to change and the priming procedure was made very simple due to the fact there was an in-tank fuel pump.

It is still quite an easy car to service, not too sure exactly what the parts cost as my friend who owns the car supplied them in the boot but I would imagine it is all similar to the older engine.
