It's in many SUVs these days and probably better, but frankly after how many years?

As the owner of a C6, I can assure you there is a significant difference between the Hydractive III suspension specifications on the C5 and C6. The C6 ride is more limousine-like than the C5. As Jonathan Price points out below, it's like comparing an E Class with and S Class - different cars for different purposes. Phillip Moran's below comments describe a C5 with seriously faulty suspension, the obvious clue being the 'leaking shocks' he describes. Hydractive III Citroens do not have 'shocks'; they have robust spheres that have service intervals of five years. With all Hydractive or earlier Hydro-pneumatic Citroens, if a sphere loses too much pressure or ruptures, the driver becomes aware as the ride immediately stiffens and feels quite harsh. You wouldn't drive a conventional car with leaking shock absorbers and expect a compliant, comfortable, or safe, ride so why would you expect more of a Citroen? Having experienced 5 Hydraulic Citroens over 35 years, none have ever developed leaks in the high pressure Hydraulic pumps or lines. I've only ever replaced one sphere, which hardly amounts to the description of a system that is too 'complex or expensive', unless of course you believe your cars should require no maintenance and you resent spending anything on them at all. My current C6 has travelled 120,000 kms without any trouble. It is solid, well sorted, performs strongly, and is extremely fuel efficient for a beast that weighs close to 2 tonnes. Perhaps Philip Moran's C5 has had an extremely hard life, been mistreated, or poorly serviced? Having owned a wide range of Japanese, German, and British cars (a few BMWs, SAABs and Mercedes Benzs included) I can honestly say that Citroens seem to suffer no greater a number of faults than their competitors and, as I said above, I've only ever replaced one sphere. Everything wears out eventually so to expect to not have to replace spheres on a Citroen at some stage is simply unrealistic. I've just replaced the shock absorbers on my E Class Mercedes at 155,000 kms but I'm not about to claim that this proves conventional suspension is a failure. It's just different. To understand a Citroen, you must drive a Citroen - and not just around the block. The capabilities of Hydractive suspension are simply world-beating, but they are only fully revealed after driving a Citroen through rough country roads, smooth highways and around cities. Then, the full range of the system's abilities are revealed.

My parents had a CX and it was superb. Hope Citroen will bring back this unique system in the near future. Their design and level of luxury are second to none. Wonderful piece of engineering!

Sorry for my bad English. Since 2004, I'm traveling with a Citroen. Twice a Citroen C5 Exclusive. From 2010 I drive a Citroen C6. In all the years I had no damage to these vehicles. Citroen is the best you can what happened. Quality and comfort.

I have my c6 now for 4 years... and yes it drives really good BUT i also had already some repairs to do! I spend around 1800 € on repairs and maintenance during these years what is, I think, still allright. It is something special and it is just stupid to compare it to, for example, an E class. The E class has got a suspension that is at least 30 years old technologie so it is quite logic that it isn't as refined but therefor maybe a bit more reliable.

I do not know if it is the best suspension in the world, but it is the best suspension I have ever experienced. By far. And although its softness the car is never "swimming". Since I own a C6 i am constantly checking the market to buy another one.

Both the C5 and C6 have sport settings to the suspension which make it a lot harder and help with cornering etc. The suspension on the C5 does not compare to that on the C6. It's like comparing an E class Merc to an S class.

We used to have GS-A, BX, and passanger experience in Xantia back in the late 90`s, drove C5 I. generation, and I drive occasionally my uncle`s C5 Tourer (with sporty front seats). Months ago I also occasionally drove several new C5 Aircrosses and facelifted C4 Cactuses (at Citroen dealership where I worked for a while) both with Progressive Hydraulic Cushions. Just so you know I have some experience in that department. :) Conclusion: Progressive Hydraulic Cushions comes from Rallye world that Citroën once again cleverly modified for comfortable ride - no electronics as you well know (which is cheaper to maintain I suppose if anything goes wrong). Seats are softer than in my uncle`s C5 Tourer because they provide additional cushioning in addition to the suspension. On the negative side - those same seats aren`t designed to hold you as well in corners than those in the C5 II but they were never ment to either. But the real drawback for me is that Progressive Hydraulic Cushions lack sophistication of Hydractive 3+ and all previous generations of that system. and that is sad.

Nowindays we dont have Citroens in the U.S. We had it before. An Citroen SM in 1972. And I saw the oldschool DS in the streets somewhere in Arizona las year.

The Citroen Xantia was in -94 the winter test of TM (Teknikan Maailma) as best. Because of the handling of the car. When i was in traffic school, i had citroen Xantia -94. when we went to handling circuit i had my citoen slide and come to control. My istructor said= that's how french car should behave. Thats it

@Spurdospaerde692

To be precise, the car in the Tekniikan Maailma (FI)/Teknikens Värld (SE) "moose avoidance test" was not any Xantia, but a Xantia Activa, first produced in 1995. In addition to the "normal" Xantia's (and XM's) already great Hydractive 2 suspension, the Activa also had separate hydraulic cylinders attached to the anti-roll bars, which kept the car flat during aggressive cornering. This was the only Citroën ever made with this system. The Activa achieved the highest max speeds in the TM/TV test, beating not only any other mass-produced people-carrier, but also every super sports car that was submitted to the test. I think it still holds the record. Unfortunately, in 2017 the cretins at Stellantis/PSA/Citroën decided that steel springs and drilling a few holes in regular shock absorbers are good enough, so now there's no longer any cars with any hydropneumatic suspension made, and thus no longer any point of buying a Citroën over any other marque.

such a refreshing video...

I love it. Astonishing experience of driving this car. Only minus is getting new car. None will be as comfortable as C6. I also have new C4 and it is better than any other golf-class car. In comfort way mostly. I've driven latest Seat Leon and it feels like war machine compared to C4. It is too loud and too hard. And C6 is like melody compared to BMW 5 series(2006, not mine) and VW Passat(2008, not mine either). So, this car is, AWESOME!

Citroen has achieved something in automotive history that put the challenge to the rest of the world to contemplate with.

Both my XM's and Xantia had 100 percent reliable suspension. Only minor problem on my present XM was a perished rubber fluid return pipe on the front strut which popped off but that was all. I would rather deal with a suspension sphere on a Citroen than a rusty old coil spring on any other car. A good proportion of my work as a mobile mechanic was replacing broken springs on 'normal cars'. So long as LHM and filters are changed at the correct interval, these cars are fine. Quirky but not scary to work on.

Depends on the Citroen model and year. On Xantias, XM's etc with the green LHM, I would change fluid and clean the filter every two years but certainly more times than Citroen's original guidelines. The C5, C6 etc used different hydraulic fluid and control system with far more electronic components and supposedly a longer service interval. As for spheres - you'll know when they are failing because the ride quality suffers. On the BX, Xantia and XM, the spheres go rock hard and makes the car undrivable. A failing accumulator sphere will force the system to work harder and you'll hear loud regular clicks, groans, hissing every few seconds from the front of the engine where the accumulator and regulator is bolted to.

Never had issues with suspension on the two XM's or the Xantia although the rear spheres can put up a bit of a fight when changing them. Sometimes the Xantia and XM front strut low pressure fluid return pipe can perish but they're easy to replace and should be considered a service item. Yet to find a modern car that can handle like a limo or a GTi with just a flick of a hydractive switch.

Hi Samu, I LOVE the car! One can not get a better handling car for less than 40 times its price! The next better handling car would be a Boxster (25 to 50 times the Vulcane price). I do have some problems though, as spare parts in Israel are getting hard to find. In general, it is the best cheap driver's car you can buy.

Yes I know RR used Citroen Suspension, which is fantastic because even they knew it was great. But since the discontinuation of those models RR has tried to create their own suspension systems to apparently "rival" Citroen's: something they failed at. And just to let you know that there is no such VW model as the "Patheon"? But what I do know is the VW PHAETON uses the same suspension as a Audi A8 which is just regular air suspension. Nothing to do with Citroen Suspension! Nowhere near it!

Incredibly amazing! Vive la France!

Yes it use to be used under licence by Mercedes and Rolls Royce, but they no longer use it. They have made their own suspension systems; all air-suspension based. But they still aren't capable of rivalling Citroen's innovation.

The Silverado is a pickup work truck. Not a car. Trucks use leaf springs because they are able to handle very high loads. (HD Silverados have a load capacity of over 900 kilos). Have you ever seen a dump truck with coil springs? Citroen has a brilliant history of suspension engineering. The original DS is one of the most innovative cars of all time. But the British, Germans, Czechs, Italians, Japanese and Americans have also contributed to automotive innovation. Modern cars are global.

The mechanical parts in the system has been in use since the 1950's so it's very well tested, and the spheres themselves lasts about 200000km nowadays and costs only from ~40€ per sphere to replace. Compare that to the cost of replacing a broken air cushion, on let's say a Audi A6 Allroad (which does not lost anywhere near as long) and you'll begin to wonder why other manufactures even bother with air suspension instead of hydropneumatic suspension. Especially since they don't even get close to the comfort level.

With the C6 it may suffer from the same problem,but who cares let them buy their euroboxes which will never be remembered as they lack any soul.

Citroen's suspension is used by Mercedes and other premium manufacturers under a license

Indeed. It seems that people are idiots. Instead of buying it cheap from citroen they switched to f*** expensive from mercedes. Thus making citroen to stop producing hydroactive fitted cars at all. I won't even try to understand this ultimate dumbness. Thanks for pointing out Mercedes license.

Unfortunatly, its the hard truth, most of modern french car are a pain to service and repair, older french car like the old AX or Clio did have there drawback but doing some a simple basic maintenance was possible

Part3, The state wants old cars off the road, local regulation makes maintaining a car past 20YO utterly expensive. Penalties include: 2 technical controls a year, sky high insurance, no towing insurance, no-low spare parts availability, parts self-import problems, extra emission test and constant hustle by police inspections. They want the car off the road and they make sure you got the massage.

Actually, Mercedes licensed the Citroen system as well. Most notably in the 560SEL.

Funny Citroen used to be at the top of their game with suspension and now they just make floaty dim witted SUVs

It is a little funny to find out that you do not drive a manual transmission French handling car... I want a Xsara VTS Loeb edition. BTW, I visited the website you sent me and could not find the parts I need... I will have ot keep up with eBay.fr

You're from Finland, that's normal.

Well Citreon suspension is the best in the world. Ferrari suspension is not electrocuted. It isn't that exclusive either, Cadillac uses it. It only comprises of magnetic particles. And Rolls Royce only uses a form of air-suspension. Citroen has been using this advanced hydro-pneumatic system since the 1930's. That is how far ahead of technology they were.

And fiability?

Not incredible need regular maintenance but if she wasnt a commercial fail due to the conception time (the concept presented in 98 took 6 yrs to lunch the product)her poor marketing management only like 23 384 from 2005 to 2012 a disaster(someone has been fired for this)she would be selled way more for making it rentable and showing a refiabilised version otherwise a lot of them are pretty nice in fiability but the ones who have problems with call her the affectuously "C666" i bet you wonder why if its the suspension you beter get a garage or come dirrectly to Citroën

Dream on. This is Citroen`s suspension. Bose made approximation of it but Citroen was the 1st back in the 50`s. This is the 3rd generation and slightly improved - Hydroactive 3+. Get your facts straight and check before you write something you know nothing about.
