Citroën C3 Variants We Check

• 1.2 EB2 PureTech petrol (82 bhp)
• 1.2 EB2DTS turbo (109 bhp)

Symptoms That Merit a Check

• High-pitched whining or squealing noise from engine bay under acceleration

• Excessive shaft play detectable by wiggling the turbo compressor blade by hand
• Oil contamination in the intercooler and charge-air pipes from seal failure
• Loss of boost pressure accompanied by loud turbo whistle

Diagnostic Process

• Turbo shaft play check — axial and radial play measured with dial gauge
• Turbo oil feed line inspection for restriction or blockage
• Charge-air system inspection for oil contamination from bearing seal failure
• Engine oil condition and service history review — clogged feed pipe removed and cleared

Model Context and Repair Decision

• 1.2 PureTech camshaft bearing oil starvation at startup on poorly maintained variants

Repair is considered where testing confirms a serviceable component and safe parts availability. Replacement is recommended only for confirmed wear, damage or a failed test. A written estimate follows diagnosis; no work starts without approval.
