Heating and defrosting problems with Citroen C2 - cause and solutions?
(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A Citroen C2 owner is experiencing issues with the heating/cooling system and mirror defrosting. The suspected cause is a faulty water valve in the cooling circuit. Another person shared a similar experience with a Citroen C4, where a defective cable connection or plug on the water valve was identified and repaired. It is also suggested that the thermostat could be a potential cause, and both components should be checked during an inspection.

Thanks for your help, buddy! Your experience really pointed me in the right direction. Some of my friends have also told me that it could be the thermostat. My Citroen has already done 73,497 KM and just had the last service. I guess it really is time to take it to the garage for an inspection. Thanks again!

No problem, always happy to help! I remember that they also checked the thermostat on my car. Of course, this could also be the reason, because both the water valve and the thermostat are essential components in the heating/cooling process. At 73,497 KM, both parts could well be failing. Maybe you can ask if they check both the water valve and the thermostat during the inspection. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get the problem solved soon and don't have to pay too much. Let us know later what you found out at the workshop. I'm curious if it was the same problem as my Citroen. Good luck!

Definitely, buddy! I'll ask if they can check both the thermostat and the water valve. I also hope it won't be too expensive. Your tips were really helpful. As soon as I have any news, I'll keep you posted. Thanks again and see you soon!

Hello, I had a similar problem with my 2008 Citroen C4. Well, I don't know much about cars, but I've been in a situation like this before. I then went to the garage and they found that the cable connection or the plug on the water valve was defective. It cost me exactly 155 euros to fix the problem. Can you tell us what model and year your car is? The more precise the data, the better we might be able to help you. Water valve problems can be complicated and often vary from model to model. Hope this helps you!
