Removing the Shock Absorber on a Citroen C3

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Shocks

Replace the damaged shock absorber on a Citroen C3. Lift the car on a column lift and remove the front wheel. Use a socket wrench to unscrew the securing bolts of the shock absorber at the wheel hub (detach the brake line tubes with a screwdriver). Lift the bonnet and secure it, then unscrew the securing bolts of the shock absorber. Remove the shock absorber from its housing (place a support under the bar). Compare the old part with the new one and prepare for installation. Install the new shock absorber on the car by screwing in all the previously removed bolts.

This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
