To top up the engine oil on the Citroën C5, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine compartment: here you will find the cap for topping up located at the top centre of the engine block. By unscrewing this cap, you can add the necessary amount of engine oil into the system; after this has been added, close the filler cap.
