Where to Find the Legal Chassis Number (VIN) on the Citroen C5 Aircross

Model: Citroen C5 Aircross MK 1 - Years 2017-2022
Part: Checks and maintenance

The legal chassis number is stamped letter by letter on the chassis, not the one on the plate located on the left side of the vehicle, in front of the driver. That is just a courtesy number used by dealers to move vehicles that are still without registration plates. The chassis number, which you should present at the DVLA for inspection and testing, or if stopped by the Police for a cross-check with your registration document, is located on the Citroen C5 Aircross, inside the engine compartment, on a plate positioned on a protrusion of the bodywork under the front windscreen on the passenger side, beneath the bonnet.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y

To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
