I inherited my uncle's C5 that had been unused for years, lying in S Spain. I was paranoid having read about column lock problems before trying to retrieve the car. My father checked the column wasn't locked a few weeks before he and I flew back to meet a car transportation man. Column wasn't locked/locking which was good. So, we got the car loaded on the day and thank goodness we could push/steer the car. Same back in Edinburgh. In my garage and on stands since October 2019. I suspect I've moved the steering wheel a bit from time to time.
Suddenly the column lockedwhen I moved a front wheel a few weeks ago! Connected battery, turned key and it disengaged fine. Phew.
I have to say I didn't think I've seen the dealer recall situation beside the relay, but I assumed nonetheless that is was disabled so was very surprised it suddenly locked. Anyone explain why it wasn't locking then suddenly did..?
i think I too better buy an LMC5. On that note, where might be best to source one? Thanks
