The 2022 model year brought a significant update to the DS 3, dropping the "Crossback" name and adopting the DS brand's latest design language. The E-TENSE electric version gained a larger 54kWh battery with 250 miles of range (up from 212 miles) and a more powerful 155bhp motor. Inside, a new 10.3-inch HD touchscreen became standard across the range.
The timing belt runs in oil and can degrade, shedding debris that blocks the oil pickup and can lead to vacuum pump failure (affecting braking assistance) and total engine failure.
BlueHDi diesel models frequently suffer from AdBlue tank deformation or injector crystallisation, often requiring a complete tank replacement.
