Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? Some Citroen and DS cars with the DV5R E6.3 engine make too much nitrogen-oxide gas. This gas can harm the air outside.

What's happening? These cars were sold with engines that do not meet clean-air rules. The extra pollution is bad for nature.

Does this affect me? If you own one of these cars in France, your vehicle may be part of this problem.

What should I do? Take your car to a Citroen or DS dealer. They will check and fix the engine for free. Ask your dealer for details.
