I have a 2016 C3 Platinum model. Recently the audio system has been cutting out every 2 minutes whilst travelling or stationary, then recovering after about 25 seconds. Any thoughts, suggestions as to the fault welcome !

There are a huge number of posts on multiple forums about issues with touchscreens almost exclusively on 2016 cars. This seems to be related to using the audio equipment on DAB BBC channels. A software update seems to be the solution, but as my (now written off) car didn't ever suffer from this, I'm not sure which update is required. You could get it done by Citroen if the agent is clued in although I suspect many will deny all knowledge.
