X7 on the floor, no lift no pump

[vborovic]

and they will not give me the old pump back.

This is plain stupid, its not theirs ... this is daylight robbery ...

[Stickyfinger]

Umm....I gave in as they are replacing under the cars extended warranty......it's a shame as I would of liked to repair it.

Sorry to hear of the "Pigs" problems Sticky, but at least it should be sorted at no cost to you - always the inconvenience though. BTW I too require rear mudflaps (none fitted) so if you find any......

[Stickyfinger]

Well I just called them back about the "Other things on the List" that I left on a A4 piece of paper headed PLEASE CHECK taped on the dash, Service Books/Warranty on the seat......Oh no Sir, we have not seen that

Nice.....it just makes me more worried about what they are like

I'm very curious of what they intend to do with the faulty pump ...

[Stickyfinger]

"send it back to the company for checking"......or Scrap bin at the end of the month more like.

[vborovic]

or Scrap bin at the end of the month more like.

... in which case, it be better to return it to you ...

[Stickyfinger]

You expect LOGIC from a Dealer ?....................oh look, a flying pink elephant just floated past...

Pumps around £650, plus fitting At least you're not paying....

Regarding mud flaps, how about these?

thus happy.....

However, the cost of the warranty was a payment, just my £25 transfer fee has paid off for me (but NEVER has for household insurance). Ya pay ya money and play the game.

However the odds are FAR FAR better for me than them with a C5x7 than a Ford due to the cost of the "Common Faults" found on that type....this forum is great for this info before you change cars, the warranty inclusion in the cost of purchase was one of my "Prime needs" along with the correct Citroen suspenders and a 2ltr Auto. (I have always been convinced Autos are more gentle on the car long term).

For the Xantia, I think this type with external fittings is better than the original (unless you only use it for shows/summer.

I agree Sticky.
Years ago,(far too many), I always purchased s/h auto engines for 2 reasons. They were in a marginally higher state of tune and with auto it is difficult to abuse power take up and overrun. I well remember a colleague breaking a drive shaft playing the boy racer in a manual. Not someone you would ever accept a lift from

[Stickyfinger]

Did the Drive shat in a SAAB Carlson I had, the bloom of flame as the oil hit the hot exhaust prompted a Bus driver to run over to pull me out....he said it looked like the whole front exploded (Hot summer day, tires hot, road hot with high grip surface at some lights, dropped the clutch like the young idiot I was and boom)

Why can't you have the old pump? Remember if the extended warranty is offered by Citroen as opposed to the dealer, the dealer just invoices Citroen. Never let it be said there are dodgy dealers out there but the guys at Citroen want the damaged part as evidence. Same as if your Telly breaks under warranty, the dealer takes the old one back. What do Citroen do with the pump, throw it in the bin without even looking at it. It is called life in a world where too many folk are after a fast buck [emoji19]
