Lot's of other parts can be "refurbished", I would think the pump is one of them expensive parts.

How the hell can a new hydraulic pump take 3 (-expletive removed-) days to be delivered to a citroen dealer? :roll: Unbelievable...

That's quick enough, isn't it? When I order something, especially some specifics, it takes 2-3 days from Austria (there's some kind of distribution center for PSA parts) to Croatia ... which is a lot closer than say south and central UK, isn't it?

Not in my book. Parts for my Preludes (out of production since 96) are next day if in stock at Swindon or day after that, if in Belgium. Only time they go over 2 days is if they have to come from Japan.

Citroen not having a major part in stock in UK for a car that's basically still in production is absolutely bloody shocking IMO and it sure as s**t doesn't need to take 3 days to get something from France.
Do Citroen still have a parts distribution place in (coventry) or nothing at all in the UK now?
