Chris570 can tell you precisely Carsten but it was around GBP120 when arranged through AutomaticChoice. For you it'll be more as there is freight costs to and from Scotland.

There is no way to tell if a torque converter is bad but yours appears to be. It's normal practice to just have them rebuilt irrespective of condition - a bit like how you'd always replace a clutch on a manual car when doing work on the gearbox. It's virtually a consumable service item.

120£ - Thats a bargain. I've calculated at least 400-500£

A new from Citroën is pretty expensive.

I think it's a bargain too :-D

This is the company AutomaticChoice use and must have special arrangements with - Mackie Transmissions

It is good value when you see what they do to them!!!
