WTD - series 1.5 bits

[Vince]

Hi guys, I need the following items and wondered what if anything people could help with?.... I dont necessarily need them all at once, its kind of a snag list to work through...although the dipstick and gearknob are urgently required items.

2.1TD dipstick - Mine is broken
Gearknob - again broken
Passenger side electric window switch
Drivers side rear manual window regulator
Passenger side front window regulator (mine is slow)
Front Hydraulic flow valve...sits near the front centre sphere
Rear dash mounted wiper switch - mine works but the image has worn off the front.
Glovebox strut
Rubber grommet at the front of the front wheel arch....rounded oblong one that no doubt splits from getting pounded by road spray
Rear taillights on the tailgate, left and right.
Drivers side seat - Velour brick style as per photograph. The rear seat back adjustment lever is broken on mine. Must be v good condition

Im sure there will be more stuff along the way but thats what springs to mind for now.

Im thinking if people have some items, the cxm would be a good place to trade......

Thanks
Vince

Seat pattern:

If you only need the drivers seat Vince then this might be worth following up:

The trouble is that is electric and Vince's is manual.

[Duke]

Are the runners/mechanisms easily changeable to convert electric to manual?

[robert_e_smart]

The runners will swop, its the backrest adjustment thats the problem. Still easy enough to power the seats though from one of the 12V sources nearby.

[Duke]

Ah right.

If I was in Vince's position I'd wait for a set of leather to come along, that'd finish the car off lovely...

[Vince]

True Duke, but I'm thinking of keeping this factory stock, just make sure everything works and isn't broken.

The other problem is that Cars pattern appears Unique!

Ive NOT seen another in that patten. Even the other J reg 2.1 TD Manual Base car I have has NOT got the same patten on it.... Though it is a Full Blown S1 car not an S2 as ir has a Single spoke wheel in it. So that trim in Vince's car is Base S1.5 ONLY patten.

Electric window winder Yes Vince, no doubt I have one, the switch ALSO, I told you I had TONS of switchs, even for the dash!!

Gear knob I beleve is the same as Xantias... I can get you one of those from a M reg S1 Xantia thats breaking too..

Rear manual window winder may be a problem though, Is that one also slow to go up or down?

The centre lights in the tailgate are one whole unit across the back, whats wrong with it?? OR are you wanting the inner bulb "curcuits"??

The lever on the side of the seats is not back rest adjustment, its seat height adjustment... Again, Im not sure if they are the same as Xantias ,, Back rest adjustment lever is on the front of the seat below your left knee..

So, I can get you some bits n peices. Another tip for you, if your window is slow, unscrew the door to pillar circular plug and clean the contacts up, a bad connection can cause a slow to move window.

Ah thanks Paul,

Your right, the bit thats broke is the seat height adjustment which to be fair doesnt bother me, it just looks bad.

The window switch I will take you up on, the rear window reg just doesnt work....its as if the splines have chewed up the regulator cog which i presume is made of plastic? Id like to get that back up and running if poss although its not the most important job in the scheme of things as Jack sits in that seat and he is 6 so isnt going to be manually winding windows..yet.

The gearknob i though was different to the Xantia although i know the series 2 Xant knobs differ from the series 1 ones?....if they are the same then again ill take one.

The rear lamps im going to try to sort out rather than replace. The problem is that one of them doesnt match as its a slightly duller red. Im going to remove and reposition the outer passenger side rear lamp unit. Its not level so with a series of rubber washers i have im going to try to get it aligned correctly. After that i have some red stained glass window film which i reckon will even out the colours across all the lamps. I know it works as i bought it for some passat taillights i modifed in years gone by.

The dipstick Paul is a piece i need most urgently....I presume its the same as the 2.1 Xantia also, but not sure about the 1.9td one?

We can trade at the cxm?

[citroenxm]

Yea 1.9 xud sticks are different...

yes series two xantia gear knobs are of a fatter rounder style and are different to s1 xm and xantia...

the window winder handle is plastic.. have those splines torn or is it defenatley the window winder itself??


ill get everything together i can help with for cxm no worries..
