CITROEN DEALERSHIP/no dipsticks. Xm

[Bertie-Bassett]

Just at citroen main dealers,and they've checked their system and nothing comes up for XM. NO Dipsticks available.
I got a price for spheres. £159 each !!! And £175 for accumulator sphere!!

i just looked up 2.0 turbo on service citroen and it shows two different dip sticks, and both are showing as still available from the dealer,

are you sure your dealer could be bothered to check properly,,

if you send me the last 8 digits of your chassis/VIN No. i will get you the correct price and OE part No. for your car,

I've always found there to be plenty of dipsticks in the main dealers.

DO NOT Get spheres from GSF!

Get them from www.aepdirect.co.uk . They ARE far better IFHS spheres, will have been gassed up in the last few months, and NOT be flat.

I used to get them from GSF, and they have been up to a year old, Flat, had a short life and so on.

AEP ones are virtually faultless... You wont regret it.

Never goto the dealer for spheres Tony!

Well the lad took my reg number and went away and checked for part, and he came back stating nothing was showing for anything for my car??
