timoat Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Hello everybody, I'm about to take a plunge and buy a second hand citroen relay, (jumper) it's from 2004,its this one http://www.blocket.se/vi/72501216.htm Its only done 90000 km, has recently had its clutch replaced (2016) and has been regularly serviced, most recent the big 10 year one. But I'd like to know if there are any inherent problems you guys know about that I should look out for. The guy says that the AC is out of Comission, it needs to be trouble shot. How much is that usually to fix? He also says the side door leaks, I'm guessing it's because of the dent there, and that the door needs to be replaced. This is going to be a camper conversion and it will serve as my home for the next 3 years as I travel across Europe, so I'd like it to be reliable. Any info or experiences you know will be most helpful Quote
paul.h Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Welcome to the forum. If the air con has not been used for some time the seals in the system could have dried out and it could be expensive to fix. However, it might just need to be regassed which in the UK is around 50 pounds - if you definately need air con then try to get the seller to sort it before agreeing to buy the van. Quote
timoat Posted June 3, 2017 Author Posted June 3, 2017 Thanks you for the reply! I will be travelling mostly in the south of Europe so yes, air con would be good to have. From him it's sound like it hasn't been used in many years. The asking price is 5500 gbp, I am aiming to get him down to 4500. Any other known issues with this engine? Quote
