C4VTS Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 This afternoon I was checking my screenwasher was full and then spotted a large metal object resting near the A/C compressor. Does anyone know what it is? or where it came from? Is it a C4 part or did the dealer leave something under my bonnet? Maybe kfk will know? http://aycu02.webshots.com/image/9001/2003360801005476360_rs.jpg http://aycu38.webshots.com/image/10077/2003317175127878499_rs.jpg Quote

kfk Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 No idea......but it looks like a bit of citroen! Quote
C4VTS Posted February 4, 2007 Author Posted February 4, 2007 No idea......but it looks like a bit of citroen! Thanks kfk ! I was hoping it was not a Citroen part. What makes you think it is? Do you think it is part of my C4 ? Quote
C4VTS Posted February 4, 2007 Author Posted February 4, 2007 There is no part number on the object, and I would expect to see a marking of some kind if it was from the C4. It does seem to have slightly damaged the radiator but don't think there is any leaks.I took these pictures as this is the area where I found it. http://aycu38.webshots.com/image/9957/2002962187936016348_rs.jpg http://aycu15.webshots.com/image/8254/2002979412245622282_rs.jpg Quote
lesmotor Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 It is from the 2.0 HDI, It's mounted next to the alternator! Trying to get a photo for you. Quote
sammys hdi vts Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 Been there done that! I had the same part fall off my 2.0 hdi vts last christmas, I only found out when the low coolant warning came on as it had punctured my radiator and drained it for me. I thnik it was a bracket to protect one of the fan belt componets. It fell off due to a poorly fitted bolt which was incorectly used at the factory. Citroen assist picked the car up Abbey Citroen in Redhill (surrey) ordered a new radiator and fixed it same day for free. Photos attached of the damage caused! Be aware as I was one of the first people for it to happen to as the garage had to make an official statement to Citroen on the fault! http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/andrew_seal/CIMG0945.jpghttp://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/andrew_seal/CIMG0943.jpghttp://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/andrew_seal/CIMG0942.jpghttp://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/andrew_seal/CIMG0941.jpghttp://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n104/andrew_seal/CIMG0944.jpg Quote
