DaveHerns Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 I learnt today that Traffic Walton on the Hill have gone out of business . Shame as I was quite impressed with themI'm now back to dealing with Lovekyns in Ewell who have a Kia franchise as well now. They shut down last year and reopened under new managementIs this the motor trade generally or Citroen giving their dealers an especially hard time ?Dave Quote
Johndouglas Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 I'm now back to dealing with Lovekyns in Ewell who have a Kia franchise as well now. So am I - and I'm less than impressed with them. I asked them to get me a new plip. Not having heard from them after two weeks, I went back to them. My order had disappeared. If it's parts you're after, try the Citroen parts dealer at Longmead (opposite the tip) I wanted a temperature sender for our Xsara and they get it in overnight. Unfortunately, as far as I know, they don't do repairs. Quote

Johndouglas Posted January 20, 2008 Posted January 20, 2008 Mine is the 2005 model which will be the same as yours. 138 6 speed. What do you mean when you say "when it's going well". Incidentally, mine is here with me in southern Spain for the winter. Quote
DaveHerns Posted January 23, 2008 Author Posted January 23, 2008 I've had problems with loss of power - it feels like the accelerator pedal had suddenly lost all effect. This took 4 or 5 visits to the garage and some angry conversations with the leasing Co to get resolvedCurrently when it's parked for an hour or 2 the rear suspension sinks right down while the front stays upIt's going into Lovekyns next Wednesday for that to to be looked into Everyone at work says I should have got a Honda Accord Estate - it may be reliable but also a wierd looking estate . I still like my C5 especially all the "toys" the Exclusive spec comes with Dave Quote
