coastline taxis Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Hi what youve got is a few normal niggle and will have a good car once sorted as 120k is absolutley nothing for these cars Heater not working..... That will be the resistor on the side of the blower unit 30 to 40 quid from the dealers and slacken 2 screws to replace it.Im sure if you trace the wires from the switch theyl go to where the resistor is. Comm unit...... before replacing this try a bsi reset (do a search on hear for it). As one of your faults was the alternator so i take it youve had a few flat batterys and jump starts and you just never no with citroen electrics. Timing belt well youve just got to put that down to routine maintenance and a must when getting a new to you car.best regardsstev Quote
